XML attributes

android:shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition

Indicates that this wallpaper service should receive zoom transition updates when changing the structural state of the device (e.g. when folding or unfolding a foldable device). When this value is set to true WallpaperService.Engine could receive zoom updates before or after changing the device state. Wallpapers receive zoom updates using WallpaperService.Engine.onZoomChanged(float) and zoom rendering should be handled manually. Zoom updates are delivered only when WallpaperService.Engine is created and not destroyed. Default value is true. Corresponds to WallpaperInfo.shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition()

May be a boolean value, such as "true" or "false".

android:supportsMultipleDisplays

Indicates that this wallpaper service can support multiple engines to render on each surface independently. An example use case is a multi-display set-up where the wallpaper service can render surfaces to each of the connected displays. Corresponds to WallpaperInfo.supportsMultipleDisplays()

May be a boolean value, such as "true" or "false".

Throws
`IOException`
`XmlPullParserException`

Public methods

describeContents

Added in API level 7

public int describeContents ()

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable instance's marshaled representation. For example, if the object will include a file descriptor in the output of writeToParcel(android.os.Parcel, int), the return value of this method must include the CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR bit.

Returns
`int`	a bitmask indicating the set of special object types marshaled by this Parcelable object instance. Value is either `0` or `CONTENTS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR`

dump

Added in API level 7

public void dump (Printer pw, 
                String prefix)

Parameters
`pw`	`Printer`
`prefix`	`String`

public ComponentName getComponent ()

Return the component of the service that implements this wallpaper.

Returns
`ComponentName`

getPackageName

Added in API level 7

public String getPackageName ()

Return the .apk package that implements this wallpaper.

Returns
`String`

getServiceInfo

Added in API level 7

public ServiceInfo getServiceInfo ()

Return the raw information about the Service implementing this wallpaper. Do not modify the returned object.

Returns
`ServiceInfo`

getServiceName

Added in API level 7

public String getServiceName ()

Return the class name of the service component that implements this wallpaper.

Returns
`String`

getSettingsActivity

Added in API level 7

public String getSettingsActivity ()

Return the class name of an activity that provides a settings UI for the wallpaper. You can launch this activity be starting it with an Intent whose action is MAIN and with an explicit ComponentName composed of getPackageName() and the class name returned here.

null will be returned if there is no settings activity associated with the wallpaper.

Returns
`String`

getSettingsSliceUri

Added in API level 29

public Uri getSettingsSliceUri ()

Returns an URI that provides a settings Slice for this wallpaper. The wallpaper should implement a SliceProvider associated with this URI. The system will display the Slice in the customization section while previewing the live wallpaper. Because this URI is accessible to other apps, it is recommended to protect it with the android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER permission.

null will be returned if there is no settings Slice URI associated with the wallpaper.

Returns
`Uri`	The URI.

getShowMetadataInPreview

Added in API level 25

public boolean getShowMetadataInPreview ()

Queries whether any metadata should be shown when previewing the wallpaper. If this value is set to true, any component that shows a preview of this live wallpaper should also show accompanying information like loadLabel(PackageManager), loadDescription(PackageManager), loadAuthor(PackageManager) and loadContextDescription(android.content.pm.PackageManager), so the user gets to know further information about this wallpaper.

Returns
`boolean`	Whether any metadata should be shown when previewing the wallpaper.

shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition

Added in API level 32

public boolean shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition ()

Returns whether this wallpaper should receive default zooming updates when the device changes its state (e.g. when folding or unfolding a foldable device). If set to false the wallpaper will not receive zoom events when changing the device state, so it can implement its own transition instead.

This corresponds to the value R.styleable.Wallpaper_shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition in the XML description of the wallpaper.

The default value is true.

Related XML Attributes:

android:shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if wallpaper should receive default device state change transition updates

See also:

R.styleable.Wallpaper_shouldUseDefaultUnfoldTransition

supportsMultipleDisplays

Added in API level 29

public boolean supportsMultipleDisplays ()

Returns whether this wallpaper service can support multiple engines to render on each surface independently. An example use case is a multi-display set-up where the wallpaper service can render surfaces to each of the connected displays.

This corresponds to the value R.styleable.Wallpaper_supportsMultipleDisplays in the XML description of the wallpaper.

The default value is false.

Related XML Attributes:

android:supportsMultipleDisplays

Returns
`boolean`	`true` if multiple engines can render independently on each surface.

toString

Added in API level 7

public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Returns
`String`	a string representation of the object.

writeToParcel

Added in API level 7
