In this android programming source code example, we are going to change the border color of a Chip in Android.
Example of chip border color in kotli
MainActivity.kt
package com.jigopost.boardercolor
import android.content.Context
import android.content.res.ColorStateList
import android.graphics.Color
import android.os.Bundle
import android.util.TypedValue
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.activity_main.*
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
// set chip border color programmatically
chipYellow.chipStrokeColor = ColorStateList.valueOf(
Color.parseColor("#E30022")
)
// set chip border width in pixels programmatically
chipYellow.chipStrokeWidth = 3.dpToPixels(this)
}
}
// extension function to convert dp to equivalent pixels
fun Int.dpToPixels(context: Context):Float = TypedValue.applyDimension(
TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, this.toFloat(), context.resources.displayMetrics
)
