LabelView

Sometimes, we need to show a label above an ImageView or any other views. Well, LabelView will be able to help you. It's easy to implement as well!

Import your project

####Gradle

dependencies {
    compile 'com.lid.labelview:lib:0.1.1'
}

If it doesn't work, please send me a email lid.guan@gmail.com or create an issue.

####Or

Copy LabelView.java into your project.

Create a Label

LabelView extends from TextView so you can treat it as a TextView and use any of its method.

Usage:

LabelView label = new LabelView(this);
label.setText("POP");
label.setBackgroundColor(0xff03a9f4);
label.setTargetView(findViewById(R.id.text), 10, LabelView.Gravity.LEFT_TOP);

setTargetView parameters

setTargetView(findViewById(R.id.text), 10, LabelView.Gravity.LEFT_TOP)

The second parameter states the distance between the edge of the bottom view and LabelView (unit dip)

The third parameter states the side of where LabelView should appear on the bottom view. (only LEFT_TOP and RIGHT_TOP)

remove label

you can use remove method. eg:

label.remove();

LabelView in BaseAdpter

If you using LabelView in BaseAdpter and reuse of convertView, you have to generate label ID manual. eg:

public View getItemView(int position, View convertView, ViewHolder holder) {

	......
	
    // you have to generate label ID manual
    LabelView label = holder.getView(12345);
    if (label == null) {
        label = new LabelView(this);
        label.setId(12345);
        label.setBackgroundColor(0xffE91E63);
        label.setTargetViewInBaseAdapter(imageView, 138, 10, LabelView.Gravity.LEFT_TOP);
    }
    label.setText(your data);
    return convertView;
}

setTargetViewInBaseAdapter parameters

The second parameter means targetView width (unit dip).
