drawable

Been struggling for the past two days to change the background of my widget, based on some if statements (removed right now just want to change the widget background from the class) here is my source below.

This is my most recent attempt by the way //Widget Provider Class public class WidgetProvider extends AppWidgetProvider { public void onUpdate(Context context, AppWidgetManager appWidgetManager, int[] appWidgetIds) { final int N = appWidgetIds.length; for (int i=0; i<N;

I want to create this effect.TextView with transparent semicircle as backgound . I tried add drawable as background. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="oval" > <solid android:color="#00000000" /> </shape> also i tried this stackoverflow similar question ,but it doesn't work for me. Can anyone help me? You cannot create a semicircle from xml. but you could achieve what you are looking for using a circle with appropriate margin & padding. Create a fixed sized circle like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8

I know that in Android we can use function setCompoundDrawables(..) to add drawable. My problem is that my EditText is multy-lines and i want to put drawable in EditText's top|left corner. But using at setCompoundDrawables() function, only give choice to put drawable in specific side. Is it possibility at Android API to Do it? sandrstar Seems it's impossible to do it with only EditText / TextView without anyside effect and additional views (I've provided the way at the end, but it needs more work with image and can be not applicable for every phone, because of different edit text backgorunds

I have a gradient drawable defined in xml that I use it as a background, like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item android:bottom="4dp"> <shape> <gradient android:startColor="@color/blue" android:endColor="@color/dark_blue" android:angle="270" /> </shape> </item> <item android:top="98dp"> <shape> <gradient android:startColor="@color/black" android:endColor="@color/transparent_black" android:angle="270" /> </shape> </item> </layer-list> I need to implement this programmatically.

Is there any way to get the Drawable resource ID? For example, I am using an ImageView and I may initially use icon.png as its image but later I may change the image to icon2.png. I want to find out using the code that which image my ImageView is using from the resource. Is there any way? Are you trying to determine what the current image is on the imageview , in order to change it to some other image? If that's so I suggest doing everything using code instead of xml. i.e. Use setImageResource() to set the initial images during initialization and keep track of the resource ids being used
