I was working on some sample Android App where i tried adding a small utility i.e adding a custom border to text within app with a custom color. Some times we get requirement's in apps where we need to implement such text's in views. So here's a small and useful code snippet to implement something like this (for Android Devs).
Override onDraw method for custom Textview
@Override public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { int textColor = getTextColors().getDefaultColor(); setTextColor(Color.BLACK); getPaint().setStrokeWidth(10); getPaint().setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE); super.onDraw(canvas); setTextColor(textColor); getPaint().setStrokeWidth(0); getPaint().setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL); super.onDraw(canvas); }
Cheers!!
