Issue
I want create this using button (TextView) by using XML definiton:
In layout of the Activity I have:
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/button_arrow" <!-- I NEED IMPLEMENT THIS -->
android:clickable="true"
android:drawablePadding="7dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:drawableLeft="@drawable/music_cloud"
android:onClick="exportSong"
android:padding="20dp"
android:text="@string/export_upload"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium"
android:textColor="@color/dark_yellow_text_color"
android:textStyle="bold" />
I founded several posts:
making-a-triangle-shape-using-xml-definitions
Android triangle (arrow) defined as an XML shape
or Android - make an arrow shape with xml
I tried modify several XML definition but nothing was good. Is there some easy way how to implement this shape? Also it should have a transparent background.
Solution
If someone still has issues with this :
xml:
<item android:top="45dp"> <shape> <size android:height="100dp" android:width="90dp"/> <solid android:color="@android:color/holo_orange_light" /> </shape> </item> <item android:top="36dp" android:left="11dp"> <rotate android:fromDegrees="45" android:toDegrees="0" android:pivotX="80%" android:pivotY="20%" > <shape> <size android:width="40dp" android:height="30dp"/> <stroke android:color="@android:color/holo_orange_light" android:width="1dp"/> <solid android:color="@android:color/holo_orange_light" /> </shape> </rotate> </item> </layer-list>
override TextView and use it in your layout:
public class CustomTextView extends TextView { private int mWidth; private int mHeight; public CustomTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) { super(context, attrs); } @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { super.onDraw(canvas); Paint mPaint = new Paint(); int color = getResources().getColor(R.color.YourColor); mPaint.setColor(color); Path mPath = new Path(); mPath.moveTo(.0f, this.getHeight()); mPath.lineTo(0.8f * this.getWidth(), this.getHeight()); mPath.lineTo(this.getWidth(), 0.5f * this.getHeight()); mPath.lineTo(0.8f * this.getWidth(), .0f); mPath.lineTo(.0f, .0f); mPath.lineTo(.0f, this.getHeight()); canvas.clipPath(mPath); canvas.drawPath(mPath,mPaint); } }
Regarding the xml example: there are two rectangles overlapping.You have to play around with the values a lot and this makes it difficult to use on different views. I think using a custom view is the best solution in this case.
