Im trying to set the backgroundcolor of my FrameLayout
using my own colors.
I created a .xml
file which contains my own colors.
Here it is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<color name="red">#FF0000</color>
<color name="orange">#FF7D00</color>
<color name="yellow">#FFFF00</color>
<color name="green">#00FF00</color>
<color name="blue">#00B4FF</color>
<color name="black">#000000</color>
</resources>
And here is the code where Im trying to set the backgroundcolor, but when I run the app, the FrameLayout
is always grey, why?:
FrameLayout MyFrameLayout = new FrameLayout(this);
LayoutParams MyFrameLayoutParam = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 200);
MyFrameLayout.setLayoutParams(MyFrameLayoutParam);
MyFrameLayout.setBackgroundColor(R.color.red);
Parent.addView(MyFrameLayout);
On the “Wallpaper & style” page, select “Wallpaper colors” and choose one of the color combinations shown. You can also tap on “Basic colors” if you want something, well, basic.
FrameLayout MyFrameLayout = new FrameLayout(this); LayoutParams MyFrameLayoutParam = new LayoutParams(LayoutParams. FILL_PARENT, 200); MyFrameLayout. setLayoutParams(MyFrameLayoutParam); MyFrameLayout. setBackgroundColor(R.
You need to retrieve the color from resources before setting it. You are assigning the R.java id not the actual value.
Color red = getApplicationContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.red)
MyFrameLayout.setBackgroundColor(red);
