'How remove black background around the circular image view in android

I have created circular image view with the CircularImageView library

and I am facing issues with black background around the circular image in my layout, I tried to resolve this issue but I am failed to fix this issue

Following code is CircularImageView.java file

        mShaderMatrix.setScale(scale, scale);

        mBitmapShader.setLocalMatrix(mShaderMatrix);
    }

}

And My layout is

<com.example.util.CircleImageView
                xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
                app:border_color="@color/white"
                app:border_width="2dp" 
                android:id="@+id/chooseanavatar"
                android:layout_width="45dp"
                android:layout_height="45dp"
                android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
                android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
                android:layout_centerVertical="true"

                 />

I think I found a solution in lollipop.

myView = LinearLayout(parent layout for the circleview not the circleview itself)
myView.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null);

This disable hardware acceleration.

You can use this to circleimageview's parent view, profile_img_container.

Don't use this to circleimageview directly. It willl show you black outer circle.

<LinearLayout
  android:id="@+id/profile_img_container"
  android:orientation="horizontal"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="match_parent"
  android:gravity="center"
  android:paddingTop="20dp"
  android:paddingBottom="20dp"
  android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
  app:layout_collapseMode="parallax">

          <de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
             xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
             android:id="@+id/profile_image"
             android:layout_width="96dp"
             android:layout_height="96dp"
             android:src="@drawable/profile002"
             android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
             app:civ_border_width="1dp"
             app:civ_border_color="#44000000"
             android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
             app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"/>

</LinearLayout>

circle_imageview.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_HARDWARE, null);

its working on me. check this link

Came through the same problem with a similar view on 7.0. Solved by drawing a white canvas before drawing anything else.

@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
      canvas.drawARGB(255, 255, 255, 255);
      ...
}

This workaround has the same visual result as setting a white background directly in the XML, but will not work well if this view is child of a non-flat view (you will see a a white square).

Are you using lollipop currently because that problem only appears on lollipop devices,it works fine in pre-lollipop.

Try it with pre-lollipop and if you are using lollipop add this line:

paintBorder.setAlpha(254);

Try changing the background of RelativeLayout of CircleImageView. See below for reference:

<RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:layout_weight="1"
        android:padding="@dimen/base_padding"
        android:background="@color/light">

        <com.example.util.CircleImageView
            android:layout_width="160dp"
            android:layout_height="160dp"
            android:layout_centerInParent="true"
            android:src="@drawable/hugh"
            app:border_width="2dp"
            app:border_color="@color/dark" />

</RelativeLayout>

Solution 6:[6]

finally got solution ... this problem resolve after enable hardwareAccelerated in android manifest file. Add android:hardwareAccelerated="true" to your manifest

After enable this no black area show behind the image while using shapeable image view.

hope your problem resolved ..
