Answer 1

When a 32-bit hex value is specified, the two characters corresponding to the colors specify the 8-bit alpha transparency value. This value varies between 00 (completely transparent) and FF (completely opaque).

Hexadecimal colors when used directly through an int, must be AARRGGBB. Its hexadecimal color does not specify alpha, then it is being automatically set to 00.

To set a color to 100% opacity, add FF at the start.

Your code should look like this:

FrameLayout parentLayout = findViewById(R.id.tile_container);

FrameLayout framelayout = new FrameLayout(this);
framelayout.setBackgroundColor(0xFF0000FF);
framelayout.setLayoutParams(new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(100,100);
framelayout.SetX(50)
framelayout.SetY(50)

parentLayout.addView(framelayout);

Alternatively you can use Color.BLUE I hope this helps. ^-^
