I wonder how can I create such a background in Android as shown on the image below:
I know how to create gradient background and I found out how to use patterns but how can I combine both of them?

Android: how to create a background from pattern?

Hi I wanna set set background gradient for button with kotlin in programming not use XML
how I can create it ?
like this
image
If you don't want to use XML, then you'll have to at least include an image asset that contains such background into the drawable folder of your application.
Once you do that, it should be as simple as calling
yourImageView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.you_background_image_asset)
I am developing an android application with very complex design here is how it should look
I want to achieve this star-like design on the lower half of the image. Icons would represent buttons as well.
What I tried before coming here is
https://github.com/ManuelPeinado/ImageLayout
But that didn't work out so well.
Does anyone had similar experience ?
Make an image like that as layout background and place buttons with transparent background wherever u want.
Is that possible to have a custom ProgressBar in Android like this:
I mean:
Not spinning (static)
Progress with one color and remaining area with another color
With text in center
If that's not possible, what's the nearest result that I can have? Maybe using XML Shapes? Thanks!
There is not a standard Android component for reaching this result.
However, there is a library that you can use to achieve that effect.
Check this library.
You can customize this component as you like and use it on your xml layouts like a Custom View.
Check this library: https://github.com/wasabeef/awesome-android-ui/blob/master/pages/Progress.md. It does what you want.
Does any one have any idea of creating a custom component like the below image instead of using the image itself.
I know how to create a rectangle (a rounded one using the xml and not in java) which was discussed in the link here but i am not able to work with something like the pointer part.
does anyone have an idea to do this i would be happy if i am suggested.
Create a class that extends PopupWindow and set the background through code so that you can replace its color.
Here is a easy sample PopupWindow: http://www.ceveni.com/2009/09/popup-window-in-android-sample-program.html
See this post to know how to change/replace colors in a drawable: How to change colors of a Drawable in Android?
The adjust() method from that post is enough for you.
Create a new PopupWindow, load the bg drawable, change its color and set the new drawable to the popupWindow.
You can make use of customized popup window. I never tried it before but you can give a try If you succeed please share it here....
is there some way how to access android system private drawable: ic_btn_round_more?
This is the more icon which is used
in DialogPreference (res.layout.preference_dialog.xml)
It's not accessible through android.R.drawable
I don't want to copy bitmap file, because
that icon can be different for every device.
I found this: http://www.androidjavadoc.com/2.3/android/R.attr.html#moreIcon But I'm not sure how can I use it. Basically I'm trying to add more icon to my custom ListView,
which whould look exactly android way.
You can use Nine-patch to create your own rounded button which can be exactly the same as drawable ic_btn_round_more. you can get more information about how to use Nine-Patch here : http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/draw9patch.html
