How to darken CardView using onClick?

Question

This is my first time asking a question here, so apologies if I do something wrong.

I have been using this playlist to make a RecyclerView in my app, with individual CardViews. I want to make it so that when a cardview is clicked, it will change the card to a slightly dark gray, to indicate that it was clicked. However, I don't know how to go about doing this. If someone could help me, that would be greatly appreciated! Let me know if you need any more info.

see this answer.it is yours :) https://stackoverflow.com/a/40712773/11586761 — HGH806, Jun 08 '20 at 16:42
But do you mean changing color for good or something like Ripple effect? — Gralls, Jun 08 '20 at 17:44

On onclick() method you just have to change card background color. You can do this by this command.

card.setCardBackgroundColor(color);

On the setOnClickListener method, you have to add

card.setCardBackgroundColor(colorYouWant);

and you can add it directly to the onBindViewHolder in the adapter class of the RecycleView.

Hope it works for you!

Thanks for this! I had created a sample cardview that would be used for the recylerview, but the cardview itself didn't have an id, so I couldn't access it. Hopefully this comment might help others who had this as well. – DangItsPang Jun 08 '20 at 18:32
