First things first

The example application is available at the play store:

Get it on Google Play

General idea

The idea of this android library is to give the possibility to display two texts inside the imageitself. These texts could be the title or the description of the image or something else. Also there should be various settings to customise these texts and everything else.

Examples

Here are some examples of how these DriveImageView's could look like:

Check the wiki for more information about how to use and how to contribute.

Usage

Gradle

This library works with gradle and will soon be available on the central maven repository. For the moment its on jCenter at Bintray. Just add the following repository to your root build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven { url "https://jcenter.bintray.com" }
    }
}

Then in your app build.gradle:

dependencies {
    // other repos ...
    compile 'ch.halcyon:driveimageview:1.0.0'
}

Code

After adding the gradle depedency from above you can go to your xml layout and add the following code for a squareprogressbar:

<ch.haclyon.driveimageview.DriveImageView
  android:id="@+id/driveImageView"
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />

To set some basic settings use the following java-code:

DriveImageView driveImageView = (DriveImageView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.driveImageView);
driveImageView.setDriveImageModel(new DriveImageModel("main text", "small text", R.drawable.image));
driveImageView.setAlphaValue(0.7f);
