    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

Add compile 'com.cpiz.bubbleview:bubbleview:{X.Y.Z}' to your module-level build.gradle(see X.Y.Z in Releases)

dependencies {
    ...
    compile 'com.cpiz.bubbleview:bubbleview:{X.Y.Z}'
}

Specify the direction of arrow

You can use app:bb_arrowDirection attribute to specify the direction of arrow. Its value can be: Left, Up, Right, Down or None. Arrow will be placed in the middle of the corresponding edge of bubble.

<com.cpiz.android.bubbleview.BubbleTextView
    android:id="@+id/bb1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/iv1"
    android:padding="6dp"
    android:text="ArrowRight"
    android:textColor="@android:color/white"
    app:bb_arrowDirection="Right"
    app:bb_cornerRadius="4dp"/>

Point arrow to a specific target

You can use app:bb_arrowTo attribute to specify the id of target view. The direction of arrow will be calculated automatically and it will point to the center of target.

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/group2"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="180dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="30dp"
    android:background="#bdc3c7"
    android:padding="10dp">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/iv2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_margin="4dp"
        android:src="@android:drawable/ic_btn_speak_now"
        android:tint="#FFFFFF"/>

    <com.cpiz.android.bubbleview.BubbleTextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignTop="@id/iv2"
        android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/iv2"
        android:padding="6dp"
        android:text="Get your apps ready for Android 6.0 Marshmallow! "
        android:textColor="@android:color/white"
        app:bb_arrowTo="@id/iv2"/>
</RelativeLayout>

Use it as layout container

Beside using BubbleTextView to display text, you can also use

BubbleRelativeLayout
BubbleLinearLayout
BubbleFrameLayout

as bubble layout container and put customized content into it.

Popup

Can use BubblePopupWindow to wrap bubble, and show as popup.

Support touch outside to close
Support touch inside to close
Support close in time

    View rootView = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.simple_text_bubble, null);
    BubbleTextView bubbleView = (BubbleTextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.popup_bubble);
    window = new BubblePopupWindow(rootView, bubbleView);
    window.setCancelOnTouch(true);
    window.setCancelOnTouchOutside(true);
    window.setCancelOnLater(3000);
    window.showArrowTo(v, BubbleStyle.ArrowDirection.Left);

Misc.

Invoke methods like setBackground/setBackgroundColor of BubbleView will make the style settings invalid.
