Android Question Panel Elevation

[stevenindon]

Hello all,

I have been trying to make the intensity of Panel.elevation darker. I have been playing with the value :

Panel.elevation=10dip / 20dip etc.. but seems that the value is set for Higher / lower elevation... but not intensity of the shadow.

Any other way of achieving this? Android java code maybe?

Try this:

[B4X] [XUI] Elevation shadow

What's the best (cross-platform) way to add elevation/shadows on XUI views?

Thank you Blueforcer for your lightning response. After evaluating the link above, in B4A... the native code is still a normal elevating :


#Else If B4A
Offset = Offset * 2
View.As(JavaObject).RunMethod("setElevation", Array(Offset.As(Float)))

It is basically the same as Button.Elevation=4dip

The shadow darkness still cannot be controlled.. (*Needs a darker shadow)

Sorry all, I found the actual problem that makes the .elevate shadow gone missing is that :

If you have a elevated panel (Already with shadow)... and inside the panel, you have a image view (With an image), eventually this setup makes your panel elevated shadow gone missing. If i hide the image view, The shadow of the panel appears. (Panel width and height = Imageview width and height)

This is a little weird... Anyone? Need to solve this..
