I have defined XML for gradient.

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<gradient 
    android:startColor="#9acd32"
    android:endColor="#ffffff"
    android:angle="180"
    />

i want to use gradient in following code.

XYRegionFormatter regionFormatter3 = new XYRegionFormatter(Color.BLUE);

instead of Color.BLUE

How to use it?

• android

try this...

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <gradient android:type="radial" android:gradientRadius="250"
        android:startColor="#E9E9E9" android:endColor="#D4D4D4" />
</shape>

Try this:

XYRegionFormatter regionFormatter3 = new XYRegionFormatter(getResources().getColor(R.color.<xml_file_name>));

Edit:
I realized it needs a Color attribute, while this line tries to cross reference it to a drawable, which is wrong. The gradient actually forms a drawable, while the XYRegionFormatter needs a Color attribute. Therefore, the gradient drawable cannot be used in this case. There are no other possibilities available in the code to use gradient as color attribute, afaik.
Also, since the XYRegionFormatter does not define any ways to use a Drawable(), or even Paint() for that matter, it presently does not seem possible to use a gradient for the scenario you are looking at.

You should do some thing like this .

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient 
android:startColor="#9acd32"
android:endColor="#ffffff"
android:angle="180"
/>
</shape>

this xml will be in your res/drawable with name like shape.xml

Now in you code you can pass this like below code.

  XYRegionFormatter regionFormatter3 = new XYRegionFormatter(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.shape));
