Is there a way to set default android attrs to the custom view, that would be available when defining this view in xml
?. For example, I need to create CustomImageView
that will be FrameLayout
with ImageView
and ProgressBar
inside it. If I add such view in xml I want to set background or src of that view, for example. FrameLayout
has no android:src
attribute and it doesn't offer via Android Studio autocomplete window, can I make somehow Android Studio to know that this layout can process such attributes?
The trick is to put android:src
in custom styleables, located at values/attrs.xml
:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<declare-styleable name="MyView">
<attr name="android:src"/>
</declare-styleable>
</resources>
And having MyView
class that is a descendant of a View
, then in xml
file we'd see this:
