How to make an ImageView with rounded corners?

Question

In Android, an ImageView is a rectangle by default. How can I make it a rounded rectangle (clip off all 4 corners of my Bitmap to be rounded rectangles) in the ImageView?

Answer 1

Why not do clipping in draw()?

Here is my solution:

• Extend RelativeLayout with clipping
• Put ImageView (or other views) into the layout:

Code:

public class RoundRelativeLayout extends RelativeLayout {

    private final float radius;

    public RoundRelativeLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);

        TypedArray attrArray = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs,
                R.styleable.RoundRelativeLayout);
        radius = attrArray.getDimension(
                R.styleable.RoundRelativeLayout_radius, 0);
    }

    private boolean isPathValid;
    private final Path path = new Path();

    private Path getRoundRectPath() {
        if (isPathValid) {
            return path;
        }

        path.reset();

        int width = getWidth();
        int height = getHeight();
        RectF bounds = new RectF(0, 0, width, height);

        path.addRoundRect(bounds, radius, radius, Direction.CCW);
        isPathValid = true;
        return path;
    }

    @Override
    protected void dispatchDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        canvas.clipPath(getRoundRectPath());
        super.dispatchDraw(canvas);
    }

    @Override
    public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
        canvas.clipPath(getRoundRectPath());
        super.draw(canvas);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {

        int oldWidth = getMeasuredWidth();
        int oldHeight = getMeasuredHeight();
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

        int newWidth = getMeasuredWidth();
        int newHeight = getMeasuredHeight();
        if (newWidth != oldWidth || newHeight != oldHeight) {
            isPathValid = false;
        }
    }

}
