Attempting to alter the colour of a TextView at runtime, text "disappears"
<p>I'm trying to alter the properties of a TextView at run time, and one of the things I'm trying to do is to alter the text colour when the user presses a button, however when the user presses the button the text simply "disappears". </p>

<pre><code>    // Changes colour of team name text when a colour button is pressed 
    bColourPink.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            tvTeamName.setTextColor(R.color.pink); 
        }
    });
</code></pre>

<p>The colour resource is working as intended in other areas of the program (i.e. displaying the intended colour correctly). </p>

<p>In researching the problem I found someone else had the same issue because their colour resources were #rgb so it was setting the alpha as 0, however I altered my colour resources to #aarrggbb format and I am still having the same issue. </p>
