Converting a CSS radial-gradient to Android has been a challenge for me, as the CSS version includes multiple colors and stops. Here is an example of the CSS code:
background-image: radial-gradient(circle at 24% 50%, #ffffff, #c0e3e0 20%, #a4c4d7 61%, #000000);
I attempted to replicate this in Android using the following XML shape code:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle"
>
<gradient
android:centerX="36%"
android:centerY="50%"
android:endColor="#000000"
android:gradientRadius="300"
android:startColor="#ffffff"
android:type="radial"
/>
</shape>
However, I realized that it was not possible to include all the colors and stops using this method.
Instead, I decided to use RadialGradient in my Java code:
RadialGradient radialGradient = new RadialGradient(0.25f, 0.45f, 140.f, new int[]{
ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.background_gradient_start_color),
ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.background_gradient_second_color),
ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.background_gradient_third_color),
ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.background_gradient_end_color)}, new float[]{1.0f, 0.2f, .61f, 1.0f},
Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
Unfortunately, I am facing an issue where I cannot set the RadialGradient as the background of my RelativeLayout because it is not an instance of android.graphics.Drawable. Can anyone suggest a solution?
