How to Customize a Progress Bar In Android
Customizing a ProgressBar
requires defining the attribute or properties for the background and progress of your progress bar.
Create an XML file named customprogressbar.xml
in your res->drawable
folder:
custom_progressbar.xml
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- Define the background properties like color etc -->
<item android:id="@android:id/background">
<shape>
<gradient
android:startColor="#000001"
android:centerColor="#0b131e"
android:centerY="1.0"
android:endColor="#0d1522"
android:angle="270"
/>
</shape>
</item>
<!-- Define the progress properties like start color, end color etc -->
<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
<clip>
<shape>
<gradient
android:startColor="#007A00"
android:centerColor="#007A00"
android:centerY="1.0"
android:endColor="#06101d"
android:angle="270"
/>
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
</layer-list>
Now you need to set the progressDrawable
property in customprogressbar.xml
(drawable)
You can do this in the XML file or in the Activity (at run time).
Do the following in your XML:
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
android:progressDrawable="@drawable/custom_progressbar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
At run time do the following
// Get the Drawable custom_progressbar
Drawable draw=res.getDrawable(R.drawable.custom_progressbar);
// set the drawable as progress drawable
progressBar.setProgressDrawable(draw);
Edit: corrected xml layout
Custom progressbar how to
You can use something like this with ConstraintLayout
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<Button
android:id="@+id/button3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:background="#A496D8"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHeight_percent="0.1"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.5"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/button2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:padding="0dp"
android:background="#000000"
android:elevation="6dp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="@+id/button3"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="@+id/button3"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="@+id/button3" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:elevation="6dp"
android:text="Some text"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:textColor="#000000"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="@+id/button3"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.0"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="@+id/button3"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="@+id/button3"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.0" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
It will look like this:
But to be honest, I think you better use some library that already handling a lot of logic for you. for example:
NumberProgressBar
ProgressView
Android-RoundCornerProgressBar
Another easy option that you have is to use a horizontal progress bar (How to create a horizontal loading progress bar?) and just put some text on it.
Custom Progress bar in android with Background
Here i found my answer
Firstly you need add xml drawable resource with the name of progress_bar_background.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle"
>
<corners android:radius="18dp" />
<stroke android:color="@color/transparent" android:width="6dp" />
</shape>
Now make an other xml resource file with the name of curved_progress_bar.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@android:id/background">
<shape>
<corners android:radius="18dp" />
<solid android:color="@color/transparent" />
<!-- <stroke android:color="@color/transparent" android:width="6dp" />-->
</shape>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
<clip>
<shape>
<corners android:radius="18dp" />
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
</layer-list>
and Finally in Splash activity xml file paste this code for Progress bar
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:textColor="@color/white"
android:textSize="22dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:fontFamily="@font/symbioarltmedium"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="80%"/>
<ProgressBar
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_below="@+id/textView"
android:id="@+id/progressBar"
style="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ProgressBar.Horizontal"
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:indeterminate="false"
android:max="100"
android:padding="5dp"
android:progress="1"
android:background="@drawable/progress_bar_background"
android:progressDrawable="@drawable/curved_progress_bar"
/>
and here in Java
private ProgressBar progressBar;
TextView textView;
private int progressStatus = 0;
private Handler handler = new Handler();
progressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
// Start long running operation in a background thread
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
while (progressStatus < 100) {
progressStatus += 1;
// Update the progress bar and display the
//current value in the text view
handler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
progressBar.setProgress(progressStatus);
textView.setText(progressStatus+"%");
}
});
try {
// Sleep for 200 milliseconds.
Thread.sleep(25);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
Intent intent = new Intent(SplashActivity.this, HomeActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
}).start();
and use this color
<color name="transparent">#27EEECEC</color>
How to create a custom ProgressBar with drawables, without programming?
Create progress.xml file in drawable folder:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:fromDegrees="0"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%"
android:toDegrees="360">
<shape
android:innerRadiusRatio="3"
android:shape="ring"
android:thicknessRatio="8"
android:useLevel="false">
<size
android:width="76dip"
android:height="76dip" />
<gradient
android:angle="0"
android:endColor="#1672B6"
android:startColor="@android:color/transparent"
android:type="sweep"
android:useLevel="false" />
</shape>
</rotate>
Then use it like this:
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/pbarLoading"
android:layout_width="36dp"
android:layout_height="36dp"
android:indeterminateDrawable="@drawable/progress"/>
How to Create Custom ProgressBar
This changed the color of the progressbar.
progressBar.getProgressDrawable().setColorFilter(
Color.RED, android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN);
Custom ProgressBar
try this custom Drawable:
class ProgressDrawable extends Drawable {
private static final int NUM_RECTS = 10;
Paint mPaint = new Paint();
@Override
protected boolean onLevelChange(int level) {
invalidateSelf();
return true;
}
@Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
int level = getLevel();
Rect b = getBounds();
float width = b.width();
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_RECTS; i++) {
float left = width * i / NUM_RECTS;
float right = left + 0.9f * width / NUM_RECTS;
mPaint.setColor((i + 1) * 10000 / NUM_RECTS <= level? 0xff888888 : 0xffbbbbbb);
canvas.drawRect(left, b.top, right, b.bottom, mPaint);
}
}
@Override
public void setAlpha(int alpha) {
}
@Override
public void setColorFilter(ColorFilter cf) {
}
@Override
public int getOpacity() {
return PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT;
}
}
and test it with the following in onCreate:
LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(this);
ll.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
final ProgressBar pb = new ProgressBar(this, null, android.R.attr.progressBarStyleHorizontal);
Drawable d = new ProgressDrawable();
pb.setProgressDrawable(d);
pb.setPadding(20, 20, 20, 0);
ll.addView(pb);
OnSeekBarChangeListener l = new OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
}
@Override
public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
}
@Override
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser) {
int newProgress = pb.getMax() * progress / seekBar.getMax();
Log.d(TAG, "onProgressChanged " + newProgress);
pb.setProgress(newProgress);
}
};
int[] maxs = {4, 10, 60, 110};
for (int i = 0; i < maxs.length; i++) {
SeekBar sb = new SeekBar(this);
sb.setMax(maxs[i]);
sb.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(l);
sb.setPadding(20, 20, 20, 0);
ll.addView(sb);
}
setContentView(ll);
How to create Custom Horizontal progress bar
You do not need a custom progress bar. Use style="@android:style/Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal"
in your layout xml file. You will also need to use ProgressBar.incrementProgressBy(int progress);
