  • 772

I need to place the date as título de un Listviewbut inside a bubble, could someone tell me how to do it.

Here is the code to put thefecha como título:

    readFechaActual();
    TextView textView = new TextView(context);
    textView.setText(stringDate);
    listView.addHeaderView(textView);

With this code I get this: enter image description here

But what I need is a title like this: enter image description here

Here the file to create the bubble: drawable/time_message.xml:

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="@color/SALMON" />
<corners android:radius="20dp" />

  1. Best Answer

    You can use setBackgroundResource to programmatically set the style, it would look like this:

    textView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.time_message);

    With regard to your style shapeyou can add a padding:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <padding
        android:bottom="16dp"
        android:left="16dp"
        android:right="16dp"
        android:top="16dp" />
    <solid android:color="@color/colorPrimary" />
    <corners android:radius="20dp" />
</shape>

    You can play with paddinghim at your convenience.

  2. You can make several options, first create your background

     <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
 <shape android:shape="rectangle">
 <solid android:color="@color/SALMON"/>
 <corners android:radius="20dp" />
 </shape>
</item>
</selector>

    define it as background to your TextViewin the layout :

     <TextView
 android:id="@+id/myTextView"
 ...
 ...
 android:background="@drawable/fondo_redondo"

 />

    You can also define the background programmatically:

    textView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.fondo_redondo);

    you would get something similar to:
