Solution

  • CircularImageView is a custom view. You can change it's properties as shown below. 

     CircularImageView circularImageView = (CircularImageView)findViewById(R.id.iv_cat_icon);
    // Set Border
    circularImageView.setBorderColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.tabsScrollColor));
    circularImageView.setBorderWidth(10);
