How to create a semi - rounded imageview in Android

Question

I want to create a Semi-circle/rounded imageview. Below is the code which i use to create a rounded imageview but i am unable to create a semi-rounded image (semi-circle)

package com.example.dynamicviews;

import android.annotation.SuppressLint;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapShader;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Color;

import android.graphics.Shader;
import android.graphics.drawable.BitmapDrawable;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.ImageView;

    }

    @Override

            result = viewHeight;
        }

        return (result + 2);
    }
}

Here is the screenshot for it :-

The desired result is shown below :- Two imageview's left semi circle and right semi circle with image resource in between :-

Answer 1

One of my project I have same half circle and inside Need to show some image, So I just use simple trick,I just create one half circle image and set as src of image view and then I set another image as background. you can also have some trick like just create simple frame layout and set some half circle image as a background and use some image view in side that frame layout and set some other image to that image view. I hope this might give you some basic idea for achieving your task. good luck :)

Answer 2

What I did in a javascript project was to put div with rounded corners with radius equal to half of width/height. For semi-circle, you could do a rectangle of h x w, where h=2*w. Top-left and bottom-left radius r would be r=w.

A link to an answer that says how to round corners in Android: round corners

I know it's not complete, but it gives an idea. And creativity is all about getting different ways to solve unique problems. Hope it helps!

Answer 3

Try this

<shape xmlns:android="http//schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:shape="semicircle">
<solid android:background="@drawable/yourimage" />
<size android:width="60dp"
    android:height="40dp" />
</shape>

then in your class id = shape lets say

Shape shape = (Shape) findViewById(R.id.shape);
shape.split(10dp , center);
