Hi
all, just thought I'd post this simple snippet that I've just
found.
This allows you to simply add a border ( even with rounded
corners!) to a layout or view.
All you need to do is create a new
xml file somewhere in /res/drawable called 'the_border.xml'
with
this or similar as the contents:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#FFFFFF" />
<padding android:left="7dp" android:top="13dp"
android:right="7dp" android:bottom="17dp" />
<corners android:radius="4dp" />
</shape>
You
can then reference this as the background of an item in your layout
like this (in xml)
android:background="@drawable/the_border"
or like this in code:llErrorMessage.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.the_border);
Nice
eh?
my dialog's background color bleeds out at the corner. its just drawing the border white color in round corner and the dialog box is still solid square.
