How to make two layer circular corner in textview in android

This drawable :
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#70628b" />
<stroke android:width="12dp"
android:color="#4c3f6e"
/>
<corners android:radius="8dp"/>
</shape>
This is my textview
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_disabled_frame"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/disabled_transparent_frame"
android:fontFamily="#font/inter_medium"
android:gravity="center"
android:padding="#dimen/dp_24"
android:text="02 : 45"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="#dimen/dp_32"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:visibility="visible" />
I am trying to apply circular drawable in inside and outside but given code its showing only outer :
Current screen using this code :
Expected screen
I am unable to do circular please help me in this .

try this code
It can show nested corner
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#4c3f6e" />
<corners android:radius="8dp" />
<padding
android:bottom="12dp"
android:left="12dp"
android:right="12dp"
android:top="12dp" />
</shape>
</item>
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#70628b" />
<corners android:radius="8dp" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>

note that your "expected screen" has some small shadow under inner color area, you won't achieve this with common drawable, even with layer-list
I would advice you to use CardView
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/outer_background"
android:padding="12dp">
<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:elevation="4dp"
android:visibility="gone"
app:cardCornerRadius="8dp"
app:cardBackgroundColor="#70628b">
<TextView ...
adjust elevation param for more/less shadow
outer_background.xml
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#4c3f6e" />
<corners android:radius="8dp"/>
</shape>

How to create a shadow border inside a LinearLayout or EditText in android?

How to add a shadow border on 4 sides of an edit text as shown in the image? Applied below code but it creates a shadow on single side only.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient
android:startColor="#FFBDBDBD"
android:centerColor="#65FFFFFF"
android:endColor="#00FFFFFF"
/>
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#C3C3C3" />
<corners
android:radius="5dp" />
</shape>

You can use elevation like :-
android:elevation="5dp"
elevation worked as Z-index.

You can try adding width and color inside the shape tag.
It will look like this:
<stroke android:width="3dp" android:color="#bfafb2"/>

First create this background drawable with a rectangle, round corner and a stroke in grey. Called background_drawable.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#ffffff"/>
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
<stroke android:width="1dp"
android:color="#C3C3C3"/>
</shape>
After that you set this as android:background="" in your LinearLayout and EditText, both widgets have android:elevation="2dp" for it's shadow on each sites matching the stroke of the rectangle. Here is your layout called activity_main.xml:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:elevation="2dp"
android:id="#+id/linear_layout"
android:background="#drawable/background_drawable"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:orientation="horizontal" />
<EditText
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/edit_text"
android:elevation="2dp"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:background="#drawable/background_drawable"
android:layout_below="#+id/linear_layout"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:padding="10dp"/>
The final result will look like this image.

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#CABBBBBB"/>
<corners android:radius="2dp" />
</shape>
</item>
<item
android:left="2dp"
android:right="2dp"
android:top="2dp"
android:bottom="2dp">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#android:color/white"/>
<corners android:radius="2dp" />
</shape>
</item>

xml - unable to set shape as background of a TextView

I'm trying to set a transparent circle with a stroke as the background of a TextView in android:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/status"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="24dp"
android:background="#drawable/decibel_circle"
android:text="30 dB"
android:fontFamily="sans-serif"
android:textColor="#android:color/black"
android:textSize="70dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
And this is the shape I want to use, located in decibel-circle.xml
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<stroke
android:width="5dp"
android:color="#F44336">
</stroke>
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
<size
android:width="36dp"
android:height="36dp" />
<corners android:radius="12dp" />
</shape>
</selector>
The problem is that the shape is never shown, neither in the preview nor when I run my app.
What am I doing wrong?

in your decibel-circle.xml remove selector just use shape alone
Use this only
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<stroke
android:width="5dp"
android:color="#F44336">
</stroke>
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
<size
android:width="36dp"
android:height="36dp" />
<corners android:radius="12dp" />
</shape>

Autocomplete textview with oval shape corners

I want to create the shape of autocomplete textview shown in the figure and text should come in center of it.
Currently I am trying to implement it as
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners android:radius="15dip" />
<solid android:color="#color/blue_text" />
<padding
android:bottom="5dip"
android:left="15dip"
android:right="15dip"
android:top="5dip" />
</shape>
</item>
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/autoComp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/bg_autocompletetext"
android:textColor="#color/white"
</AutoCompleteTextView>
But it would just make the corners of the textview round. It does make it completely round. Please specify any solution for it.

try this code of shape
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners
android:radius="100dp"/>
<solid
android:color="#2137FF"/>
<size
android:width="250dp"
android:height="60dp"/>
</shape>

Its better to use 9 patch image as a background of your TextView.
With using 9 patch image you can set proper resolution for different resolution device.And it will give you better result .

You write a seperate xml layout(shape.xml) having code:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#DCDCDC" />
<stroke android:width="2.5dp"
android:color="#DCDCDC" />
<corners
android:radius="10dp"/>
</shape>
Then in your main layout add:
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:id="#+id/autoComp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"
android:background="#drawable/shape"
android:textColor="#color/white"
</AutoCompleteTextView>
Hope this help.

Try this, working for rounded text view
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- res/drawable/rounded_textview.xml -->
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<solid android:color="#284A89" />
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="30dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="30dp"
android:topLeftRadius="30dp"
android:topRightRadius="30dp" />
</shape>

Add Following file in drawables "searchtextbox_border.xml"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners
android:radius="100dp"/>
<stroke android:color="#color/light_grey"
android:width="1dp">
</stroke>
</shape>
Then Add it as background in your AutocompleteTextview as follows:
<AutoCompleteTextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="32dp"
android:padding="#dimen/padding_10dp"
android:background="#drawable/searchtextbox_border"
android:hint="Search" />

how to make a rounded corners for an image in image view using XML layout in android

I have tried many times but i know that i am missing something,could you Guys please explain it..
Following is what, i have tried
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/Dicimage"
android:layout_width="130px"
android:layout_height="100px"
android:src="#drawable/slang"
android:background="#drawable/corner"
android:padding="1dp"/>
Created Corner XML in resource folder
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#fff"/>

android:right="2dp"
android:bottom="2dp"/>
<corners android:radius="30px"/>
</shape>
What i am getting is, the border is only rounded rectangle but the image is still rectangle in shape

No, that is not possible. You have to do it programmatically.
What you are doing is create rounded corners background and draw the drawable over it.
Here's the great article of how to create rounded corners image from Romain Guy: http://www.curious-creature.org/2012/12/11/android-recipe-1-image-with-rounded-corners/

you can add your ImageView in a CardView with attribute cardElevation=0
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/thumbnail_card"
card_view:cardCornerRadius="15dp"
card_view:cardElevation="0dp"
android:layout_margin="10dp">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/thumbnail"
android:layout_width="110dp"
android:layout_height="75dp"
android:scaleType="centerCrop" />
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

TRy this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#ffffff"/>
<stroke android:width="3dp"
android:color="#ff000000"/>
<padding android:left="1dp"
android:top="1dp"
android:right="1dp"
android:bottom="1dp"/>
<corners android:radius="30px"/>
</shape>
Taken from this Post : Android ImageView with Rounded Corners not working

Use that xml file as foreground
I mean, instead of
android:background="#drawable/corner"
Use this
android:foreground="#drawable/corner"

You should add this code as some_foreground.xml to drawable folder.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<stroke
android:width="8dp"
android:color="#color/white" />
</shape>
</item>
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="#dimen/padding_margin_8" />
<stroke
android:width="8dp"
android:color="#color/white" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
And then you can use this as foreground for your ImageView.
You should add this like:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/event_image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:foreground="#drawable/some_foreground"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/your_image" />

Here's a super late answer but if you're trying to create a circular ImageView:
Create a drawable in drawable folder called circle:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="oval">
<solid
android:color="#android:color/black"/>
<size
android:height="60dp"
android:width="60dp"/>
</shape>
ImageView:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/Dicimage"
android:layout_width="130px"
android:layout_height="100px"
android:src="#drawable/slang"
android:background="#drawable/circle"
android:padding="1dp"/>
