Hi Can I define this shape without using xml code

<gradient android:startColor="#34342C" android:endColor="#848486"
    android:angle="90" />

<stroke android:width="1dp" android:color="#FFFFFF" />
</shape>

Thanks for your help

Answer 1

Yes

• use a ShapeDrawable to draw your rectangle with the padding you require
• using a Paint with the appropriate color and stroke width
• using a Linear gradient and adding this to the Paint as a shader
