Questions:
When I define a style, it can be inherited from a parent style, e.g:
<style name="DialogNoTitle" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
Now I want to do the same with drawable resources, something like this:
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" name="ChildDrawable" parent="@drawable/ParentDrawable">
<solid android:color="@android:color/white"/>
<corners android:radius="6dp"/>
</shape>
Is there a way to accomplish this functionality?
How to&Answers:
Short answer – you cannot extend and override drawables. However,
- Some drawables can be created from other drawables. e.g. layer-list will allow you to draw layers of drawables one on top of another. Refer to http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/drawable-resource.html .
- You create Drawable objects in code.
