android -Why custom drawable not effecting textview

Question

this is my drawable code:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle" >

    <corners
        android:bottomLeftRadius="7dp"
        android:bottomRightRadius="7dp"
        android:topLeftRadius="7dp"
        android:topRightRadius="7dp" />

    <solid android:color="#3C1251" />
</shape>

This is a xml file called haraj.xml in my drawable folder .

This is my xml layout :

<TextView 
        android:id="@+id/harajamount"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:layout_marginLeft="15dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
        android:textColor="#fff"
        android:textSize="15sp"
        android:padding="8dp"
        android:background="@drawable/haraj"
        android:text="2500"
        />

Strangely it's not effecting textview. I get textview with no background color and no corners .

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Whats your background right now? Hope it will not be the #3C1251. Because i have just try with your code. Its working perfect and giving proper background to textview with color.

Hope you might get any help. Let me know if its not working...

Enjoy Coding... :)

Answer 2

try this

<corners android:radius="7dp"/>

instead of

<corners
        android:bottomLeftRadius="7dp"
        android:bottomRightRadius="7dp"
        android:topLeftRadius="7dp"
        android:topRightRadius="7dp" />

try this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle" >

    <corners android:radius="10dp" />

    <solid android:color="#3C1251" />

    <size android:height="23dp" />

</shape>
