In my Android app, I have a list with a SwitchCompat to filter the list data. The default theme can't serve my purpose what I need is a iOS like switch. I have no idea how can I customize it to look exactly like the iOS switch. Thanks for reading.
<androidx.appcompat.widget.SwitchCompat
android:id="#+id/switch_1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:background="#xml/custom_switch_background_main"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.SwitchOverlay"/>
This is what I have archived so far
custom_switch_background_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_checked="false" android:drawable="#xml/custom_switch_background" />
<item android:state_checked="true" android:drawable="#xml/custom_switch_background" />
</selector>
custom_switch_background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<corners android:radius="50dp" />
<solid android:color="#color/transparent" />
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#color/hello" />
</shape>
This is what I want
You can achieve something like:
with the standard MaterialButtonToggleGroup:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButtonToggleGroup
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:selectionRequired="true"
app:singleSelection="true">
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
app:shapeAppearanceOverlay="#style/ShapeAppearanceOverlay.App.rounded"
style="?attr/materialButtonOutlinedStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="ITEM1"/>
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
app:shapeAppearanceOverlay="#style/ShapeAppearanceOverlay.App.rounded"
style="?attr/materialButtonOutlinedStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="ITEM2"/>
</com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButtonToggleGroup>
with:
<style name="ShapeAppearanceOverlay.App.rounded" parent="">
<item name="cornerSize">50%</item>
</style>
If you want the border you can wrap the MaterialButtonToggleGroup in a container (LinearLayout, CardView....) applying a stroke a small padding.
If you want the button with rounded corners on both side you can check something like this question.
I think you should use sliding tab layout instead of switchcompat to fulfill your requirement. I have found one third party library that's looks like same switch as you want.
Click Here to Use This Library
I achieved the design by using a custom vector (and the text inside was a mask) which was replacement for the switch’s state indicator. then I changed the switch compat background vector with a custom border design as well to achieve the border. I’ll update this answer again soon.
I want to apply ripple effect when any item click. But I can't apply each and every item
android:background="#color/tabColor"
background already set so how to use following code
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
<TextView
android:id="#+id/mistake_btn_tv"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:layout_gravity="bottom"
android:background="#color/tabColor"
android:gravity="center"
android:requiresFadingEdge="none"
android:text=""
android:textColor="#color/md_white_1000"
android:textSize="#dimen/txt_20"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:typeface="monospace"/>
I expect both are working there, my background "tabColor" and also ripple effect
You can use a custom drawable file for ripple effect. Here I am sharing code with you. Just implement that code. Hope it will work fine.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:color="#color/colorAccent"
tools:ignore="NewApi">
<item android:id="#android:id/background">
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#color/white"/>
<corners
android:radius="5dp"/>
<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#color/gray_text"/>
<padding android:left="0dip" android:top="0dip" android:right="0dip" android:bottom="0dip" />
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>
and set it to background:-
android:background="#drawable/border_ripple_gray"
You should use android:foreground="?attr/selectableItemBackground" for ripple effect.
when you have set background already do this in your TextView XML code.
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:foreground="?android:attr/selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
use this library for best ripple effect..
link
Add this line in your style.xml
<item name="android:colorControlHighlight" tools:targetApi="lollipop">#color/backgroundWhite</item>
and use view property:-
android:foreground="?attr/selectableItemBackground"
I am late to the party but above solutions are not working for me. So I am using MaterialButton like this,
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
style="?attr/buttonBarButtonStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:minWidth="0dp"
android:minHeight="0dp"
android:paddingHorizontal="#dimen/padding_8dp"
android:text="Clickable Text"
android:textColor="your text color"
app:backgroundTint="#android:color/transparent"
app:rippleColor="ripple effect color" />
Here, style="?attr/buttonBarButtonStyle" and app:backgroundTint="#android:color/transparent" will make this button as transparent background so that it will look like TextView and everything else will be done automatically.
I'm trying to create an outlined Material Components button, however I need it to have a semi-transparent background in addition to the stroke.
This is my XML code so far:
<android.support.design.button.MaterialButton
android:id="#+id/foo"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.TextButton"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"
app:backgroundTint="#CFFF"
app:strokeColor="#color/colorAccent"
app:strokeWidth="2dp" />
And this is what this looks like:
The issue is that some of the background is visible outside the stroke around the button (the larger the stroke width, the more white pixels getting out).
For example, here's a 5dp stroke:
Is there a way to fix this, a better way to set the background color, or anything?
Just use the Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.OutlinedButton style:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.OutlinedButton"
app:strokeWidth="2dp"
app:strokeColor="#color/colorAccent"
app:backgroundTint="#3ad64f"
.../>
If you create a style of that you have to remove the app: In my example this style is called SecondButton
<style name="SecondButton" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.OutlinedButton">
<item name="android:theme">#style/SecondButtonTheme</item>
<item name="backgroundTint">#color/second_button_back</item>
<item name="strokeColor">#color/second_button_text</item>
<item name="strokeWidth">1dp</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#color/second_button_text</item>
</style>
Use it like that in you
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
style="#style/SecondButton"
.../>
You could try to create your button in drawables directly in xlm based on this :
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="backgroundcolor"/>
<stroke android:color="strokecolor" android:width="2dp" />
<!--corners allow us to make the rounded corners button-->
<corners android:radius="15dp" />
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
founded here : https://android--code.blogspot.fr/2015/01/android-rounded-corners-button.html
and use it like this in your layout :
android:background="#drawable/nameofbutton.xml"
I am trying to set the background color of a button in my app and I am unable to achieve the result that I want...
The color that I am trying to set is holo_green_light(#ff99cc00). In order to do it, I am using setColorFilter(0xff99cc00, PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);
The color that I get is not the holo_green_light but a mix of lightgrey and holo_green_light.
I have tried using the LightingColorFilter without much success.
Is there a way to do it programatically, so that the button appears like a button and not a flat rectangle with the color that I need.
If you want to keep the general styling (rounded corners etc.) and just change the background color then I use the backgroundTint property
android:backgroundTint="#android:color/holo_green_light"
This is my way to do custom Button with a different color:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<stroke android:width="3dp"
android:color="#80FFFFFF" />
<corners android:radius="25dp" />
<gradient android:angle="270"
android:centerColor="#90150517"
android:endColor="#90150517"
android:startColor="#90150517" />
</shape>
This way you set as background:
<Button android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button"
android:layout_marginBottom="25dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:background="#drawable/button" />
If you don't mind hardcoding it you can do this ~> android:background="#eeeeee" and drop any hex color # you wish.
Looks like this....
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView1"
android:text="#string/ClickMe"
android:background="#fff"/>
Create /res/drawable/button.xml with the following content :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
<!-- you can use any color you want I used here gray color-->
<solid android:color="#90EE90"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="3dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="3dp"
android:topLeftRadius="3dp"
android:topRightRadius="3dp"/>
</shape>
And then you can use the following :
<Button
android:id="#+id/button_save_prefs"
android:text="#string/save"
android:background="#drawable/button"/>
Just use a MaterialButton and the app:backgroundTint attribute:
<MaterialButton
app:backgroundTint="#color/my_color_selector"
Why not just use setBackgroundColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.holo_light_green))?
Edit: If you want to have something which looks more like an Android button you are going to want to create a gradient and set it as the background. For an example of this, you can check out this question.
No need to be that hardcore.
Try this :
YourButtonObject.setBackground(0xff99cc00);
Try this
<androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="34dp"
android:text="Check Out"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:background="#54c2bc"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="9sp"/>
In order to keep the style, use:
int color = Color.parseColor("#99cc00");
button.getBackground().mutate().setColorFilter(new PorterDuffColorFilter(color, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC));
In addition to Mark Proctor's answer:
If you want to keep the default styling, but have a conditional coloring on the button, just set the backgroundTint property like so:
android:backgroundTint="#drawable/styles_mybutton"
Create the associated file /res/drawable/styles_mybutton.xml, then use the following template and change the colors as per your tastes:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- Disabled state-->
<item android:state_enabled="false"
android:color="#android:color/white">
</item>
<!-- Default state-->
<item
android:color="#cfc">
</item>
</selector>
try this
app:backgroundTint="#color/colorGreen"
With version 1.2.0-alpha06 of material design library, now we can use android:background="..." on MaterialButton components:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
android:background="#fff"
...
/>
I want to create custom button and I need it to be circle. How can I create a circle button?
I do not think that be possible with draw9patch.
Also I do not know how to make custom button!
Do you have any suggestion?
Use xml drawable like this:
Save the following contents as round_button.xml in drawable folder
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_pressed="false">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#fa09ad"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item android:state_pressed="true">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#c20586"/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
Android Material Effect: Although FloatingActionButton is a better option, If you want to do it using xml selector, create a folder drawable-v21 in res and save another round_button.xml there with following xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#c20586">
<item>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#fa09ad"/>
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>
And set it as background of Button in xml like this:
<Button
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:background="#drawable/round_button"
android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal"
android:text="hello"
android:textColor="#fff" />
Important:
If you want it to show all these states (enabled, disabled, highlighted etc), you will use selector as described here.
You've to keep both files in order to make the drawable backward-compatible. Otherwise, you'll face weird exceptions in previous android version.
Markushi wrote a circle button widget with amazing effects. Click here!
With the official Material Components library you can use the MaterialButton applying a Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.Icon style.
Something like:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
android:layout_width="48dp"
android:layout_height="48dp"
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Button.Icon"
app:icon="#drawable/ic_add"
app:iconSize="24dp"
app:iconPadding="0dp"
android:insetLeft="0dp"
android:insetTop="0dp"
android:insetRight="0dp"
android:insetBottom="0dp"
app:shapeAppearanceOverlay="#style/ShapeAppearanceOverlay.MyApp.Button.Rounded"
/>
Currently the app:iconPadding="0dp",android:insetLeft,android:insetTop,android:insetRight,android:insetBottom attributes are needed to center the icon on the button avoiding extra padding space.
Use the app:shapeAppearanceOverlay attribute to get rounded corners. In this case you will have a circle.
<style name="ShapeAppearanceOverlay.MyApp.Button.Rounded" parent="">
<item name="cornerFamily">rounded</item>
<item name="cornerSize">50%</item>
</style>
The final result:
With jetpack compose you can use:
Button(
onClick = { /* Do something! */ },
modifier = Modifier.width(48.dp).height(48.dp),
shape = CircleShape
) {
Icon(Icons.Filled.Add, "")
}
AngryTool for custom android button
You can make any kind of custom android button with this tool site...
i make circle and square button with round corner with this toolsite..
Visit it may be i will help you
For a FAB looking button this style on a MaterialButton:
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.ExtendedFloatingActionButton"
app:cornerRadius="28dp"
android:layout_width="56dp"
android:layout_height="56dp"
android:text="1" />
Result:
If you change the size be careful to use half of the button size as app:cornerRadius.
You can use MaterialButton from AndroidX material library
<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
android:layout_width="75dp"
android:layout_height="75dp"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
android:insetLeft="0dp"
android:insetTop="0dp"
android:insetRight="0dp"
android:insetBottom="0dp"
app:cornerRadius="50dp"
app:icon="#drawable/ic_camera"
app:iconGravity="textStart"
app:iconPadding="0dp"
app:iconSize="35dp" />
and it will be like this
if you want use VectorDrawable and ConstraintLayout
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/ok_button"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:foreground="?attr/selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
android:background="#drawable/circle_button">
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/icon_of_button"
android:layout_width="32dp"
android:layout_height="32dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:srcCompat="#drawable/ic_thumbs_up"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/text_of_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/icon_of_button"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:textColor="#android:color/white"
android:text="ok"
/>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
</FrameLayout>
circle background: circle_button.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="1000dp" />
<solid android:color="#41ba7a" />
<stroke
android:width="2dip"
android:color="#03ae3c" />
<padding
android:bottom="4dp"
android:left="4dp"
android:right="4dp"
android:top="4dp" />
</shape>
Unfortunately using an XML drawable and overriding the background means you have to explicitly set the colour instead of being able to use the app style colours.
Rather than hardcode the button colours for every behaviour I opted to hardcode the corner radius, which feels marginally less hacky and retains all the default button behaviour (changing colour when it's pressed and other visual effects) and uses the app style colours by default:
Set android:layout_height and android:layout_width to the same value
Set app:cornerRadius to half of the height/width
(It actually appears that anything greater than or equal to half of the height/width works, so to avoid having to change the radius every time you update the height/width, you could instead set it to a very high value such as 1000dp, the risk being it could break if this behaviour ever changes.)
Set android:insetBottom and android:insetTop to 0dp to get a perfect circle
For example:
<Button
android:insetBottom="0dp"
android:insetTop="0dp"
android:layout_height="150dp"
android:layout_width="150dp"
app:cornerRadius="75dp"
/>
here is how you can perform simply, make a drawable resource file in drawable.xml. Say round_button.xml and then paste the following code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape
android:shape="oval">
<solid
android:color="#color/button_start_gradient_color"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item
android:drawable="#drawable/microphone"/>
</layer-list>
Note:- use your own color and drawable resource as i have used #drawable/microphone
Following is the result

If you want to do with ImageButton, use the following. It will create round ImageButton with material ripples.
<ImageButton
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_settings_6"
android:background="?selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
android:padding="10dp"
/>
Create a new vector asset in the drawable folder.
You can import your PNG image as well, and convert the file to SVG online at https://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-svg. The higher the resolution, the better the conversion will be.
Next, create a new vector asset from that SVG file.
This is a sample vector circle image you can use. Copy the code to an xml file in the drawables folder.
ic_check.xml:
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Use this image in your button:
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/btn_level1"
android:layout_width="36dp"
android:layout_height="36dp"
android:background="#drawable/ic_check"
/>
Your button will be a circle button.
