I have a Custom Class of TextView . I have implemented gradient attribute as the color of textview.
But i only managed to implement it in xml. I'm new to custom views. I don't know how can I add setStartColor , setEndColor in my custom TextView class.



values/attr



<declare-styleable name="GradientTextView">
<attr name="startColor" format="color" />
<attr name="endColor" format="color" />
</declare-styleable>


GradientTextView



public class GradientTextView extends AppCompatTextView {
public GradientTextView(Context context) {
super(context);

}
public GradientTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
TypedArray a=context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs,R.styleable.GradientTextView);
int startColor = a.getColor(R.styleable.GradientTextView_startColor, Color.WHITE);
int endColor = a.getColor(R.styleable.GradientTextView_endColor, Color.WHITE);
Shader myShader = new LinearGradient(0, 0, 0, 100,startColor, endColor, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
this.getPaint().setShader(myShader);
a.recycle();
}
}


XML



<mehran.design.GradientTextView
android:id="@+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:startColor="@color/yellow"
app:endColor="@color/blue"/>

  • add the setStartColor and setEndColor methods, and do the same thing as you do in constructor

  • Wrap the shader logic inside a helper method and call this method internally inside setStartColor(int) and setEndColor(int) -- after updating the fields startColor and endColor.

    define variable startColor and endColor
    and also setters for it



    like



    public void setStartColor(int color) {
    this.startColor= color;
    --- do your logic----
    invalidate();
    }
