How to pass the color value dynamically to xml
android, colors, xml
Solution
Sadly you cannot pass arguments to XML Drawables.
If you don't have too many different values, you can use a `<level-list>` and provide different versions of your shape.
Then you would change the level associated with your drawable to change the color using `Drawable.setLevel(int)`.
my_drawable.xml
<level-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:maxLevel="0">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="@color/red"/>
<stroke android:width="1sp" android:color="@color/border" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:maxLevel="1">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="@color/green"/>
<stroke android:width="1sp" android:color="@color/border" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:maxLevel="2">
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="@color/blue"/>
<stroke android:width="1sp" android:color="@color/blue" />
</shape>
</item>
</level-list>
MyActivity.java
// myView is a View (or a subclass of View)
// with background set to R.drawable.my_drawable
myView.getBackground().setLevel(0); // Set color to red
myView.getBackground().setLevel(1); // Set color to green
myView.getBackground().setLevel(2); // Set color to blue
// myImageView is an ImageView with its source
// set to R.drawable.my_drawable
myImageView.setImageLevel(0); // Set color to red
myImageView.setImageLevel(1); // Set color to green
myImageView.setImageLevel(2); // Set color to blue
Problem
i have a xml which will draw oval shape , the code is below: ``` <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="oval"> <solid android:color="#61118"/> <stroke android:width="1sp" android:color="#1B434D" /> </shape> ``` Now i here `android:color="#61118"` i need to pass the value from java class, Is it possible? If not is there any alternative way?
