在圆圈内绘制文字

Question

I'm working on an Android application and I want to draw a circle with text inside. I want the fill to be white with a black boarder and black text. Right now I have a ShapeDrawable :

mDrawable = new ShapeDrawable(new OvalShape());
mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xFFFFFF);

This however makes the whole circle white (and with a white background you can't see it) and after a while searching as to how you can add text to the shape I can't seem to find an answer that works. I should also note that I will be adding an arbitrary number of circles with different text in each based on user input. Any help would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

You can try this alternative method.

Create a drawable file oval.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="oval" >
   <solid android:color="#fff"/>
   <stroke android:width="2px" android:color="#000"/>
</shape>

Then create a RelativeLayout and set the background with the oval drawable

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/circle"
    android:layout_width="200dp"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:background="@drawable/oval" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/text"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerInParent="true"
        android:text="@string/hello_world" />
</RelativeLayout>

The result will be something like this:

I am sure late to reply here, but this might be helpful to others.

    ShapeDrawable colorCode = new ShapeDrawable(new OvalShape());
    colorCode.getPaint().setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL); //See more paint style for border circle etc. like STROKE
    colorCode.getPaint().setAntiAlias(true);
    colorCode.getPaint().setColor(getResources().getColor(YOUR_COLOUR_HERE_FROM_XML));
    colorCode.setIntrinsicHeight(Globals.dp2px(5, getActivity())); //converting dp to px, you can just put any integer instead of dp2px method
    colorCode.setIntrinsicWidth(Globals.dp2px(5, getActivity()));
    greenText.setBackgroundDrawable(colorCode);
