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>

Align 3 buttons in a signe line, each button has different borders

Good afternoon,
I am doing an app who needs 3 buttons aligned under the TabLayout, like in the picture below :
I do not know what is the best way to do them, because each one has different borders.
Anyone can help me ?
Thank you !
I finally did it :
buttons.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:topLeftRadius="0dp"
android:topRightRadius="5dp"/>
</shape>
Result :
Thank you all!

You need to create a Shape drawable for all of your buttons. For eg the center button can use below drawable as background.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#606060"/>
<stroke android:color="#303030" android:width="2dp" />
</shape>
For the other two you need rounded edges only on left and right.For that you may follow This post on SO.
*Note: change the colors according to your needs and you will also require a selector to be applied on each button to highlight the selection.
The left and right borders can also be removed using shape drawable.For more details please see This post
The more easier approach will be to use This Library.

Set width to "0dp" and weight to "1" for all your buttons and wrap them inside a horizontal LinearLayout

roundedbuttons.xml in drawable
?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#ffffffff"/>
<stroke android:width="3dp"
android:color="#ff000000"
/>
<corners android:bottomRightRadius="7dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="7dp"
android:topLeftRadius="7dp"
android:topRightRadius="7dp"/>
</shape>
Edit the shape according to your preference
In your xml layout
LinearLayout(Horizontal)
- Buttons with background(roundedbuttons.xml) and weight="1"

Why don't you use one linear layout with blue border as parent of 3 textViews with background. No need to make it complicated.

Rounded Corner Bottom TextView inside CardView

I am using CardView to show List Items, where each and every List Item contains two textviews, namely - BOOK NOW/BOOK and DETAIL/DETAILS.
I would like to achieve rounded bottom TextView, but getting in rectangular shape
I have to design something like this:
Here is my XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="true"
android:focusable="true"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
app:cardCornerRadius="5dp"
app:cardElevation="2dp">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="1">
.......
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:background="#color/more"
android:layout_weight="1">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/btnBook"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="BOOK"
android:textColor="#android:color/background_light"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#null"
android:textAppearance="?android:textAppearanceMedium"
android:gravity="center" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/btnDetail"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="DETAILS"
android:background="#null"
android:textColor="#android:color/background_light"
android:padding="10dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:textAppearanceMedium"
android:gravity="center" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
</LinearLayout>
Where I have to make change to get it done ?

set this background to the LinearLayout containing the textViews
<item>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#color/colorPrimary" />
<corners android:bottomLeftRadius="cardview_corner_radius_value"
android:bottomRightRadius="cardview_corner_radius_value" />
</shape>
</item>
and add background of TextView as transparent

You have to make selector for this in 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="2dp" android:color="#color/more" />
<dotted android:color="#00FF0000" />
<padding android:bottom="1dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
Then set background to your view. Use this
android:background="#drawable/corner_selector"
instead of
android:background="#color/more"

make a file rounded_border.xml in drawable folder
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#color/common_border_color" />
<solid android:color="#fff" />
<padding
android:left="1dp"
android:right="1dp"
android:top="1dp" />
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
</shape>
and keep it as a background of linear layout
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_border"
android:layout_weight="1">

1. make button.xml file and put it in drawable folder
<?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="3dip" />
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#5e7974" />
<gradient android:angle="-90" android:startColor="#345953" android:endColor="#689a92" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:state_focused="true">
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners android:radius="3dip" />
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#5e7974" />
<solid android:color="#58857e"/>
</shape>
</item>
<item >
<shape android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners android:radius="3dip" />
<stroke android:width="1dip" android:color="#5e7974" />
<gradient android:angle="-90" android:startColor="#8dbab3" android:endColor="#58857e" />
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
2. then change your xml background of Linearlayout
android:background="#color/more"
to
android:background="#drawable/button"

Try with this simplest way to do this your Layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/btnbackground"
android:layout_margin="20dp"
android:text="My Profile"
/>
</LinearLayout>
after that make a xml in drawable folder btnbackground.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/llabeforeclick3"
android:state_pressed="true"/>
<item android:drawable="#drawable/llaafterclick3"/>
</selector>
then make another llabeforeclick3.xml in drawable directory
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<solid android:color="#19384A" >
</solid>
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp" />
<stroke
android:width="0dp"
android:color="#19384A" />
<padding
android:left="4dp"
android:top="4dp"
android:right="4dp"
android:bottom="4dp"
android:color="#19384A" />
</shape>
after that make another xml llaafterclick3.xml in drawable
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
//background color
<solid android:color="#204A60" >
</solid>
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp" />
//before clicked
<gradient
android:angle="45"
android:centerColor="#204A60"
android:centerX="20"
android:centerY="20"
android:endColor="#204A60"
android:gradientRadius="25"
android:startColor="#204A60" />
</shape>
if some buddy wants to make more rounded corners then use to increase size of
android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
android:topRightRadius="10dp"
android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
That solve here your color code is depends on you you need to put color code only and radious.

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>
try this tool

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" />

Can I draw rectangle in XML?

I wonder if I can draw rectangle in XML.
I know how to draw using drawRect method programmatically.

Yes you can and here is one I made earlier:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="#+id/listview_background_shape">
<stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#ff207d94" />
<padding android:left="2dp"
android:top="2dp"
android:right="2dp"
android:bottom="2dp" />
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
<solid android:color="#ffffffff" />
</shape>
You can create a new XML file inside the drawable folder, and add the above code, then save it as rectangle.xml.
To use it inside a layout you would set the android:background attribute to the new drawable shape. The shape we have defined does not have any dimensions, and therefore will take the dimensions of the View that is defined in the layout.
So putting it all together:
<View
android:id="#+id/myRectangleView"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:background="#drawable/rectangle"/>
Finally; you can set this rectangle to be the background of any View, although for ImageViews you would use android:src. This means you could use the rectangle as the background for ListViews, TextViews...etc.

Create rectangle.xml using Shape Drawable Like this put in to your Drawable Folder...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#android:color/transparent"/>
<corners android:radius="12px"/>
<stroke android:width="2dip" android:color="#000000"/>
</shape>
put it in to an ImageView
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/rectimage"
android:layout_height="150dp"
android:layout_width="150dp"
android:src="#drawable/rectangle">
</ImageView>
Hope this will help you.

Quick and dirty way:
<View
android:id="#+id/colored_bar"
android:layout_width="48dp"
android:layout_height="3dp"
android:background="#color/bar_red" />

try this
<TableRow
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<View
android:layout_width="15dp"
android:layout_height="15dp"
android:background="#3fe1fa" />
<TextView
android:textSize="12dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
android:text="1700 Market Street"
android:id="#+id/textView8" />
</TableRow>
output

Use this code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle" >
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="5dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="5dp"
android:radius="0.1dp"
android:topLeftRadius="5dp"
android:topRightRadius="5dp" />
<solid android:color="#Efffff" />
<stroke
android:width="2dp"
android:color="#25aaff" />
</shape>

create resource file in drawable
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#3b5998" />
<cornersandroid:radius="15dp"/>

//Put this code inside the drawable file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="#+id/listview_background_shape">
<stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="#C4C4C4" />
<padding android:left="2dp"
android:top="2dp"
android:right="2dp"
android:bottom="2dp" />
<corners android:radius="15dp" />
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
</shape>
