Android-FadingEdgeLayout

A versatile layout that fades its edges regardless of child view type.

What is available:

• Four fading edges that are individually configurable
• Length of fading edge is adjustable
• Supports any type of child View

Usage

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.bosphere.android-fadingedgelayout:fadingedgelayout:1.0.0'
}

<com.bosphere.fadingedgelayout.FadingEdgeLayout
    android:id="@+id/fading_edge_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    app:fel_edge="top|left|bottom|right"
    app:fel_size_top="80dp"
    app:fel_size_bottom="80dp"
    app:fel_size_left="80dp"
    app:fel_size_right="80dp">

    <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

</com.bosphere.fadingedgelayout.FadingEdgeLayout>

FadingEdgeLayout mFadingEdgeLayout = ...;
mFadingEdgeLayout.setFadeEdges(mEnableTop, mEnableLeft, mEnableBottom, mEnableRight);
mFadingEdgeLayout.setFadeSizes(lenPx, lenPx, lenPx, lenPx);

The fading edges are not implemented as color overlay but rather linear gradient alpha mask of the content. So it'll naturally follow the color of the background.

Compatibility
