    If you want to set views in 3D shape, View.setElevation() and View.setTranslationZ() is a good idea.

    But unfortunately, the two attributes and methods are introduced since Android API 21. So, you can't use them on pre-L or API 21- devices.

    But, there is still a way to custom your views' shadows and outlines.

    The bounds of a view's background drawable determine the default shape of its shadow. Outlines represent the outer shape of a graphics object and define the ripple area for touch feedback.

    Consider this view, defined with a background drawable:

    
    

    The background drawable is defined as a rectangle with rounded corners:

    
    
        
        
    
    

    The view casts a shadow with rounded corners, since the background drawable defines the view's outline. Providing a custom outline overrides the default shape of a view's shadow.

    To define a custom outline for a view in your code:

    1. Extend the ViewOutlineProvider class.
    2. Override the getOutline() method.
    3. Assign the new outline provider to your view with the View.setOutlineProvider() method.

    You can create oval and rectangular outlines with rounded corners using the methods in the Outline class. The default outline provider for views obtains the outline from the view's background. To prevent a view from casting a shadow, set its outline provider to null.

    Hopefully it helps.

    P.S.: yourAppNs:elevation="4dp" will be a good idea if you are using android-design-library.
