I work on an android application in Xamarin. For buttons background create e a xml. its so simple. the code is:
="1.0"="utf-8"
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape android:shape="oval">
<gradient android:startColor="#ff000000"
android:centerColor="#ffffffff"
android:endColor="#00ffffff"
android:type="radial"
android:gradientRadius="100"
/>
</shape>
</item>
</selector>
when i user linear or sweep in android:type code everything is fine, a good transparent gradient appeare in my device( My device is HTC One M8). but when i user radial a bad solid color appear. no transparency. i want use this technique for the shadow under buttons. but if check the screenshot a very bad harshy solid color appear under the buttons.
is it a bug in the code or in my device or in xamarin deploy setting? i confused whole a day.
Screenshot
thanks for any help

If check the screenshot (third screenshot from left) Big OFF Button, must have a transparent radial gradient, but it has a black solid color.

Hi all, I've imported a project from https://github.com/nikclayton/android-squeezer[^]
but when I try to build it in Android Studio I get androidmanifest.xml file not found any ideas ? as the file is definitely there

But where is "there". If the project was originally built with eclipse it will be in the project's root directory. But Android Studio keeps it in the main activity's source directory (app/src/main).

Sorry Richard the project has a lot of nested components and the manifest file is in the src/main folder of one of the nested folders ( probably best if you had a look at the project as I'm not too well versed with the structure of Android projects ) thanks - I'm trying to use the project as a learning aid for Android

I've written a few apps Richard using Android Studio so am not a complete novice but this app interests me as a learning example because I actually use it and it's very good

Did you create this project from scratch, or import it from Eclipse?
If the latter, have you looked in those projects to see where the AndroidManifest.xml file resides?

Hi Dave, as I said earlier I downloaded the project from github

Just took a look on github and the file is definitely there (Squeezer/src/main). Are you sure it got downloaded correctly?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes

Hi Richard would you mind trying to download and build the project ( obviously if you have the time ) in Android Studio ?

Sorry Pete, I don't have Android Studio, I found that it is extremely slow on my system so I use eclipse.
You may like to go back and check exactly where in the build the error appears, as there are (by the look of the build tree) other pieces that may be actioned.
|
|
|
|
|
Ok Richard thanks, when you say other pieces need to be actioned do you mean downloaded seperately and built ? I ask this because I notice a module / project calles EventBus although it's shown on GitHub as being part of the project it doesn't actually get downloaded in the the zip file.

Yes, I did actually download the zip file yesterday and there seemed to be some other (test) projects in there, so it may be something to do with that. As I said, you need to check exactly where in the build the error occurs.

Thanks Richard - I've actually installed Eclipse now if that helps ?, I naively thought the process would be similar to downloading a Visual Studio solution and building it - why is everything so difficult ? - thanks again

Maybe; eclipse uses a different project structure, so you cannot just build from the existing download. I do know that Android Studio will import eclipse projects and (try to) re-configure them, but I don't know if eclipse can do the same with an Android Studio project. I guess you will have to try it and see.

If it was easy then the IT industry would not need clever sods like us. All apps would be created by the guys in Q&A.

Are you saying the GitHub project is an Eclipse project format ? ( I don't know the difference )

No it's definitely Android Studio. The project tree structures are different, and Android Studio uses something called gradle[^] (WTE?), while eclipse uses ADT to do the actual compile, link, package steps.
|
|
|
|
|
That's part of the problem Richard the build just fails without giving you a line number or file name it just informs you it can't find the manifest in fact it probably doesn't even begin building because of that - a real life catch 22 - I am on the point of giving up on this - have you ever successfully cloned and compiled a git repo for Android ?

Sorry, but I have never used any Github projects. There appears to be a forum for questions there which may be worth a try - see the "issues" link on the right of the page. My only other suggestion is to try an email to Peter Leow[^], who has written some excellent Android articles, and is a fan of Android Studio.
