Android Custom Graphics shape

In the Android development process, often need to change the default style of the control, then often use a number of pictures to solve. However, this approach may require multiple images, such as a button, a model image to be clicked, and a default style image. This makes it easy to make the apk bigger. Another way is to use a custom graphic to change the style of the control.

The custom shape shape has the following properties

1.solid: Fill

2.gradient: Corresponds to a color gradient. StartColor, EndColor will not say much. Android:angle refers to the angle from which the change begins.

3.stroke: Stroke

4.corners: Rounded Corners

5.padding: Spacing defines how far the content is from the boundary

Implementation steps:

1. Create a My_shape.xml file under the drawable file.

2. Writing style code in the My_shape.xml file

<shape xmlns:android= "Http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

<solid android:color= "#ffffffff"/>

<corners Android:radius = "10DP"/>

<padding android:bottom= "5DP" android:top= "5DP" android:left= "5DP" android:right= "5DP"/>

<stroke android:width= "1DP" android:color= "#ff00bbe8"/>
</shape>

3. Set Android:[email Protected]/my_shape in the control you are using, or you can set it in the style style file.
