Is there any way in Android to draw a filled rectangle with say a black border. My problem is that the canvas.draw() takes one paint object, and to my knowledge the paint object can't have a different color for the fill and the stroke. Is there a way around this?
Try paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL) and paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE).
Paint paint = new Paint();
Rect r = new Rect(10, 10, 200, 100);
@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
// fill
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL);
paint.setColor(Color.MAGENTA);
canvas.drawRect(r, paint);
// border
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
paint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
canvas.drawRect(r, paint);
}
