1 2 Android ClippingBasic Sample 3 =================================== 4 5 A basic app showing how to clip on a View using [ViewOutlineProvider][1] interface, 6 by which a View builds its outline, used for shadowing and clipping. 7 8 Introduction 9 ------------ 10 11 The [ViewOutlineProvider][1] interface offers you a method to populate the outline of a View. 12 You need to implement a getOutline(android.view.View, android.graphics.Outline) 13 method to clip a View in a specific shape. 14 15 This example clips the outline of a View as a rounded rectangle by defining a class that 16 implements ViewOutlineProvider by following code: 17 18 ```java 19 private class ClipOutlineProvider extends ViewOutlineProvider { 20 @Override 21 public void getOutline(View view, Outline outline) { 22 final int margin = Math.min(view.getWidth(), view.getHeight()) / 10; 23 outline.setRoundRect(margin, margin, view.getWidth() - margin, 24 view.getHeight() - margin, margin / 2); 25 } 26 } 27 ``` 28 29 To clip a View by the defined outline, setting a OutlineProvider to a View 30 to be clipped is needed like following: 31 32 ```java 33 final View clippedView = view.findViewById(R.id.frame); 34 clippedView.setOutlineProvider(mOutlineProvider); 35 ``` 36 37 You can toggle if the View is clipped by calling [setClipToOutline(boolean)][2] 38 like following code: 39 40 ```java 41 clippedView.setClipToOutline(true); // Setting false disable clipping 42 ``` 43 44 [1]: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/ViewOutlineProvider.html 45 [2]: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#setClipToOutline(boolean) 46 47 Pre-requisites 48 -------------- 49 50 - Android SDK v21 51 - Android Build Tools v23.0.0 52 - Android Support Repository 53 54 Screenshots 55 ------------- 56 57 <img src="screenshots/screenshot-1.png" height="400" alt="Screenshot"/> <img src="screenshots/screenshot-2.png" height="400" alt="Screenshot"/> 58 59 Getting Started 60 --------------- 61 62 This sample uses the Gradle build system.
