I have a very basic layout as follows. I'm just using a red background in the ImageView just to depict the situation.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/custom_bg_grey_stroke_radius"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/IV"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:background="#ff0000" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Text"
android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/IV" />
</RelativeLayout>
This is the custom background I'm using:
custom_bg_grey_stroke_radius.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<!-- background color of the entire rectangle -->
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
<!-- color of borders -->
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#c1c1c1" />
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="4dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="4dp"
android:topLeftRadius="4dp"
android:topRightRadius="4dp" />
</shape>
I found various links which make the images circular but from all the 4 corners. This link tells how to make image circular from top or bottom. Android round a Layouts background image, only top or bottom corners
Can someone please figure out how to make Image circular from the left. It would be good if I could specify the exact radius. I want it just barely circular around 5dp.
And, I apologize for the repetitiveness, but I'm just not able to work this out.
