How do I set the rounded corner radius of a color drawable using xml?
android, drawable
Solution
Use the `<shape>` tag to create a drawable in XML with rounded corners. (You can do other stuff with the shape tag like define a color gradient as well).
Here's a copy of a XML file I'm using in one of my apps to create a drawable with a white background, black border and rounded corners:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#ffffffff"/>
<stroke android:width="3dp"
android:color="#ff000000" />
<padding android:left="1dp"
android:top="1dp"
android:right="1dp"
android:bottom="1dp" />
<corners android:radius="7dp" />
</shape>
Problem
On the android website, there is a section about color drawables. Defining these drawables in xml looks like this: ``` <resources> <drawable name="solid_red">#f00</drawable> <drawable name="solid_blue">#0000ff</drawable> <drawable name="solid_green">#f0f0</drawable> </resources> ``` In the java api, they have thr following method to define rounded corners: ``` setCornerRadius(float radius) ``` Is there a way to set the rounded corners in the xml?
