Overview

##[DEPRECATED]

BlurBehind Build Status

Easily have blurred and transparent background effect on your Android views.

Before API level 14 there was a Window flag called FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND. It was used for "blurring everything behind a window" and is no longer supported by Android.

BlurBehind provides an easy way to have that effect, with customization, for your window without API level restrictions.

Usage

Invoke BlurBehind.getInstance().execute() method with caller Activity and the actual work as a Runnable.

dummyButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
	@Override
	public void onClick(View v) {

		BlurBehind.getInstance().execute(MainActivity.this, new OnBlurCompleteListener() {
            @Override
            public void onBlurComplete() {
                Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, BlurredActivity.class);
                intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION);

                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
	}
});

And use BlurBehind.getInstance().setBackground(Activity a) method on new View, which is an Activity in sample project:

BlurBehind.getInstance().setBackground(this);

You can optionally set alpha and filterColor:

BlurBehind.getInstance()
    .withAlpha(80)
    .withFilterColor(Color.parseColor("#0075c0")) //or Color.RED
    .setBackground(this);

Which will result in this:

Dependency

  • Run gradle install on blur-behind library project.
  • In your build.gradle:
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal() //Add local m2 repository of yours
}
dependencies {
    compile 'com.faradaj:blur-behind:[LATEST_RELEASE_VERSION]'
}

or

  • In your pom.xml:
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.faradaj</groupId>
  <artifactId>blur-behind</artifactId>
  <version>[LATEST_RELEASE_VERSION]</version>
</dependency>

or you can clone and add blur-behind as a library project to yours.

  • Use RenderScript compat library

    Use RenderScript compat library

    Why not to use RenderScript compatibility library instead of an algorithm for API's lower than 16 and the regular RenderScript for 16 and up? It's not only more performant for older devices but also reduces the complexity of the Blur class since you don't have to have different blur methods for different API's.

    Enable the RenderScript compat by adding the below to gradle.build file

    defaultConfig {
    renderscriptTargetApi 19
    renderscriptSupportMode true
}

    Running an intent from a notification

    If I have a main activity called A and I put .execute code inside it to go to another activity B where blurring happens, how can I have the same blurred background if I create activity B from a notification?
