Answer 1

The effect can be approximated in a Layer-List using multiple rectangular shapes. Use a solid rectangle with the center background color. Then use two gradients with the start and end colors the same. Make the center color the same also, except set the alpha to zero.

In the code below the colors are as follows:

@color/background_dark = #ffb8860b
@color/background_light = #ffd2b48c
@color/transparent = #00b8860b
