Add shadow to tooltip

[Kashif Anwaar]

Hi,
How can i show the tooltip with shadow?
Because tooltip with same color as background is not visible.

Here's my scenario:
My tooltip is of white color, and background of activity is dynamic, so sometimes background is white color, at this time the tooltip is not visible without any border or shadow.

Take a look at the Custom Layout Sample:

Code:

android-simple-tooltip/sample/src/main/java/io/github/douglasjunior/androidSimpleTooltip/sample/MainActivity.java

Lines 166 to 178 in cd70d91

 final SimpleTooltip tooltip = new SimpleTooltip.Builder(this) 
         .anchorView(v) 
         .text(R.string.btn_modal_custom) 
         .gravity(Gravity.TOP) 
         .dismissOnOutsideTouch(false) 
         .dismissOnInsideTouch(false) 
         .modal(true) 
         .animated(true) 
         .animationDuration(2000) 
         .animationPadding(SimpleTooltipUtils.pxFromDp(50)) 
         .contentView(R.layout.tooltip_custom, R.id.tv_text) 
         .focusable(true) 
         .build(); 

Layout:

android-simple-tooltip/sample/src/main/res/layout/tooltip_custom.xml

Lines 2 to 7 in cd70d91

 <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
     xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" 
     android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
     android:background="@drawable/bg_tooltip" 
     android:orientation="vertical"> 

Background:

android-simple-tooltip/sample/src/main/res/drawable/bg_tooltip.xml

Lines 1 to 5 in cd70d91

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
 <shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> 
     <corners android:radius="5dp" /> 
     <solid android:color="@color/colorAccent" /> 
 </shape> 

And then, try something like this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/15333015/2826279

the shadow even is added to the arrow? otherwise , a shadow will be added at the top to the arrow since the arrow does not belong to the layout (tooltip_custom.xml)
