Pick Color from Image

Picking the Color from the Image in Android in HEX and RGB

In android we use HEX for color code and in ios we use RGB so here we are gonna work on both. You can download the full source code from github PickColorFromImageAndroid.

ImageView picked_imageView;
picked_imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView2);
picked_imageView.setOnTouchListener(this);
picked_imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmapImage);

OnTouch of picked_imageView we can get the color code in onTouch method. When we touch the imageView we will get the color code from the image and here you can format it in HEX and RGB.

@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

    Matrix inverse = new Matrix();    
    picked_imageView.getImageMatrix().invert(inverse);    
    float[] touchPoint = new float[] {event.getX(), event.getY()};    
    inverse.mapPoints(touchPoint);    
    int x = Integer.valueOf((int)touchPoint[0]);    
    int y = Integer.valueOf((int) touchPoint[1]);
    int bitmapHeight=((BitmapDrawable) picked_imageView.getDrawable()).getBitmap()
                                                                       .getHeight();
    if(y>0 && y<bitmapHeight) {

        int pixel = ((BitmapDrawable) picked_imageView.getDrawable()).getBitmap()
                                                                    .getPixel(x, y);
        //then do what you want with the pixel data, e.g        
        int redValue = Color.red(pixel);
        int greenValue = Color.green(pixel);
        int blueValue = Color.blue(pixel);

        String hexColor = String.format("#%06X", (0xFFFFFF & pixel));

    }

    System.gc();
    return false;
}


 Happy Coding!!!

Vertical AutoScrolling TextView in Android

In android by default we can scroll the text in horizontal using marquee in layout, but if we want to scroll the text in vertical its not possible by default. So here we will learn to create a custom TextView which will auto-scroll in vertical direction. Source Code:  VerticalScrollingTextView-Android Create a AutoScrollingTextView.class which extends TextView: @SuppressLint ( "AppCompatCustomView" ) public class AutoScrollingTextView extends TextView { private static final float DEFAULT_SPEED = 65.0f ; public Scroller scroller ; public float speed = DEFAULT_SPEED ; public boolean continuousScrolling = true; public AutoScrollingTextView (Context context) { super (context) ; init( null, 0 ) ; scrollerInstance(context) ; } public AutoScrollingTextView (Context context , AttributeSet attrs) { super (context , attrs) ; init(attrs , 0 ) ; scr...

Flexbox inside the RecyclerView as a LayoutManager (FlexboxLayoutManager).

Currently google has release the Flexbox which can be used for building flexible layouts using FlexboxLayout, it can be interpreted as an advanced LinearLayout because both layouts align their child views sequentially. For more detail on this flexbox-layout But here we are gonna work on Flexbox with RecyclerView. Flexbox with a large number of items in a scrollable container! Let's first see what are the Supported attributes / features comparison Due to some characteristics of the RecyclerView, some Flexbox attributes are not available/not implemented to the FlexboxLayoutManager. Here is a quick overview of the attributes/features comparison between the two containers. Attribute / Feature FlexboxLayout                FlexboxLayoutManager (RecyclerView) flexDirection flexWrap (except wrap_reverse ) justifyContent alignItems alignContent - layout_order - layout_fle...

Android Customized-FloatSeekBar

A SeekBar is an extension of ProgressBar that adds a draggable thumb. The user can touch the thumb and drag left or right to set the current progress level or use the arrow keys. Placing focusable widgets to the left or right of a SeekBar is discouraged. SeekBar support only int values for progress: void setMax(int max) Set the upper range of the progress bar max. void setMin(int min) Set the lower range of the progress bar to min. void setProgress(int progress) Sets the current progress to the specified value. int getMax() Return the upper limit of this progress bar's range. int getMin() Return the lower limit of this progress bar's range. int getProgress() Get the progress bar's current level of progress. In some scenario we would need floating point seekbar progress, which is not supported by default in android. Here the floating seekbar which supports floating point value: You can download the full sample and library from https://github.com/yuvaraj119/Cus...
