I have the following gradient (generated dynamically):
GradientDrawable dynamicDrawable = new GradientDrawable();
dynamicDrawable.setGradientType(GradientDrawable.LINEAR_GRADIENT);
dynamicDrawable.setUseLevel(false);
int colors[] = new int[3];
colors[0] = Color.parseColor("#711234");
colors[1] = Color.parseColor("#269869");
colors[2] = Color.parseColor("#269869");
dynamicDrawable.setColors(colors);
and I want to set that drawable in a view using onDraw method.
When I want to assign a Drawable to a bitmap I use the casting (BitmapDrawable), but in that case is not possible due the gradientDrawable cannot be cast to BitmapDrawable.
Any idea about how I solve that?
Thanks in advance
I finally found the solution from your response. I paste the code for someone could need it:
private Bitmap createDynamicGradient(String color) {
int colors[] = new int[3];
colors[0] = Color.parseColor(color);
colors[1] = Color.parseColor("#123456");
colors[2] = Color.parseColor("#123456");
LinearGradient gradient = new LinearGradient(0, 0, 0, 400, Color.RED, Color.TRANSPARENT, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
Paint p = new Paint();
p.setDither(true);
p.setShader(gradient);
Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(getWidth(), getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
canvas.drawRect(new RectF(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight()), p);
return bitmap;
}
You can use below code mention in: Android: Convert Drawable to Bitmap
public Bitmap convertToBitmap(Drawable drawable, int widthPixels, int heightPixels) {
Bitmap mutableBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(widthPixels, heightPixels, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(mutableBitmap);
drawable.setBounds(0, 0, widthPixels, heightPixels);
drawable.draw(canvas);
return mutableBitmap;
}
