Converting GradientDrawable to Bitmap


Sorry if I sound too noob. Is there any way to convert a GradientDrawable like

GradientDrawable gd = new GradientDrawable(GradientDrawable.Orientation orientation, int[] colors);
into a Bitmap format. I am trying to set the GradientDrawable as the device wallpaper.

Thank you soo much. :)


Solution

  • Try this:

    It's not a perfect solution as i've had to hard code the width/height for the GradientDrawable but it seems to work ok regardless.

    public static Bitmap drawableToBitmap(Context mContext, int drawableInt) {
        Bitmap bitmap;
    
        Drawable drawable = getDrawable(mContext, drawableInt);
    
        if (drawable instanceof BitmapDrawable) {
            BitmapDrawable bitmapDrawable = (BitmapDrawable) drawable;
            if(bitmapDrawable.getBitmap() != null) {
                return bitmapDrawable.getBitmap();
            }
        }else if(drawable instanceof GradientDrawable){
            GradientDrawable gradientDrawable = (GradientDrawable) drawable;
    
            bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(140, 140, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
            Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
            gradientDrawable.setBounds(0, 0, canvas.getWidth(), canvas.getHeight());
            gradientDrawable.draw(canvas);
            return bitmap;
        }
    
        if(drawable.getIntrinsicWidth() <= 0 || drawable.getIntrinsicHeight() <= 0) {
            bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(1, 1, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888); // Single color bitmap will be created of 1x1 pixel
        } else {
            bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(drawable.getIntrinsicWidth(), drawable.getIntrinsicHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
        }
    
        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
        drawable.setBounds(0, 0, canvas.getWidth(), canvas.getHeight());
        drawable.draw(canvas);
        return bitmap;
    }
