How to Blur A View
This can be achieved in following steps
- Extract the background image of
LinearLayout
by cropping
background Image. Now extend LinearLayout Class.
Override OnDraw(Canvas mCanvas) method.
Create two methods in your Custom
LinearLayout
Class 1.DrawBitmap
2.DrawColor
.First call the DrawBitmap function by giving the offset you got from
ViewPager to background image so that image moves when the use swipe
the screen.- Finally draw the color with your transparency level
I hope this will solve your problem.
Sample Code for this

How to set the blur level of a view background
Android doesn't provide this functionality for UI elements as iOS does. It's not part of the UI rendering engine and to obtain these kind of effects you need to use third-party libraries which will essentially take a snapshot of the drawing cache, reduce its size for a faster processing and then put the generated bitmap into a view.
Here are some example libraries:
- BlurrView
- Blurry
Please bear in mind that this will have a serious performance hit on mid-low end phones.
Dim and Blur Background Behind Fragment Android
As stated in the comment the FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND
was not working with the frame layout I was using.
I instead decided to just change the foreground of the parent
// Dim the background
// Where mainFrameLayout is as FrameLayout
mainFrameLayout.getForeground().setAlpha(220);
And when you would like to remove the "dim" effect
// Remove dim background color
mainFrameLayout.getForeground().setAlpha(0);
