What's wrong with `ImageView`? If you'd explain it less abstract, it might be easier to answer. — Martin Zeitler, Oct 13 '19 at 19:30

I don't know your use case because you didn't post any code. ;-) Delete the solid to make the oval transparent. Move the item (oval/image) which you would like to be in the background to the first position. Try this xml for your drawable.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher_background"/>
    <item>
        <shape android:shape="oval">
            <solid android:color="@color/colorAccent"/>
        </shape>
    </item>
</layer-list>
