Rounded linear layout leaving extra space on corners - android

i am creating a rounded linear layout with some buttons and textviews, i have used a custom selector as background of layout. My problem is that layout have extra space on corners how to remove this? any help will be appreciated
here is my code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp"
>
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="15dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topRightRadius="15dp"
/>
<stroke android:width="2dip"
android:color="#color/#275D69"/>
</shape>
Layout:
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/selector"
/>
Current output:
Dont want that space where i have placed red marks.

With below code you have rounded background with least space on corner
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:padding="10dp"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
<stroke
android:width="2dip"
android:color="#275D69" />
</shape>
this may include space on corner but it's too low.
just reduce radius value.

Try to use this approach, is not the most clear solution but for me works:
Create a Layout container with transparent background, and use it as a container of your rounded layout
<LinearLayout
.....
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
......>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/selector"
android:orientation="vertical">
<!-- content of the rounded ll -->
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
The white spaces should be disappeared

Here is a solution you need to follow:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="15dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topRightRadius="15dp" />
<stroke
android:width="2dip"
android:color="#275D69"/>
</shape>
Now in main xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:margin="10dp"
android:background="#drawable/selector"
android:orientation="vertical">
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Problem solved!

You can make rounded corners using cardView
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginLeft="6dp"
android:layout_marginRight="6dp"
android:layout_marginTop="6dp"
app:cardCornerRadius="5dp"
app:cardBackgroundColor="#D3D3D3"
app:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false"
card_view:cardPreventCornerOverlap="false">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="3dp" />
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="15dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topRightRadius="15dp" />
<stroke android:width="0dip"
android:color="#color/#275D69"/>
</shape>
<corners android:radius="6dip" />
Put corner radius whatever you want.

After getting pissed for 2 days I finally found it .
It cannot be solved by any drawable files or by editing the canvas but simply by making the layout as base layout.
There are several methods and stuffs under values you have to choose the right ones and add it in your styles.
First add these to your styles.xml
<style name="AppBottomSheetDialogTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.BottomSheetDialog">
<item name="bottomSheetStyle">#style/CustomBottomSheetStyle</item>
</style>
<style name="CustomBottomSheetStyle" parent="Widget.Design.BottomSheet.Modal">
<item name="android:background">#drawable/drawable_round_bottom_sheet</item>
</style>
Now the most important part is to call the AppBottomDialogue for this I used this
override fun getTheme(): Int {
return R.style.AppBottomSheetDialogTheme
}
Now you can choose whatever to do with your method I used ImagesView inside ConstraintLayout you can directly clip it no problem.

Ripple effect over imageview

To describe my problem i created small example.
I have linearlayout with imageview and textview. For linearlayout i've set ripple drawable as background. But when i click or long click on linearlayout ripple animation shows under imageview. How show animation over imageview ?
main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/activity_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linear"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:background="#drawable/ripple"
android:clickable="true"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:src="#mipmap/index" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="This is ripple test"
android:textColor="#FF00FF00" />
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
drawable-v21/ripple.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="#FFFF0000">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#FF000000"/>
</shape>
</item>
</ripple>
drawable/ripple.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_pressed="true">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="3dp" />
<solid android:color="#FFFF0000" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:state_focused="true">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="3dp" />
<solid android:color="#FFFF0000" />
</shape>
</item>
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="3dp" />
<solid android:color="#FF000000" />
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
screenshot how it looks now:
Add the ripple like this
android:foreground="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
based on this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/35753159/2736039
Add android:background="#null" for the ImageView
If your app needs to run on API < 23, you won't be able to use the foreground attribute on views other than FrameLayout, which means adding another [useless] level in the view tree hierarchy.
Another solution is to wrap your image with a <ripple>, set it as your ImageView's background, and use tint and tintMode to "hide" the src image so the background image that has the ripple over it is visible.
<!-- In your layout file -->
<ImageView
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:background="#drawable/image_with_ripple"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/image"
android:tint="#android:color/transparent"
android:tintMode="src_in" />
<!-- drawable/image_with_ripple.xml -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ripple
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:color="?colorControlHighlight">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/image" />
</ripple>
Not only this works on API 21+ but if your image has rounded corners – or is another type of non-rectangle shape, like a star or a heart icon – the ripple will remain in its bounds instead of filling the view's rectangle bounds, which gives a better look in some cases.
See this Medium article for an animated GIF to see how this technique compares to using a <FrameLayout> or the foreground attribute.
Resolve for API < 21
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/favorite_season"
style="?android:attr/borderlessButtonStyle"
android:background="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:layout_width="25dp"
android:layout_height="25dp"
android:layout_margin="22dp"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_star"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent" />
Simple use these two lines as attribute in that ImageView.
android:background="?attr/selectableItemBackgroundBorderless"
android:clickable="true"

Best way to Implement textview inside circular image/rectangle in android

I am working on an Android app where I need to show some text inside circle like
The text is dynamic.Similarly I want to implement textview inside rectangle shape like
I found out that shape xml file can be used to draw some shapes like
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<corners android:radius="20dip"/>
<stroke android:color="#color/colorPrimary" android:width="5dip"/>
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
</shape>
But it is not proper as I want some empty space between text and circle.I also tried to use android:background in textview but could not achieve the above mentioned scenario.
What is the Best way to implement above scenario?
How such similar scenarios can be implemented?
Can I use some custom images so that circle/rectangle shapes can be changed and how to achieve this?
You can use something like this..
btn_bg.xml
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners android:radius="50dp" />
<solid android:color="#000"/>
</shape>
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/activity_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Button
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:text="Total Count"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:textSize="36dp"
android:background="#drawable/btn_bg"
android:textColor="#fff"
android:id="#+id/btn"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
Try this:-
In your xml:-
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/test">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="11"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
#drawable/test
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<corners android:radius="20dip"/>
<size android:height="40dp" android:width="40dp"/>
<stroke android:color="#color/colorPrimary" android:width="2dip"/>
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
</shape>

Can't draw a line?

I want to draw a line as ImageView's background.But it doesn't work?
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="line">
<solid android:color="#FF0000FF" />
<size android:width="10dp"
android:height="2dp"/>
</shape>
Just a demo.
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/dividing_line"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" />
ImageView has no content so size will be 0x0dp. If you want a divider try setting the width to match_parent and the height to whatever you feel comfortable with (2dp for example).
Update: Try this.
In your layout file:
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="4dp"
android:background="#drawable/dividing_line"
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" />
The drawable:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="line">
<stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#0000FF"/>
<size android:height="2dp" />
</shape>
It is working for me.
As pointed out by TheTool if you just want a divider the easier solution is to add
<View android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="2dp"
android:background="#color/yourColor" />
to your layout file.

Add gradient to imageview

I want to add a gradient on the bottom of my image . Something like this :
I tried something like this but I only get the gradient no image..
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/trendingImageView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/trend_donald_sterling"
android:src="#drawable/trending_gradient_shape"
/>
trending_gradient_shape:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<gradient
android:angle="90"
android:endColor="#android:color/darker_gray"
android:startColor="#android:color/darker_gray" />
<corners android:radius="0dp" />
</shape>
You need two layers: An ImageView, and a View on top of that with your gradient as android:background. Put these two Views in a FrameLayout:
<FrameLayout
... >
<ImageView
...
android:src="#drawable/trend_donald_sterling" />
<View
...
android:background="#drawable/trending_gradient_shape"/>
</FrameLayout>
Simply set the alpha value in your gardient.xml:
Your imageView:
android:background="#drawable/trend_donald_sterling"
android:src="#drawable/trending_gradient_shape"
Your gradient xml file:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<gradient
android:angle="90"
android:endColor="#00ffffff"
android:startColor="#aa000000"
android:centerColor="#00ffffff" />
<corners android:radius="0dp" />
</shape>
In the color value, the first two places after # correspond to the alpha value, while the rest are the actual color value in R G B format, two for each.
try using the "foreground" attribute in your imageview
<ImageView
...
android:src="#drawable/trend_donald_sterling"
android:foreground="#drawable/trending_gradient_shape" />
it worked for me.
Use android:foreground="..." instead of android:background="..."
Now you won't need to put ImageView and View inside a FrameLayout!
So your final code will be:
ImageView
<ImageView
...
android:foreground="#drawable/trend_donald_sterling"/>
Drawable
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<gradient
android:angle="90"
android:endColor="#00ffffff"
android:startColor="#aa000000"
android:centerColor="#00ffffff" />
<corners android:radius="0dp" />
</shape>
this is how im gonna do,
i used relative layout as my parent layout, use the following code
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/img_sample"/>
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/gradiant"/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="1">
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.55"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.25"
android:text="Events"
android:gravity="bottom"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:textColor="#ffffff"/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="0.25"
android:text="Some description about the events goes here"
android:textSize="14sp"
android:textColor="#ffffff"/>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
hope you can figure out, here i attach my gradiant code below.use it inside the drawable folder....
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<gradient
android:angle="90"
android:endColor="#00ffffff"
android:startColor="#aa000000"
android:centerColor="#00ffffff" />
<corners android:radius="0dp" />
</shape>
This is an easy way that creates a similar effect yet doesn't actually have the image disappear. Sometimes using the foreground attribute is not the best for the gradient, especially if using a motionlayout or you have nested scrollviews. Create an entirely new imageview and set the background to the gradient.
XML With Both Imageviews
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/main_imageView"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/peakpx__1_"
ads:layout_constraintHeight_percent=".55"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/main_imageView_gradient"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
ads:layout_constraintHeight_percent=".55"
android:background="#drawable/gradient_theme_background"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="#id/main_imageView"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="#id/main_imageView"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="#id/main_imageView" />
Then for the gradient, I use black #000000 for darker themes, and white #ffffff for lighter ones. A lot of answers I see on this are not adding the center color. This is important if you want to have the gradient start closer to the edge of the image.
gradient_background
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:type="linear"
android:endColor="#ff000000"
android:centerColor="#00000000"
android:startColor="#00000000"/>
</shape>
**1> Create file black_shadow.xml**
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape>
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:startColor="#00000000"
android:centerColor="#9c000000"
android:endColor="#000000"
android:type="linear" />
</shape>
</item>bla
</selector>
**2> Just add below line in Imageview.**
android:foreground="#drawable/black_shadow"

Android TextView Background

i have a design which demands a background like the image below for the number on the right hand side. Is there any we can achieve this in Android ?
Will i need to make a 9 patch image and set it as a background ?
First, create a shape to have rounded corners.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF"/>
<corners android:radius="5px"/>
<padding android:left="0dp" android:top="0dp" android:right="0dp" android:bottom="0dp" />
</shape>
Then apply this as the background to your Views:
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_edges">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/mytext"
android:layout_width="200dip"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="blah blah blah blah"
android:padding="6dip"
android:textColor="#000000" />
</LinearLayout>
You may need to do some tweaking. You may even be able to discard the LinearLayout and set the android:background of the TextView to #drawable/rounded_edges
First create a drawable resource.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- res/drawable/rounded_textview.xml -->
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
<solid android:color="#cccccc"/>
<corners
android:bottomRightRadius="15dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topLeftRadius="15dp"
android:topRightRadius="15dp"/>
</shape>
Then reference this drawable in your layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dip"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_textview" />
</LinearLayout>
One of the good Reference :
TextView with rounded corners
Thanks.
I know this is an old question but for anyone who struggles with this, I strongly recommend ViewBadger library
