Get background color of a Layout

Question

I want to find the background color of a Layout from my code. Is there any way to find it? something like linearLayout.getBackgroundColor()?

Answer 1

To get background color of a Layout:

LinearLayout lay = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.lay1);
ColorDrawable viewColor = (ColorDrawable) lay.getBackground();
int colorId = viewColor.getColor();

If It is RelativeLayout then just find its id and use there object instead of LinearLayout.
