Wrong CheckBoxPreference title color on kitkat device using AppCompat22

Question

I have an issue with the title color of CheckBoxPreference in my settings screen. I am using AppCompat with appcompat-v7:22.2.0.

On a Lollipop device, no issue. AppCompat lib works as expected, that is, CheckBoxPreference title is painted in textColorPrimary.

But on a kitkat device, CheckBoxPreference title is painted in textColorSecondary color instead of textColorPrimary color.

My color set up is :

<style name="AppTheme.Base" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light">
    <item name="android:textColorSecondary">@color/textColorSecondary</item>
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/textColorPrimary</item>
</style>

In fact I have doubts now about CheckBoxPreference being "Material Design backward compatible".

Could you please confirm that it is backward compatible ? Any idea, workaround? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Did you try to add the item below?
<item name="android:textColor">@color/textColorPrimary</item>

It seems to work but I'm not sure if it's the right solution.
