I am implementing a custom loading screen with a ProgressBar
and TextView
to show the user that I am loading the data on the activity. Currently, the layout comprising of ProgressBar
and TextView
shows a greyish background, and I want to remove it. I just want to show the loading text and progress bar without any background. How can I achieve that?
Layout file
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
>
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBarloading"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
/>
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView7"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Loading..."
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.498"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/progressBarloading"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.074"
android:textSize="18sp"
/>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
Currently it looks like this, how can I remove the greyish background?
Hi if you want to make transparent Dialog you must change the background to transparent in your layout and also in your dialog you need to use dialog.getWindow().getDecorView().setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
and this is my code
Layout.xml :
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@android:color/transparent"
>
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBarloading"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView7"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Loading..."
android:textSize="18sp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.498"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@+id/progressBarloading"
app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.074" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
and this the code in the dialog :
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
View view = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.dialog, null, false);
builder.setView(view);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
dialog.show();
dialog.getWindow().getDecorView().setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
