Answer 1

For anyone who like do things in XML, specially in case where you are using Navigation architecture component actions in order to navigate to dialogs

You can use:

<style name="DialogStyle" parent="ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Dialog.Alert">

    <!-- dialog_background is drawable shape with corner radius -->
    <item name="android:background">@drawable/dialog_background</item>

    <item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
</style>

Answer 2

You can simply use MaterialAlertDialogBuilder to create custom dialog with rounded corners.

First create a style for the material dialog like this :

<style name="MyRounded.MaterialComponents.MaterialAlertDialog" parent="@style/ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.MaterialAlertDialog">
    <item name="shapeAppearanceOverlay">@style/ShapeAppearanceOverlay.App.CustomDialog.Rounded
    </item>
    <item name="colorSurface">@color/YOUR_COLOR</item>
</style>

<style name="ShapeAppearanceOverlay.App.CustomDialog.Rounded" parent="">
    <item name="cornerFamily">rounded</item>
    <item name="cornerSize">10dp</item>
</style>

then create a Alert Dialog object in Java class like this :

AlertDialog alertDialog =  new MaterialAlertDialogBuilder(this,R.style.MyRounded_MaterialComponents_MaterialAlertDialog)  // for fragment you can use getActivity() instead of this 
                    .setView(R.layout.custom_layout) // custom layout is here 
                    .show();

            final EditText editText = alertDialog.findViewById(R.id.custom_layout_text);   // access to text view of custom layout         
            Button btn = alertDialog.findViewById(R.id.custom_layout_btn);

            btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {

                    Log.d(TAG, "onClick: " + editText.getText().toString());
                }
            });

That's all you need to do.

Setting

dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));

will prevent dialog to cast a shadow.

Solution is to use

dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawableResource(R.drawable.dialog_rounded_background);

where is R.drawable.dialog_rounded_background

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
    <item>
        <shape android:shape="rectangle" android:padding="10dp">
            <solid
                android:color="@color/dialog_bg_color"/>
            <corners
                android:radius="30dp" />
        </shape>
    </item>

</layer-list>

Answer 4

For API level >= 28 available attribute android:dialogCornerRadius . To support previous API versions need use

<style name="RoundedDialog" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/dialog_bg</item>
    </style>

where dialog_bg.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item >
        <shape >
            <solid android:color="@android:color/transparent" />
        </shape>
    </item>
    <item
        android:left="16dp"
        android:right="16dp">
        <shape>
            <solid
                android:color="@color/white"/>
            <corners
                android:radius="8dp" />

            <padding
                android:left="16dp"
                android:right="16dp" />
        </shape>
    </item>
</layer-list>

Answer 5

I made a new way without having a background drawable is that make it have CardView as parent and give it a app:cardCornerRadius="20dp" and then add this in the java class dialog.getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));

It's another way to make it .

Answer 6

You can use the shape for the background as-

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="@android:color/transparent"/>
<corners android:radius="10dp" />
<padding android:left="10dp" android:right="10dp"/>
</shape>

Have a look on this for the details.
