How to Customize a Progress Bar In Android
in your xml
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
style="@style/CustomProgressBar"
android:layout_margin="5dip" />
And in res/values/styles.xml:
<resources>
<style name="CustomProgressBar" parent="android:Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal">
<item name="android:indeterminateOnly">false</item>
<item name="android:progressDrawable">@drawable/custom_progress_bar_horizontal</item>
<item name="android:minHeight">10dip</item>
<item name="android:maxHeight">20dip</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light" />
</resources>
And custom_progress_bar_horizontal is a xml stored in drawable folder which defines your custom progress bar. For more detail see this blog.
I hope this will help you.
In case of complex ProgressBar like this,
use ClipDrawable.
NOTE : I've not used
ProgressBarhere in this example. I've achieved this using ClipDrawable by clipping image withAnimation.
A Drawable that clips another Drawable based on this Drawable's current level value. You can control how much the child Drawable gets clipped in width and height based on the level, as well as a gravity to control where it is placed in its overall container. Most often used to implement things like progress bars, by increasing the drawable's level with setLevel().
NOTE : The drawable is clipped completely and not visible when the level is 0 and fully revealed when the level is 10,000.
I've used this two images to make this CustomProgressBar.

// a field in your class

doTheDownAnimation(fromLevel, toLevel);
}

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
etPercent = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etPercent);
ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
mImageDrawable = (ClipDrawable) img.getDrawable();
mImageDrawable.setLevel(0);
}
private void doTheUpAnimation(int fromLevel, int toLevel) {
mLevel += LEVEL_DIFF;
mImageDrawable.setLevel(mLevel);
if (mLevel <= toLevel) {
mUpHandler.postDelayed(animateUpImage, DELAY);
} else {
mUpHandler.removeCallbacks(animateUpImage);
MainActivity.this.fromLevel = toLevel;
}
}
private void doTheDownAnimation(int fromLevel, int toLevel) {
mLevel -= LEVEL_DIFF;
mImageDrawable.setLevel(mLevel);
if (mLevel >= toLevel) {
mDownHandler.postDelayed(animateDownImage, DELAY);

mDownHandler.removeCallbacks(animateDownImage);
MainActivity.this.fromLevel = toLevel;

}
public void onClickOk(View v) {
int temp_level = ((Integer.parseInt(etPercent.getText().toString())) * MAX_LEVEL) / 100;
if (toLevel == temp_level || temp_level > MAX_LEVEL) {
return;
}
toLevel = (temp_level <= MAX_LEVEL) ? temp_level : toLevel;
if (toLevel > fromLevel) {
// cancel previous process first
mDownHandler.removeCallbacks(animateDownImage);
MainActivity.this.fromLevel = toLevel;
mUpHandler.post(animateUpImage);

<clip xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:clipOrientation="vertical"

android:gravity="bottom" />
In case of complex HorizontalProgressBar just change cliporientation in clip_source.xml like this,
android:clipOrientation="horizontal"
You can download complete demo from here.
There are two types of progress bars called determinate progress bar (fixed duration) and indeterminate progress bar (unknown duration).
Drawables for both of types of progress bar can be customized by defining drawable as xml resource. You can find more information about progress bar styles and customization at http://www.zoftino.com/android-progressbar-and-custom-progressbar-examples.
Customizing fixed or horizontal progress bar :
Below xml is a drawable resource for horizontal progress bar customization.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@android:id/background"
android:gravity="center_vertical|fill_horizontal">
<shape android:shape="rectangle"
android:tint="?attr/colorControlNormal">
<corners android:radius="8dp"/>
<size android:height="20dp" />
<solid android:color="#90caf9" />
</shape>
</item>
<item android:id="@android:id/progress"
android:gravity="center_vertical|fill_horizontal">
<scale android:scaleWidth="100%">
<shape android:shape="rectangle"
android:tint="?attr/colorControlActivated">
<corners android:radius="8dp"/>
<size android:height="20dp" />
<solid android:color="#b9f6ca" />
</shape>
</scale>
</item>
</layer-list>
Customizing indeterminate progress bar
Below xml is a drawable resource for circular progress bar customization.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@android:id/progress"
android:top="16dp"
android:bottom="16dp">
<rotate
android:fromDegrees="45"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%"
android:toDegrees="315">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<size
android:width="80dp"
android:height="80dp" />
<stroke
android:width="6dp"
android:color="#b71c1c" />
</shape>
</rotate>
</item>
</layer-list>
Customizing a ProgressBar requires defining the attribute or properties for the background and progress of your progress bar.
Create an XML file named customprogressbar.xml in your res->drawable folder:
custom_progressbar.xml
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<!-- Define the background properties like color etc -->
<item android:id="@android:id/background">
<shape>
<gradient
android:startColor="#000001"
android:centerColor="#0b131e"
android:centerY="1.0"
android:endColor="#0d1522"
android:angle="270"
/>
</shape>
</item>
<!-- Define the progress properties like start color, end color etc -->
<item android:id="@android:id/progress">
<clip>
<shape>
<gradient
android:startColor="#007A00"
android:centerColor="#007A00"
android:centerY="1.0"
android:endColor="#06101d"
android:angle="270"
/>
</shape>
</clip>
</item>
</layer-list>
Now you need to set the progressDrawable property in customprogressbar.xml (drawable)
You can do this in the XML file or in the Activity (at run time).
Do the following in your XML:
<ProgressBar
android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
android:progressDrawable="@drawable/custom_progressbar"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
At run time do the following
// Get the Drawable custom_progressbar
Drawable draw=res.getDrawable(R.drawable.custom_progressbar);
// set the drawable as progress drawable
progressBar.setProgressDrawable(draw);
Edit: corrected xml layout
