setImageAlpha() is not working

[dsemelianov]

I'm programatically applying alpha values to the image like this: mProfilePicture.setImageAlpha(100); But it doesn't seem to do anything.

I've tried using the same line of code on a regular ImageView and it works just fine, but when applied to the CircleImageView it doesn't work :(

Any suggestions/alternatives?

[dsemelianov]

Not a fix but a workaround -- I ended up putting the CircleImageView inside of a RelativeLayout and changed the opacity by doing this: mRelativeLayout.setAlpha(0.5f);

Alpha is currently not supported - I might add it in the future though.

I have used @dsemelianov's workaround for now by calling .setAlpha on a dummy container view.

Would be nice to have this, though.

Alpha support has been merged in 7ad4632 and will be available with the next release.
