How to achieve this ?

Solution

  • However, I might not be taking the best approach, but this is how I have created some Switch like UIs in few of my apps. Here is the code -

    <RadioGroup
        android:checkedButton="@+id/offer"
        android:id="@+id/toggle"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="30dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/margin_medium"
        android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="50dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/margin_medium"
        android:background="@drawable/pink_out_line"
        android:orientation="horizontal">

        <RadioButton
            android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
            android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
            android:layout_marginLeft="1dp"
            android:id="@+id/search"
            android:background="@drawable/toggle_widget_background"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:button="@null"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="Search"
            android:textColor="@color/white" />

        <RadioButton
            android:layout_marginRight="1dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
            android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
            android:id="@+id/offer"
            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:background="@drawable/toggle_widget_background"
            android:button="@null"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="Offers"
            android:textColor="@color/white" />
    </RadioGroup>

    pink_out_line.xml

    <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <corners android:radius="2dp" />
    <solid android:color="#80000000" />
    <stroke
        android:width="1dp"
        android:color="@color/pink" />
</shape>

    toggle_widget_background.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:drawable="@color/pink" android:state_checked="true" />
    <item android:drawable="@color/dark_pink" android:state_pressed="true" />
    <item android:drawable="@color/transparent" />
</selector>

    And here is the output -enter image description here
