StarView

An animated View inspired by StarWars. This View was extracted from StarWars.Android by Yalantis and modified as a standalone View which can be perfectly used for animated backgrounds.

Sample

Check out the release page for a live preview or watch the sample video on YouTube

Getting Started

Include into your Project

Add the following dependency to your project:

dependencies {
    // other dependencies here...
    compile 'com.pddstudio:starview:{version}'
}

Make sure to replace {version} with the latest release. You can find the latest version inside the badge at the top of this readme.

Include the View into your Layout

Simply add StarView on top of your layout:

<RelativeLayout 
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="com.pddstudio.starviewdemo.MainActivity">

    <com.pddstudio.starview.StarView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

    <FrameLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <RelativeLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

            <ImageView
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_centerInParent="true"
                android:src="@drawable/sw_logo"
                android:scaleType="centerInside"
                android:padding="64dp"/>

        </RelativeLayout>

    </FrameLayout>

</RelativeLayout>

Make sure to wrap the content of your activity / fragment into an FrameLayout to use it on top of StarView

Prepare the rest of your application

  • StarView doesn't have any background, so it's recommended to set your Fragment/Activity background color to a darker one
