How to make a shape with left-top round rounded corner and left-bottom rounded corner?

I want to make a shape with with left-top rounded corner and left-bottom rounded corner:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> 
    <solid android:color="#555555"/>    

    <stroke android:width="3dp"
            android:color="#555555"
            />

    <padding android:left="1dp"
             android:top="1dp"
             android:right="1dp"
             android:bottom="1dp"
             /> 

    <corners android:bottomRightRadius="0dp" android:bottomLeftRadius="2dp" 
     android:topLeftRadius="2dp" android:topRightRadius="0dp"/> 
</shape>

But the shape above didn't give me what I want. It gives me a rectangle without any rounded corners.

Solution 1:

It looks like a bug http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=939.

Finally I have to write something like this:

 <stroke android:width="3dp"
         android:color="#555555"
         />

 <padding android:left="1dp"
          android:top="1dp"
          android:right="1dp"
          android:bottom="1dp"
          /> 

 <corners android:radius="1dp"
  android:bottomRightRadius="2dp" android:bottomLeftRadius="0dp" 
  android:topLeftRadius="2dp" android:topRightRadius="0dp"/> 

I have to specify android:bottomRightRadius="2dp" for left-bottom rounded corner (another bug here).

Solution 2:

While this question has been answered already (it's a bug that causes bottomLeftRadius and bottomRightRadius to be reversed), the bug has been fixed in android 3.1 (api level 12 - tested on the emulator).

So to make sure your drawables look correct on all platforms, you should put "corrected" versions of the drawables (i.e. where bottom left/right radii are actually correct in the xml) in the res/drawable-v12 folder of your app. This way all devices using an android version >= 12 will use the correct drawable files, while devices using older versions of android will use the "workaround" drawables that are located in the res/drawables folder.
