How to create instagram like Gradient color transition in android.
1. Create some gradient color drawables inside drawable Folder.
color1.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient
android:startColor="#614385"
android:endColor="#516395"
android:angle="0"/>
</shape>
color2.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient
android:startColor="#5f2c82"
android:endColor="#49a09d"
android:angle="45"/>
</shape>color3.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient
android:startColor="#4776E6"
android:endColor="#8E54E9"
android:angle="90"/>
</shape>color4.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient
android:startColor="#7141e2"
android:endColor="#d46cb3"
android:angle="135"/>
</shape>2. Create animation list using the above created gradient colors, animation_list.xml, inside drawable folder
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animation-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/color1"
android:duration="10000" />
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/color2"
android:duration="10000" />
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/color3"
android:duration="10000" />
<item
android:drawable="@drawable/color4"
android:duration="10000" />
</animation-list>3. Apply the animation_list created above as a background to the top view of your activity layout.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="@drawable/animation_list"
android:id="@+id/container">
<!-- Child Views -->
</LinearLayout>4. Inside your activity use AnimationDrawable to apply the transition.
LinearLayout container = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.container);
AnimationDrawable anim = (AnimationDrawable) container.getBackground();
anim.setEnterFadeDuration(6000);
anim.setExitFadeDuration(2000);
// Starting animation:- start the animation on onResume.
@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if (anim != null && !anim.isRunning())
anim.start();
}
// Stopping animation:- stop the animation on onPause.
@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
if (anim != null && anim.isRunning())
anim.stop();
}Make statusbar transparent
