I've been trying to recreate a background image in xml (as drawable). Since the background is a simple shape, it would be better if it is created as xml drawable.
The is a really large gradient circle that squares off at the left, top and right border.
What I've tried
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape
android:shape="rectangle">
<size
android:height="20dp" />
<gradient
android:type="linear"
android:startColor="@color/gradientLeft"
android:centerColor="@color/gradientMiddle"
android:endColor="@color/gradientRight"
android:angle="0" />
</shape>
</item>
<item>
<shape
android:shape="oval">
<padding
android:top="20dp" />
<gradient
android:type="linear"
android:startColor="@color/gradientLeft"
android:centerColor="@color/gradientMiddle"
android:endColor="@color/gradientRight"
android:angle="0" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
I've tried to create a layer-list. This layer list contains 2 shapes, a rectangle and an oval.
The rectangle has a gradient and a height of 20dp (to test).
The oval also has the same gradient, and has a top padding of 20dp.
This however, doesn't create a circular shape, but fills the whole shape with the gradient. Can someone help me?
