How to make an ImageView with rounded corners?

Solution 1:

This is pretty late in response, but for anyone else that is looking for this, you can do the following code to manually round the corners of your images.

This isn't my code, but I've used it and it's works wonderfully. I used it as a helper within an ImageHelper class and extended it just a bit to pass in the amount of feathering I need for a given image.

Final code looks like this:

package com.company.app.utils;

import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.graphics.PorterDuffXfermode;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.graphics.RectF;
import android.graphics.Bitmap.Config;
import android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode;

public class ImageHelper {
    public static Bitmap getRoundedCornerBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int pixels) {
        Bitmap output = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap
                .getHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888);
        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(output);

        final int color = 0xff424242;
        final Paint paint = new Paint();
        final Rect rect = new Rect(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
        final RectF rectF = new RectF(rect);
        final float roundPx = pixels;

        paint.setAntiAlias(true);
        canvas.drawARGB(0, 0, 0, 0);
        paint.setColor(color);
        canvas.drawRoundRect(rectF, roundPx, roundPx, paint);

        paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.SRC_IN));
        canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, rect, rect, paint);

        return output;
    }
}

Solution 2:

Another easy way is to use a CardView with the corner radius and an ImageView inside:

  <androidx.cardview.widget.CardView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            app:cardCornerRadius="8dp"
            android:layout_margin="5dp"
            android:elevation="10dp">

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/roundedImageView"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:src="@drawable/image"
                android:background="@color/white"
                android:scaleType="centerCrop"
                />
        </androidx.cardview.widget.CardView>

Solution 3:

Clipping to rounded shapes was added to the View class in API 21.

Just do this:

• Create a rounded shape drawable, something like this:

res/drawable/round_outline.xml

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <corners android:radius="10dp" />
    ...
</shape>

• Set the drawable as your ImageView's background: android:background="@drawable/round_outline"
• According to this documentation, then all you need to do is add android:clipToOutline="true"

Unfortunately, there's a bug and that XML attribute is not recognized. Luckily, we can still set up clipping in Java:

• In your activity or fragment: ImageView.setClipToOutline(true)

Here's what it will look like:

Note:

This method works for any drawable shape (not just rounded). It will clip the ImageView to whatever shape outline you've defined in your Drawable xml.

Special note about ImageViews

setClipToOutline() only works when the View's background is set to a shape drawable. If this background shape exists, View treats the shape's outline as the borders for clipping and shadowing purposes.

This means, if you want to use setClipToOutline() to round the corners on an ImageView, your image must be set using android:src instead of android:background (since background must be set to your rounded shape). If you MUST use background to set your image instead of src, you can use this workaround:

• Create a layout and set its background to your shape drawable
• Wrap that layout around your ImageView (with no padding)
• The ImageView (including anything else in the layout) will now display with rounded layout shape.
