Okay, I've been reading and searching around, and am now banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out. Here's what I have so far:
package com.pockdroid.sandbox;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Color;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.widget.ImageView;
public class ShadowImageView extends ImageView {
private Rect mRect;
private Paint mPaint;
public ShadowImageView(Context context)
{
super(context);
mRect = new Rect();
mPaint = new Paint();
mPaint.setAntiAlias(true);
mPaint.setShadowLayer(2f, 1f, 1f, Color.BLACK);
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
Rect r = mRect;
Paint paint = mPaint;
canvas.drawRect(r, paint);
super.onDraw(canvas);
}
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int w, int h)
{
super.onMeasure(w,h);
int mH, mW;
mW = getSuggestedMinimumWidth() < getMeasuredWidth()? getMeasuredWidth() : getSuggestedMinimumWidth();
mH = getSuggestedMinimumHeight() < getMeasuredHeight()? getMeasuredHeight() : getSuggestedMinimumHeight();
setMeasuredDimension(mW + 5, mH + 5);
}
}
The "+5" in the measurements are there as temporary; From what I understand I'll need to do some math to determine the size that the drop shadow adds to the canvas, right?
But when I use this:
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ShadowImageView sImageView;
if (convertView == null) {
sImageView = new ShadowImageView(mContext);
GridView.LayoutParams lp = new GridView.LayoutParams(85, 85);
sImageView.setLayoutParams(lp);
sImageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER);
sImageView.setPadding(5,5,5,5);
} else {
sImageView = (ShadowImageView) convertView;
}
sImageView.setImageBitmap(bitmapList.get(position));
return sImageView;
}
in my ImageView, I still get just a normal ImageView when I run the program.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
EDIT: So I spoke with RomainGuy some in the IRC channel, and I have it working now for plain rectangular images with the below code. It still won't draw the shadow directly to my bitmap's transparency though, so I'm still working on that.
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.omen);
Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setShadowLayer(5.5f, 6.0f, 6.0f, Color.BLACK);
canvas.drawColor(Color.GRAY);
canvas.drawRect(50, 50, 50 + bmp.getWidth(), 50 + bmp.getHeight(), paint);
canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, 50, 50, null);
}
