Class Overview

A Drawable that insets another Drawable by a specified distance. This is used when a View needs a background that is smaller than the View's actual bounds.

It can be defined in an XML file with the <inset> element. For more information, see the guide to Drawable Resources.

XML Attributes

android:drawable

Reference to a drawable resource to use for the frame. If not given, the drawable must be defined by the first child tag.

Must be a reference to another resource, in the form "@[+][package:]type:name" or to a theme attribute in the form "?[package:][type:]name".

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol drawable.

android:visible

Provides initial visibility state of the drawable; the default value is false. See setVisible(boolean, boolean).

Must be a boolean value, either "true" or "false".

This may also be a reference to a resource (in the form "@[package:]type:name") or theme attribute (in the form "?[package:][type:]name") containing a value of this type.

This corresponds to the global attribute resource symbol visible.

Public Constructors

public InsetDrawable (Drawable drawable, int inset)

Added in API level 1

Creates a new inset drawable with the specified inset.

Parameters
drawable The drawable to inset.
inset Inset in pixels around the drawable.

public InsetDrawable (Drawable drawable, int insetLeft, int insetTop, int insetRight, int insetBottom)

Added in API level 1

Creates a new inset drawable with the specified insets.

Parameters
drawable The drawable to inset.
insetLeft Left inset in pixels.
insetTop Top inset in pixels.
insetRight Right inset in pixels.
insetBottom Bottom inset in pixels.

Public Methods

public void applyTheme (Resources.Theme t)

Added in API level 21

Applies the specified theme to this Drawable and its children.

public int getIntrinsicHeight ()

Added in API level 1

Return the intrinsic height of the underlying drawable object. Returns -1 if it has no intrinsic height, such as with a solid color.

public int getIntrinsicWidth ()

Added in API level 1

Return the intrinsic width of the underlying drawable object. Returns -1 if it has no intrinsic width, such as with a solid color.

public int getOpacity ()

Added in API level 1

Return the opacity/transparency of this Drawable. The returned value is one of the abstract format constants in PixelFormat: UNKNOWN, TRANSLUCENT, TRANSPARENT, or OPAQUE.

An OPAQUE drawable is one that draws all all content within its bounds, completely covering anything behind the drawable. A TRANSPARENT drawable is one that draws nothing within its bounds, allowing everything behind it to show through. A TRANSLUCENT drawable is a drawable in any other state, where the drawable will draw some, but not all, of the content within its bounds and at least some content behind the drawable will be visible. If the visibility of the drawable's contents cannot be determined, the safest/best return value is TRANSLUCENT.

Generally a Drawable should be as conservative as possible with the value it returns. For example, if it contains multiple child drawables and only shows one of them at a time, if only one of the children is TRANSLUCENT and the others are OPAQUE then TRANSLUCENT should be returned. You can use the method resolveOpacity(int, int) to perform a standard reduction of two opacities to the appropriate single output.

Note that the returned value does not necessarily take into account a custom alpha or color filter that has been applied by the client through the setAlpha(int) or setColorFilter(ColorFilter) methods. Some subclasses, such as BitmapDrawable, ColorDrawable, and GradientDrawable, do account for the value of setAlpha(int), but the general behavior is dependent upon the implementation of the subclass.

Returns
  • int The opacity class of the Drawable.

public void getOutline (Outline outline)

Added in API level 21

Called to get the drawable to populate the Outline that defines its drawing area.

This method is called by the default ViewOutlineProvider to define the outline of the View.

The default behavior defines the outline to be the bounding rectangle of 0 alpha. Subclasses that wish to convey a different shape or alpha value must override this method.

public boolean getPadding (Rect padding)

Added in API level 1

Return in padding the insets suggested by this Drawable for placing content inside the drawable's bounds. Positive values move toward the center of the Drawable (set Rect.inset).

Returns
  • true if this drawable actually has a padding, else false. When false is returned, the padding is always set to 0.

public void inflate (Resources r, XmlPullParser parser, AttributeSet attrs, Resources.Theme theme)

Added in API level 21

Inflate this Drawable from an XML resource optionally styled by a theme.

Parameters
r Resources used to resolve attribute values
parser XML parser from which to inflate this Drawable
attrs Base set of attribute values
theme Theme to apply, may be null

Protected Methods

protected void onBoundsChange (Rect bounds)

Added in API level 1

Override this in your subclass to change appearance if you vary based on the bounds.
