Convert GradientDrawable to Bitmap

Question

I have the following gradient (generated dynamically):

    GradientDrawable dynamicDrawable = new GradientDrawable();
    dynamicDrawable.setGradientType(Gra         


        

Answer 1

I finally found the solution from your response. I paste the code for someone could need it:

private Bitmap createDynamicGradient(String color) {
    int colors[] = new int[3];
    colors[0] = Color.parseColor(color);
    colors[1] = Color.parseColor("#123456");
    colors[2] = Color.parseColor("#123456");

    LinearGradient gradient = new LinearGradient(0, 0, 0, 400, Color.RED, Color.TRANSPARENT, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
    Paint p = new Paint();
    p.setDither(true);
    p.setShader(gradient);

    Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(getWidth(), getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
    canvas.drawRect(new RectF(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight()), p);

    return bitmap;
}

Answer 2

• Create a mutable bitmap using Bitmap.createBitmap()
• Create a Canvas based on the bitmap using new Canvas(bitmap)
• Then call draw(canvas) on your GradientDrawable

Answer 3

You can use below code mention in: Android: Convert Drawable to Bitmap

public Bitmap convertToBitmap(Drawable drawable, int widthPixels, int heightPixels) {
    Bitmap mutableBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(widthPixels, heightPixels, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(mutableBitmap);
    drawable.setBounds(0, 0, widthPixels, heightPixels);
    drawable.draw(canvas);

    return mutableBitmap;
}
