Android BlurMaskFilter has no effect in canvas.drawOval while text is blurred

问题

I\'ve been trying to create a custom view which has blurred shapes under text. The problem is that the BlurMaskFilter has no effect on any shape that I draw on the canvas. Here is how I\'m initialising the Paint objects in the constructor:

paint = new Paint(0);
paint.setColor(0xffffffff);
paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(8, BlurMaskFilter.Blur.NORMAL));

mShadowPaint = new Paint(0);
mShadowPaint.setColor(0xff333333);
mShadowPaint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(10, BlurMaskFilter.Blur.NORMAL));

And I\'m calling the functions like this in onDraw():

canvas.drawOval(mShadowBounds,mShadowPaint);
canvas.drawText(\"hello\", x, y, paint);

But this is what I see.

Using android 4.0 sdk and testing on a 4.0.4 galaxy nexus device (UK). I\'m wondering if this is a bug in 4.0.4 as I did test it on the emulator with 4.0 and 4.0.3 and it did blur perfectly well on them, unless I\'m doing something completely wrong?

EDIT: Here is the extended View code to test it on other platforms.

import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.BlurMaskFilter;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.graphics.RectF;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;

public class BlurTestView extends View{

    private Paint paint;
    private Paint mShadowPaint;
    private int size = 100;
    private RectF mShadowBounds = new RectF();

    public BlurTestView(Context context) {
        this(context, null, 0);
    }

    public BlurTestView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        this(context, attrs, 0);
    }

    public BlurTestView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
        paint = new Paint(0);
        paint.setColor(0xff333333);
        paint.setTextSize(size);
        paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(8, BlurMaskFilter.Blur.NORMAL));

        mShadowPaint = new Paint(0);
        mShadowPaint.setColor(0xff333333);
        mShadowPaint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(10, BlurMaskFilter.Blur.NORMAL));

        mShadowBounds.top = size;
        mShadowBounds.bottom = mShadowBounds.top+(size /2);
        mShadowBounds.left = 0;
        mShadowBounds.right = (int)paint.measureText(\"hello\");
    }

    @Override
    public void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
    {
        canvas.drawOval(mShadowBounds,mShadowPaint);
        canvas.drawText(\"hello\", 0, size, paint);
    }

}

Looks like a bug to me. I reported it to the Android team; we'll see what they say.

It renders correctly if you set android:hardwareAccelerated="false" on your Activity in AndroidManifest.xml.

Here is the official word from the Android graphics team: "BlurMaskFilter is not supported with hardware acceleration." (As of July 10, 2012)

回答2:

If you can not disable hardware acceleration in your activity (for example it uses TextureView which require hardware acceleration) you can just call setLayerType with first parameter LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE and the second parameter null for your view.

Like this

public class BlurTestView extends View {

    public BlurTestView(Context context) {
        this(context, null, 0);
    }

    public BlurTestView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        this(context, attrs, 0);
    }

    public BlurTestView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);

        // Disable hardware acceleration for this view
        setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null); 

        // Perform other initialisation 
    }

    // Other methods and so on...
}

I had the same issue while adding a filter to a path. I noticed that setting the target to 13 or below allows the filters to work. 14 and up they didn't.

android:targetSdkVersion="13"
