在Android中用文本标记三角形

Question

I want to create a label with the triangle shape for cardview as displayed in below image. Is there a way that I can specify a triangle shape in an xml file OR can I achieve it easily with any other way?

Answer 1

you can use android:background attribute, to set textview like above

Example:

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_margin="10dip" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/Name"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@drawable/cal"
        android:ellipsize="end"
        android:gravity="start|center_vertical"
        android:padding="5dp"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:text="Name"
        android:textColor="@color/darkslate"
        android:textSize="18sp"
        android:textStyle="bold" />
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView >
