Code:
private void setSpans(Editable s, @ColorInt int backgroundColor) {
BackgroundColorSpan[] spans = s.getSpans(0, s.length(), BackgroundColorSpan.class);
String[] words;
if (s.toString().endsWith(" ")) {
words = (s.toString() + "X").split("\\s");
} else {
words = s.toString().split("\\s");
}
int completedWordsCount = words.length - 1;
if (spans.length != completedWordsCount) {
for (BackgroundColorSpan span : spans) {
s.removeSpan(span);
}
int currentIndex = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < words.length-1; i++) {
s.setSpan(new CustomDrawble(Color.GRAY, Color.WHITE), currentIndex, currentIndex + words[i].length(), Spanned.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
currentIndex += words[i].length() + 1;
}
}
Above function is useful for creating spannable String
and to add Border
to it. I am calling following class:
public class CustomDrawble extends ReplacementSpan {
private int mBackgroundColor;
private int mForegroundColor;
public CustomDrawble(int backgroundColor, int foregroundColor) {
this.mBackgroundColor = backgroundColor;
this.mForegroundColor = foregroundColor;
}
@Override
public int getSize(Paint paint, CharSequence text, int start, int end, Paint.FontMetricsInt fm) {
return Math.round(measureText(paint, text, start, end));
}
@Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas, CharSequence text, int start, int end, float x, int top, int y, int bottom, Paint paint) {
float padding = 4f;
RectF rect = new RectF(x, top + 3, x + measureText(paint, text, start, end) + 10, bottom + 10);
paint.setColor(mBackgroundColor);
canvas.drawRoundRect(rect, 10,10,paint);
paint.setColor(mForegroundColor);
canvas.drawText(text, start, end, x, y, paint);
}
private float measureText(Paint paint, CharSequence text, int start, int end) {
return paint.measureText(text, start, end);
}
}
The result I am getting from above is:
The problem with the above code is:
How to add space between two
spannable
strings?How can I add space at the starting of rectangle and first character of a string similar to end of rectangle. I tried to add the space by this code :
RectF rect = new RectF(x+10, top + 3, x + measureText(paint, text, start, end) + 10, bottom + 10);
but it gave me this distorted result:
If I am not wrong then the problem with the above code is there are not enough spaces between two spannable
strings.
How can I make it correct?
Edit-1
Used this RectF rect = new RectF(x - 5, top + 3, x + measureText(paint, text, start, end)+5, bottom + 10);
Look at the first one it's slightly cutting from starting point. But If I used the above configuration I don't have enough space in two strings. This is the main Issue.
