NOTE: This library currently only works for Android API 27 and LOWER. Tested on Android.O and Android.L

What's New (1.1.1)

  • Fix crash on Android.P (28), but shadow won't appear because of limitation to draw outside view bound

What's New (1.1.0)

  • Beauty Layout, so you can make beautiful shadow on layout
  • Accessible attributes through java/kotlin, so you can call custom shadow attributes inside your java/kotlin code

Beauty Shadow Button

Usage

Add dependency into app build.gradle

compile "com.subsub.libs:buttoncustomshadow:{latestVersion}"

If gradle failed to sync, try adding maven repository into project build.gradle

buildscript{
    repositories {
        maven {
            url  "https://dl.bintray.com/subsub/maven" 
        }
    }
}

Attributes

Name Type Description
shadowRadius Dimension This attribute (combined with elevation) determines how spread apart the shadow should be. ShadowRadius also determines the amount of corner radius (roundness) of the shadow. The bigger the shadowRadius is, the bigger the corner radius. ShadowRadius should be equal or bigger than elevation.
shadowColor Color The color of the shadow
shadowXOffset Float Sets shadow horizontal (x) position relative to the view.
shadowYOffset Float Sets shadow vertical (y) position relative to the view.
shadowPercentWidth Float Sets the percentage of shadow's width relative to the button width. Value is between 0 and 1, with 0 being 0% and 1 being 100% (shadow width = button width)
shadowPercentHeight Float Sets the percentage of shadow's height relative to the button height. Value is between 0 and 1, with 0 being 0% and 1 being 100% (shadow height = button height)

Accessing attributes from java

All custom attributes can be accessed through java like below:

// set elevation
button.myElevation = activity.viewElevation

// set shadow radius
button.customShadowRadius = activity.viewShadowRadius

// set xOffset
button.xOffset = activity.viewXOffset

// set yOffset
button.yOffset = activity.viewYOffset

// set percent height
button.shadowHeight = activity.viewShadowHeight

// set percent width
button.shadowWidth = activity.viewShadowWidth
