I want to make a button for my shape like this one Is there a way to do this with xml ? Like setting some points, in my case I have 5.. What you need is to create a shape xml file in your project's drawable-xxx folder and then use this shape as background for a button.

I'm trying to make a thumb for a seekbar for my app, and I want to have an inner circle surrounded by a different, larger (semi-transparent) outer circle.

I have created a circle with a stroke and white background using xml. How can this be filled gradually from bottom to top on user actions(e.g. on successive button press)? Is there any free library which can be used to achieve similar thing? I created a Custom View class that will do what you want. There are four custom attributes that can be set in your layout xml: fillColor , color - Sets the color of the fill area. Default is Color.WHITE . strokeColor , color - Sets the color of the bounding circle. Default is Color.BLACK . strokeWidth , float - Sets the thickness of the bounding circle.

Is it possible to create an Android shape object with stroke on only certain sides? Eg I have: <stroke android:width="3dip" android:color="#000000" android:dashWidth="10dip" android:dashGap="6dip" /> Which is similar to this CSS: border: 3px dashed black; How can I set the stroke on just one side? This is how I would do it in CSS: border-left: 3px dashed black; How do you do this in Android XML? I achieved a good solution with this one: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <!-- This is the line --> <item android:top="
