Class Overview

A Drawable that can rotate another Drawable based on the current level value. The start and end angles of rotation can be controlled to map any circular arc to the level values range.

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

Protected Methods

protected boolean onLevelChange (int level)

Added in API level 1

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

Returns
  • Returns true if the level change has caused the appearance of the Drawable to change (that is, it needs to be drawn), else false if it looks the same and there is no need to redraw it since its last level.
