2D graphics with Effects

In this article help us to set the different type of effect in the drawable.

Effects

Shadow Effect
This draws a shadow layer below the main layer, with the specified offset and color, and blur radius.


MaskFilterEffect
MaskFilter is the base class for object that perform transformations on an alpha-channel mask before drawing it. A subclass of MaskFilter may be installed into a Paint. Blur and emboss are implemented as subclasses of MaskFilter.

Sample Implementation:
Blur Filter
paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(15, Blur.INNER));
paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(15, Blur.OUTER));
paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(15, Blur.SOLID));
paint.setMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(15, Blur.NORMAL));

Emboss Filter
paint.setMaskFilter(new EmbossMaskFilter(new float[] { 1, 1, 1 },0.4f, 10, 8.2f));

Shader Effect
Shader is the based class for objects that return horizontal spans of colors during drawing. A subclass of Shader is installed in a Paint calling paint.setShader(shader). After that any object (other than a bitmap) that is drawn with that paint will get its color(s) from the shader.

Shader Sample Implementation:
LinearGradient
paint.setShader(new LinearGradient(8f, 80f, 30f, 20f, Color.RED,Color.WHITE, Shader.TileMode.MIRROR));

RadialGradient
paint.setShader(new RadialGradient(8f, 80f, 90f, Color.RED,Color.WHITE, Shader.TileMode.MIRROR));

SweepGradient
paint.setShader(new SweepGradient(80, 80, Color.RED, Color.WHITE));
