I have a progress bar that is supposed to look like the attached image:
And I\'
Try this , you may be able to do what you want by modifying the color and width and height of the thumb and the seekbar in xml.
you can see the image here
This sulotion was the only way i could do this. Hope this help
this is my seekbar :
<SeekBar
android:id="@+id/simpleProgressBar"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="12dp"
android:max="100"
android:progress="0"
android:background="@null"
android:shape="oval"
android:splitTrack="false"
android:progressDrawable="@drawable/progress_background"
android:secondaryProgress="0"
android:thumbOffset="10dp"
android:thumb="@drawable/oval_seekbar_thumb" />
this is (progress_background.xml) :
<item android:id="@android:id/background">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:endColor="@color/grey_line"
android:startColor="@color/grey_line" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/secondaryProgress">
<clip>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<corners android:radius="5dp" />
<gradient
android:angle="270"
android:endColor="@color/blue"
android:startColor="@color/blue" />
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
<clip>
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="90dp" />
<gradient
android:angle="90"
android:endColor="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
android:startColor="@color/colorPrimary" />
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
and this is the thumb (oval_seekbar_thumb.xml) :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<solid android:color="#ffffff" />
<stroke android:color="@color/colorPrimaryDark" android:width="3dp"/>
<size android:height="12dp" android:width="12dp"/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
The height of the thumb should be same as the height of the seekbar to look properly.
Not sure if you can actually round out the edges through API, but you could very easily add a new layer between your white outline, and your actual progress object? The layer could be an exact cutout of the white outline, and thus the progress bar would not show outside the outline.
