How to get round shape in Android [duplicate]
You need to create a shape drawable in the drawable folder that looks something like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="oval" > <gradient android:startColor="#FFFF0000" android:endColor="#80FF00FF" android:angle="270"/></shape>(For this example I have saved the drawable as circle.xml and it will have a gradient fill)
Then in your layout you need to define a view and set the shape as the background:
<View android:layout_width="50dp" android:layout_height="50dp" android:background="@drawable/circle"/>The View defines the size and dimensions of the shape.
