Outline

public final class Outline
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.graphics.Outline

Defines a simple shape, used for bounding graphical regions.

Can be computed for a View, or computed by a Drawable, to drive the shape of shadows cast by a View, or to clip the contents of the View.

Inherited methods

From class


        
          java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeout)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

Public constructors

Outline

Added in API level 21

public Outline ()

Constructs an empty Outline. Call one of the setter methods to make the outline valid for use with a View.

Outline

Added in API level 21

public Outline (Outline src)

Constructs an Outline with a copy of the data in src.

Parameters
`src`	`Outline`: This value must never be `null`.

Public methods

canClip

Added in API level 21

public boolean canClip ()

Returns whether the outline can be used to clip a View.

Currently, only Outlines that can be represented as a rectangle, circle, or round rect support clipping.

Returns
`boolean`

See also:

View.setClipToOutline(boolean)

getAlpha

Added in API level 21

public float getAlpha ()

Returns the alpha represented by the Outline.

Returns
`float`

getRadius

Added in API level 24

public float getRadius ()

Returns the rounded rect radius, if set, or a value less than 0 if a path has been set via setConvexPath(android.graphics.Path). A return value of 0 indicates a non-rounded rect.

Returns
`float`	the rounded rect radius, or value < 0

getRect

Added in API level 24

public boolean getRect (Rect outRect)

Populates outBounds with the outline bounds, if set, and returns true. If no outline bounds are set, or if a path has been set via setConvexPath(android.graphics.Path), returns false.

Parameters
`outRect`	`Rect`: the rect to populate with the outline bounds, if set This value must never be `null`.

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if `outBounds` was populated with outline bounds, or `false` if no outline bounds are set

isEmpty

Added in API level 21

public boolean isEmpty ()

Returns whether the Outline is empty.

Outlines are empty when constructed, or if setEmpty() is called, until a setter method is called

Returns
`boolean`

See also:

setEmpty()

offset

Added in API level 22

public void offset (int dx, 
                int dy)

Offsets the Outline by (dx,dy)

Parameters
`dx`	`int`
`dy`	`int`

set

Added in API level 21

public void set (Outline src)

Replace the contents of this Outline with the contents of src.

Parameters
`src`	`Outline`: Source outline to copy from. This value must never be `null`.

setAlpha

Added in API level 21

public void setAlpha (float alpha)

Sets the alpha represented by the Outline - the degree to which the producer is guaranteed to be opaque over the Outline's shape.

An alpha value of 0.0f either represents completely transparent content, or content that isn't guaranteed to fill the shape it publishes.

Content producing a fully opaque (alpha = 1.0f) outline is assumed by the drawing system to fully cover content beneath it, meaning content beneath may be optimized away.

Parameters
`alpha`	`float`: Value is between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive

setConvexPath

Added in API level 21

public void setConvexPath (Path convexPath)

Sets the Constructs an Outline from a convex path.

Parameters
`convexPath`	`Path`: This value must never be `null`.

setEmpty

Added in API level 21

public void setEmpty ()

Sets the outline to be empty.

See also:

isEmpty()

setOval

Added in API level 21

public void setOval (Rect rect)

Convenience for setOval(int, int, int, int)

Parameters
`rect`	`Rect`: This value must never be `null`.

setOval

Added in API level 21

public void setOval (int left, 
                int top, 
                int right, 
                int bottom)

Sets the outline to the oval defined by input rect.

Parameters
`left`	`int`
`top`	`int`
`right`	`int`
`bottom`	`int`

setRect

Added in API level 21

public void setRect (Rect rect)

Convenience for setRect(int, int, int, int)

Parameters
`rect`	`Rect`: This value must never be `null`.

setRect

Added in API level 21

public void setRect (int left, 
                int top, 
                int right, 
                int bottom)

Sets the Outline to the rounded rect defined by the input rect, and corner radius.

Parameters
`left`	`int`
`top`	`int`
`right`	`int`
`bottom`	`int`

setRoundRect

Added in API level 21

public void setRoundRect (Rect rect, 
                float radius)

Convenience for setRoundRect(int, int, int, int, float)

Parameters
`rect`	`Rect`: This value must never be `null`.
`radius`	`float`

setRoundRect

Added in API level 21

                int bottom, 
                float radius)

Sets the Outline to the rounded rect defined by the input rect, and corner radius.

Passing a zero radius is equivalent to calling setRect(int, int, int, int)

`bottom`	`int`
`radius`	`float`
