[android] How to Apply Corner Radius to LinearLayout

I want to make a layout with a rounded border. How can I apply a radius of a particular size in a LinearLayout?

This question is related to android android-layout

The answer is


You would use a Shape Drawable as the layout's background and set its cornerRadius. Check this blog for a detailed tutorial


try this, for Programmatically to set a background with radius to LinearLayout or any View.

 private Drawable getDrawableWithRadius() {

    GradientDrawable gradientDrawable   =   new GradientDrawable();
    gradientDrawable.setCornerRadii(new float[]{20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20});
    gradientDrawable.setColor(Color.RED);
    return gradientDrawable;
}

LinearLayout layout = new LinearLayout(this);
layout.setBackground(getDrawableWithRadius());

Layout

<LinearLayout 
    android:id="@+id/linearLayout"
    android:layout_width="300dp"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:layout_height="300dp"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:background="@drawable/rounded_edge">
 </LinearLayout>

Drawable folder rounded_edge.xml

<shape 
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid 
        android:color="@android:color/darker_gray">
    </solid>
    <stroke 
         android:width="0dp" 
         android:color="#424242">
    </stroke>
    <corners 
         android:topLeftRadius="100dip"
         android:topRightRadius="100dip"
         android:bottomLeftRadius="100dip"
         android:bottomRightRadius="100dip">
    </corners>
</shape>
