I am trying to customize ProgressBar's design in Android. I know how to change the color of the ProgressBar and everything, but what I do not get is how can I create ProgressBar look like one of those old ones in windows.
This is the sketch:
So, basically my question is how should I customize my ProgressBar to achieve this result?
ProgressBar is a very customizable View, I suggest you look at the progressDrawable property.
You can have a look at this example and that can help you understand what you need to do:

I have seen this progress bar in apps but I don't know what it's called.
How do I set it up and change it intermediate colors.
Maybe the Swipe-to-Refresh is the one you're referring to.
More info at http://developer.android.com/training/swipe/add-swipe-interface.html
If you only want to change the color of the spinner and not the background, you can try -
progressBar.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(
getResources().getColor(R.color.blue),
android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);
Otherwise, to change the background as well, you need to customize your progressbar for this.
The tutorial here may help you.
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.
I am using progress dialog for android 2.3.3. Progress dialog's status is showing with the format as "60% 60/100" but I want to display only percentage not "60/100". How can I do it? please help.
According to documentation, you should call setProgressNumberFormat (null) on your ProgressDialog instance to get this behavior
Please visit this link.
Also It's explained in full in ApiDemos inside the SDK. The example that you want is named: ProgressBar3.java and can be found in \ApiDemos\src\com\example\android\apis\view\
Also, if you want to remove the borders of the dialog so that only the progress bar appears you can define the dialog itself as a transparent view/overlay (it's explained in the examples as well).
Is it possible to set a background in progress dialog?? I am not using xml files. I am creating and displaying it in andengine activity.
You can do this with the help of custom dialog instead of using progress dialog. Custom dialog will be a better approach to do this . Follow the link. You can also use
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
in the background property of the parent layout in order to make it transparent.
Hope this will solve your problem
