android.support.v4.widget.CircleImageView does not work
Solution 1:
The CircleImageView
is a private class of the support library and cannot be used. But it is easy to create this effect yourself without the CircleImageView
. You just need to define a <shape />
drawable with a transparent circle in the middle similar to this:
<shape
android:innerRadius="0dp"
android:shape="ring"
android:thicknessRatio="1"
android:useLevel="false" >
<solid android:color="@android:color/transparent" />
<stroke
android:width="100dp"
android:color="#FFFFFFFF" />
</shape>
After that just combine the image you want to display in the ImageView
with the <shape />
drawable from above in a LayerList
like this:
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:drawable="@drawable/your_image" />
<item android:drawable="@drawable/circle" />
</layer-list>
If the image you want to display is dynamic then you can create the LayerList
programmatically!
Solution 2:
I found a replacement for android.support.v4.widget.CircleImageView.
<de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="@+id/meal_image_order"
android:layout_width="96dp"
android:layout_height="96dp"
android:src="@drawable/menu1"
app:civ_border_width="2dp"
app:civ_border_color="@color/white"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" />

Solution 3:
CircleImageView
is a private class from v4
, so basically you can't use it. It is used internally for rendering the progress circle in a SwipeRefreshLayout
, but is not meant to be inflated by yourself.
See here for reference.
Solution 4:
If you want to do it in a native style just use this snippet
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
android:id="@+id/view2"
android:layout_width="45dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:shape="ring"
app:cardCornerRadius="23dp">
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/profile_img_post"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="@drawable/test_img"></ImageView>
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
