public abstract class Drawable extends Object
A Drawable is a general abstraction for "something that can be drawn." Most often you will deal with Drawable as the type of resource retrieved for drawing things to the screen; the Drawable class provides a generic API for dealing with an underlying visual resource that may take a variety of forms. Unlike a View, a Drawable does not have any facility to receive events or otherwise interact with the user.

In addition to simple drawing, Drawable provides a number of generic mechanisms for its client to interact with what is being drawn:

  • The setBounds(int, int, int, int) method must be called to tell the Drawable where it is drawn and how large it should be. All Drawables should respect the requested size, often simply by scaling their imagery. A client can find the preferred size for some Drawables with the getIntrinsicHeight() and getIntrinsicWidth() methods.
  • The getPadding(icyllis.modernui.graphics.Rect) method can return from some Drawables information about how to frame content that is placed inside of them. For example, a Drawable that is intended to be the frame for a button widget would need to return padding that correctly places the label inside of itself.
  • The setState(int[]) method allows the client to tell the Drawable in which state it is to be drawn, such as "focused", "selected", etc. Some drawables may modify their imagery based on the selected state.
  • The setLevel(int) method allows the client to supply a single continuous controller that can modify the Drawable is displayed, such as a battery level or progress level. Some drawables may modify their imagery based on the current level.
  • A Drawable can perform animations by calling back to its client through the Drawable.Callback interface. All clients should support this interface (via setCallback(icyllis.modernui.graphics.drawable.Drawable.Callback)) so that animations will work. A simple way to do this is through the system facilities such as View.setBackground(Drawable) and ImageView.

Though usually not visible to the application, Drawables may take a variety of forms:

  • Image: a bitmap, like a PNG, JPEG, TGA or BMP image.
  • Vector: a drawable defined as a set of points, lines, and curves along with its associated color information. This type of drawable can be scaled without loss of display quality.
  • Shape: contains simple drawing commands instead of a raw bitmap, allowing it to resize better in some cases.
  • Layers: a compound drawable, which draws multiple underlying drawables on top of each other.
  • States: a compound drawable that selects one of a set of drawables based on its state.
  • Levels: a compound drawable that selects one of a set of drawables based on its level.
  • Scale: a compound drawable with a single child drawable, whose overall size is modified based on the current level.

At a minimum, custom drawable classes must implement the abstract methods on Drawable and should override the draw(Canvas) method to draw content. Significantly, consider overriding the setAlpha(int) to handle alpha correctly.

      Draw in its bounds (set via setBounds) respecting optional effects such as alpha (set via setAlpha).
      Parameters:
      canvas - The canvas to draw into
    • setBounds

      public void setBounds(int left, int top, int right, int bottom)
      Specify a bounding rectangle for the Drawable. This is where the drawable will draw when its draw() method is called.
    • setBounds

      public void setBounds(@NonNull Rect bounds)
      Specify a bounding rectangle for the Drawable. This is where the drawable will draw when its draw() method is called.
    • copyBounds

      public final void copyBounds(@NonNull Rect bounds)
      Return a copy of the drawable's bounds in the specified Rect (allocated by the caller). The bounds specify where this will draw when its draw() method is called.
      Parameters:
      bounds - Rect to receive the drawable's bounds (allocated by the caller).
    • copyBounds

      @NonNull public final Rect copyBounds()
      Return a copy of the drawable's bounds in a new Rect. This returns the same values as getBounds(), but the returned object is guaranteed to not be changed later by the drawable (i.e. it retains no reference to this rect). If the caller already has a Rect allocated, call copyBounds(rect).
      Returns:
      A copy of the drawable's bounds
    • getBounds

      @NonNull public final @UnmodifiableView Rect getBounds()
      Return the drawable's bounds Rect. Note: for efficiency, the returned object may be the same object stored in the drawable (though this is not guaranteed), so if a persistent copy of the bounds is needed, call copyBounds(rect) instead. You should also not change the object returned by this method as it may be the same object stored in the drawable.
      Returns:
      The bounds of the drawable (which may change later, so caller beware). DO NOT ALTER the returned object as it may change the stored bounds of this drawable.

The default return value is 255 if the class does not override this method to return a value specific to its use of alpha.
    • setTint

      public void setTint(@ColorInt int tintColor)
      Specifies tint color for this drawable.

      A Drawable's drawing content will be blended together with its tint before it is drawn to the screen.

      To clear the tint, pass null to setTintList(ColorStateList).

      Note: Setting a color filter via setColorFilter(ColorFilter) overrides tint.

      Parameters:
      tintColor - Color to use for tinting this drawable
      See Also:
    • setTintList

      public void setTintList(@Nullable ColorStateList tint)
      Specifies tint color for this drawable as a color state list.

      A Drawable's drawing content will be blended together with its tint before it is drawn to the screen.

      tint - Color state list to use for tinting this drawable, or null to clear the tint
      See Also:
    • setTintBlendMode

      public void setTintBlendMode(@NonNull BlendMode blendMode)
      Specifies a tint blending mode for this drawable.

      Defines how this drawable's tint color should be blended into the drawable before it is drawn to screen. Default tint mode is BlendMode.SRC_IN.

      Note: Setting a color filter via setColorFilter(ColorFilter)

      Parameters:
      blendMode - BlendMode to apply to the drawable, a value of null sets the default blend mode value of BlendMode.SRC_IN
      See Also:
    • setColorFilter

      public void setColorFilter(@Nullable ColorFilter colorFilter)
      Specify an optional color filter for the drawable.

      If a Drawable has a ColorFilter, each output pixel of the Drawable's drawing contents will be modified by the color filter before it is blended onto the render target of a Canvas.

      Pass null to remove any existing color filter.

      Note: Setting a non-null color filter disables tint.

      Parameters:
      colorFilter - The color filter to apply, or null to remove the existing color filter

      See Also:
    • isStateful

      public boolean isStateful()
      Indicates whether this drawable will change its appearance based on state. Clients can use this to determine whether it is necessary to calculate their state and call setState.
      Returns:
      True if this drawable changes its appearance based on state, false otherwise.
      See Also:
    • hasFocusStateSpecified

      public boolean hasFocusStateSpecified()
      Indicates whether this drawable has at least one state spec explicitly specifying state_focused.

      Note: A View uses a Drawable instance as its background and it changes its appearance based on a state. On keyboard devices, it should specify its state_focused to make sure the user knows which view is holding the focus.

      Returns:
      true if state_focused is specified for this drawable.
    • setState

      public boolean setState(@NonNull int[] stateSet)
      Specify a set of states for the drawable. These are use-case specific, so see the relevant documentation. As an example, the background for widgets like Button understand the following states: [state_focused, state_pressed].

      If the new state you are supplying causes the appearance of the Drawable to change, then it is responsible for calling invalidateSelf() in order to have itself redrawn, and true will be returned from this function.

      Note: The Drawable holds a reference on to stateSet until a new state array is given to it, so you must not modify this array during that time.

      Parameters:
      stateSet - The new set of states to be displayed.
      Returns:
      Returns true if this change in state has caused the appearance of the Drawable to change (hence requiring an invalidate), otherwise returns false.
    • getState

      @NonNull public int[] getState()
      Describes the current state, as a union of primitive states, such as R.attr.state_focused, R.attr.state_selected, etc. Some drawables may modify their imagery based on the selected state.
      Returns:
      An array of resource Ids describing the current state.
    • jumpToCurrentState

      public void jumpToCurrentState()
      If this Drawable does transition animations between states, ask that it immediately jump to the current state and skip any active animations.
    • getCurrent

      @Nullable public Drawable getCurrent()
      Returns:
      The current drawable that will be used by this drawable. For simple drawables, this is just the drawable itself. For drawables that change state like StateListDrawable and LevelListDrawable this will be the child drawable currently in use.
    • setLevel

      public final boolean setLevel(@IntRange(from=0L,to=10000L) int level)
      Specify the level for the drawable. This allows a drawable to vary its imagery based on a continuous controller, for example to show progress or volume level.

      If the new level you are supplying causes the appearance of the Drawable to change, then it is responsible for calling invalidateSelf() in order to have itself redrawn, and true will be returned from this function.

      Parameters:
      level - The new level, from 0 (minimum) to 10000 (maximum).
      Returns:
      Returns true if this change in level has caused the appearance of the Drawable to change (hence requiring an invalidate), otherwise returns false.
      See Also:
    • getLevel

      @IntRange(from=0L, to=10000L) public final int getLevel()
      Retrieve the current level.
      Returns:

      See Also:
    • setVisible

      public boolean setVisible(boolean visible, boolean restart)
      Set whether this Drawable is visible. This generally does not impact the Drawable's behavior, but is a hint that can be used by some Drawables, for example, to decide whether run animations.
      Parameters:
      visible - Set to true if visible, false if not.
      restart - You can supply true here to force the drawable to behave as if it has just become visible, even if it had last been set visible. Used for example to force animations to restart.
      Returns:
      true if the new visibility is different from its previous state.
    • isVisible

      public final boolean isVisible()
    • setAutoMirrored

      public void setAutoMirrored(boolean mirrored)
      Set whether this Drawable is automatically mirrored when its layout direction is RTL (right-to left). See LayoutDirection.
      Parameters:
      mirrored - Set to true if the Drawable should be mirrored, false if not.

    • onStateChange

      protected boolean onStateChange(@NonNull int[] state)
      Override this in your subclass to change appearance if you recognize the specified state.
      Returns:
      Returns true if the state change has caused the appearance of the Drawable to change (that is, it needs to be drawn), else false if it looks the same and there is no need to redraw it since its last state.
    • onLevelChange

      protected boolean onLevelChange(int level)
      Override this in your subclass to change appearance if you vary based on level.
      Returns:
      Returns true if the level change has caused the appearance of the Drawable to change (that is, it needs to be drawn), else false if it looks the same and there is no need to redraw it since its last level.
    • onBoundsChange

      protected void onBoundsChange(@NonNull Rect bounds)
      Override this in your subclass to change appearance if you vary based on the bounds.
    • getIntrinsicWidth

      public int getIntrinsicWidth()
      Returns the drawable's intrinsic width.

      Intrinsic width is the width at which the drawable would like to be laid out, including any inherent padding. If the drawable has no intrinsic width, such as a solid color, this method returns -1.

      Returns:
      the intrinsic width, or -1 if no intrinsic width
    • getIntrinsicHeight

      public int getIntrinsicHeight()
      Returns the drawable's intrinsic height.

      Intrinsic height is the height at which the drawable would like to be laid out, including any inherent padding. If the drawable has no intrinsic height, such as a solid color, this method returns -1.

      Returns:
      the intrinsic height, or -1 if no intrinsic height
    • getMinimumWidth

      public int getMinimumWidth()
      Returns the minimum width suggested by this Drawable. If a View uses this Drawable as a background, it is suggested that the View use at least this value for its width. (There will be some scenarios where this will not be possible.) This value should INCLUDE any padding.
      Returns:
      The minimum width suggested by this Drawable. If this Drawable doesn't have a suggested minimum width, 0 is returned.
    • getMinimumHeight

      public int getMinimumHeight()
      Returns the minimum height suggested by this Drawable. If a View uses this Drawable as a background, it is suggested that the View use at least this value for its height. (There will be some scenarios where this will not be possible.) This value should INCLUDE any padding.
      Returns:
      The minimum height suggested by this Drawable. If this Drawable doesn't have a suggested minimum height, 0 is returned.
    • getPadding

      public boolean getPadding(@NonNull Rect padding)
      Return in padding the insets suggested by this Drawable for placing content inside the drawable's bounds. Positive values move toward the center of the Drawable (set Rect.inset(int, int)).
      Returns:
      true if this drawable actually has a padding, else false. When false is returned, the padding is always set to 0.
    • mutate

      @NonNull public Drawable mutate()
      Make this drawable mutable. This operation cannot be reversed. A mutable drawable is guaranteed to not share its state with any other drawable. This is especially useful when you need to modify properties of drawables loaded from resources. By default, all drawables instances loaded from the same resource share a common state; if you modify the state of one instance, all the other instances will receive the same modification.

      Calling this method on a mutable Drawable will have no effect.

      Returns:
      This drawable.
      See Also:
    • clearMutated

      @Internal public void clearMutated()
      Clears the mutated state, allowing this drawable to be cached and mutated again.
    • getConstantState

      @Nullable public Drawable.ConstantState getConstantState()
      Return a Drawable.ConstantState instance that holds the shared state of this Drawable.
      Returns:
      The ConstantState associated to that Drawable.
      See Also:
    • scaleFromDensity

      @Internal public static float scaleFromDensity(float pixels, int sourceDensity, int targetDensity)
      Scales a floating-point pixel value from the source density to the target density.
      Parameters:
      pixels - the pixel value for use in source density
      sourceDensity - the source density
      targetDensity - the target density
      Returns:
      the scaled pixel value for use in target density
    • scaleFromDensity

      @Internal public static int scaleFromDensity(int pixels, int sourceDensity, int targetDensity, boolean isSize)
      Scales a pixel value from the source density to the target density, optionally handling the resulting pixel value as a size rather than an offset.

      A size conversion involves rounding the base value and ensuring that a non-zero base value is at least one pixel in size.

      An offset conversion involves simply truncating the base value to an integer.

      Parameters:
      pixels - the pixel value for use in source density
      sourceDensity - the source density
      targetDensity - the target density
      isSize - true to handle the resulting scaled value as a size, or false to handle it as an offset
      Returns:
      the scaled pixel value for use in target density
