setShadowLayer Android API differences

android paint shadow

Solution 1:

setShadowLayer() is only supported on text when hardware acceleration is on. Hardware acceleration is on by default when targetSdk=14 or higher. An easy workaround is to put your View in a software layer: myView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null).
