Since your top level view already has android background property set  you can use a  lt layer-list gt   link  to create a new XML drawable that combines both your old background and your new rounded corners background   Each  lt item gt  element in the list is drawn over the next  so the last item in the list is the one that ends up on top    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt layer-list     xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android   gt       lt item gt           lt bitmap android src   drawable mydialogbox    gt       lt  item gt       lt item gt           lt shape gt               lt stroke                 android width  1dp                  android color   color common border color    gt                lt solid android color   ffffff    gt                lt padding                     android left  1dp                      android right  1dp                      android top  1dp    gt                lt corners android radius  5dp    gt           lt  shape gt       lt  item gt   lt  layer-list gt
