Circular ImageView background is actually square and not circular?

I have a question regarding a circular ImageView. When I try to set the background color of my ImageView, it actually ends up being a square and not a circle when in reality I would want the ImageView to be a simple circular ImageView with some text as the image. Here was my attempt.
ImageView imageView = postViewHolder.fourthCommenter;
Bitmap b=Bitmap.createBitmap(30, 30, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
BitmapShader shader = new BitmapShader(b, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setShader(shader);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
Canvas c = new Canvas(b);
c.drawCircle(b.getWidth()/2, b.getHeight()/2, b.getWidth()/2, paint);
c.drawText("+10",30,30,paint);
imageView.setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.material_color_grey_200));
imageView.setImageBitmap(b);
All I want is to have the image show a grey circular Imageview with the word "+10" in it. What shows up is a simple square Imageview with no text in it. I can't see what I am doing wrong.
Any help would be apprecaited.
Thanks!
EDIT: Here is an example of what I would want. I want to have an image that looks exactly like the +16 image shown on this photo:

All I want is to have the image show a grey circular Imageview
Try this code
Bitmap picture = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.mipmap.add_image);
ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgProfilePicture);
imageView.setImageBitmap(getRoundedBitmap(picture));
public Bitmap getRoundedBitmap(Bitmap bitmap){
Bitmap circleBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
BitmapShader shader = new BitmapShader(bitmap, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setShader(shader);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
Canvas c = new Canvas(circleBitmap);
c.drawCircle(bitmap.getWidth() / 2, bitmap.getHeight() / 2, bitmap.getWidth() / 2, paint);
return circleBitmap;
}
Your xml file
<de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
android:id="#+id/imgProfilePicture"
android:layout_width="110dp"
android:layout_height="110dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
app:civ_border_width="3dp"
app:civ_border_color="#color/light_gray" />
and add this in build.gradle
compile 'de.hdodenhof:circleimageview:2.1.0'
Cirular ImageView Done !

Not sure if it's the proper way to do it , but it should work for your case :
First use this to create the bitmap with the required circle shape :
public Bitmap getCircledBmp(Context mContext,Bitmap bmp){
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bmp);
int color = ContextCompat.getColor(mContext, R.color.material_color_grey_200);
Paint paint = new Paint();
Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bmp.getWidth(), bmp.getHeight());
RectF rectFloat = new RectF(rect);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setColor(color);
canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
canvas.drawOval(rectFloat, paint);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN));
canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, rect, rect, paint);
return bmp;
}
Then add the text that you want :
public Bitmap drawText(String text, Bitmap bmp, int textSize) {
//text dimensions
TextPaint textPaint = new TextPaint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
textPaint.setTextSize(textSize);
textPaint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
textPaint.setTextAlign(Paint.Align.CENTER);
StaticLayout mTextLayout = new StaticLayout(text, textPaint,
bmp.getWidth(), Layout.Alignment.ALIGN_NORMAL, 1.0f, 0.0f, false);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bmp);
//draw text
canvas.save();
canvas.translate((canvas.getWidth() / 2), (canvas.getHeight() / 2) -
((mTextLayout.getHeight() / 2)));
mTextLayout.draw(canvas);
canvas.restore();
return bmp;
}
In the end you should get your desired image like this :
Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(100,100,Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888); //change the values whatever you like
ImageView imageView = postViewHolder.fourthCommenter;
imageview.setImageBitmap(drawText("+10",getCircledBmp(this,bmp),30));

How to apply a custom image mask with borders?

So I have the following image to be used as a mask:
Now I want to apply this mask to images so that the image will fill the inner white space but will not fill the borders, keeping it as it is. However, when I use the code below, the image takes the inner white space plus the border.
public static Bitmap applyMask(Bitmap scaledBitmap, Bitmap mask) {
Bitmap result = Bitmap.createBitmap(mask.getWidth(), mask.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas mCanvas = new Canvas(result);
Paint paint = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.DST_IN));
mCanvas.drawBitmap(scaledBitmap, 0, 0, null);
mCanvas.drawBitmap(mask, 0, 0, paint);
paint.setXfermode(null);
return result;
}
So is there any way to make the image fill only the white space? How can I keep the mask borders intact?
Thanks in advance.

I had to download your image to see the transparent areas. They are on the outside of your shape (which is why DST_IN is the mode that works for this).
What the DST_IN mode does is erases any pixels already on the canvas where the pixels in the mask are transparent. So whether it's the dark border or the white inside, those pixels all have alpha > 0, so they mask the canvas just the same. Those pixels outside the shape have alpha == 0, so they erase the canvas pixels.
Since the final bitmap is the size of your mask, as I see it you have two options:
OPTION 1: If you can put the background color in the mask image:
Change your mask image so that the transparent pixels are inside the shape, and the pixels outside the shape are your background color. Then use SRC_OVER as your xfer mode. The background color outside the border, plus the black border will overwrite the existing pixels in this mode, and since the inner pixels are transparent, the middle part of the image will come through the way you want.
OPTION 2: If you have to specify the background color in the app so you can't put it in the mask image:
For this you'll need two mask images, the one you have and a copy with the inside pixels transparent as well, so you are left with the border. Draw with your mask image the way you are doing right now using DST_IN, then draw the image with just the border using SRC_OVER to draw the border on top of your masked image.

Here you have an example of what you want and you can adapt it to your case:
public static Bitmap getRoundedCornerBitmap(Bitmap bitmap) {
Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(),
bitmap.getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);
final int color = 0xff424242;
final Paint paint = new Paint();
final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
final RectF rectF = new RectF(rect);
final float roundPx = 12;
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
paint.setColor(color);
canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);
return output;
}
I've found it here. Hope it helps! :)

Animation for converting Circular image to Rounded corner in android

I have an image with circular shape,I want to apply an animation for Circular image,so that it should slowly convert into little bigger size rounded corner image.
I tried for converting circular image to rounded corner but could not able to write an animation like effect.
This makes me to convert image into rounded rectangle,but I wants the Animation for this
kind of performance.My animation should slowly convert my circular image to rectangle with rounded corners and also increase in size
public Bitmap getRoundedRectBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int pixels)
{
result = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
canvas = new Canvas(result);
color = 0xff424242;
paint = new Paint();
rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
rectF = new RectF(rect);
roundPx = pixels;
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
paint.setColor(color);
canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);
return result;
}

How do I create Bitmap from another image and keep the transparent background?

I am trying to create a bitmap from a PNG image that has a transparent background. When I use this method below it makes the background black. I've tried using drawColor() with the color being transparent, but it is not working. Maybe I'm just overlooking something. So, my question is: How do I keep the transparency in a Bitmap? I am saving it as a PNG.
private Bitmap createCircularCroppedBitmap(Bitmap bitmap) {
Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(),
bitmap.getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);
final Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
canvas.drawCircle(bitmap.getWidth() / 2, bitmap.getHeight() / 2,
bitmap.getWidth() / 2, paint);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);
return output;
}

After a couple of days. I found the solution just after posting this question.
The problem was not in Bitmap.createScaledBitmap() The problem was in image.compress().
I was using the image.compress(CompressFormat.JPEG, 80, fos), But if I use image.compress(CompressFormat.PNG, 100, fos) then my problem is solved.

The alpha channel is initially filled by 0xff. So you can try this
canvas.drawColor(0, Mode.CLEAR);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.CLEAR))

How do I round a button programmatically in Android?

I have a Button which populates a GridView using a custom adapter's call to getView(). As such, there is no .xml file for the Button.
Is there a way to programmatically round the Button?

Use a nine patch, here is an example one:
save this in your /res/drawable-mdpi/ directory with the filename btn_round.9.png
then in your java code do this:
mBtn.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.btn_round);
because it is 9 patch wit will stretch to fit whatever content you are putting inside the button. Search for "android draw9patch" to learn more about how to create the 9 patch files.

Below given method returns rounded bitmap of image.Apply it to button image and check if this can help
public Bitmap getRoundedCornerBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int pixels) {
Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap
.getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);
final int color = 0xff424242;
final Paint paint = new Paint();
final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
final RectF rectF = new RectF(rect);
final float roundPx = pixels;
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
paint.setColor(color);
canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);
return output;
}

Use an XML drawable background with corners and use setBackground. See How to make the corners of a button round?
You can use this even though the button itself isn't defined in xml, you're just declaring the background as an xml file.
