Configuration

The VideoEditor SDK for Android can easily be tailored to meet your business needs. Learn how to swiftly create the editor your use-case requires.

Configuration tool

The SettingsList provides a lot of functions for customizing the Editor. To modify this configuration you need to generate a new SettingsList object and configurate the different models. Afterwards, you add the modified SettingsList to the VideoEditorBuilder.

PermissionRequest.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);

Toolset configuration#

Editor Tools

In order to change the tools or rearrange them, use the setToolList method of the UiConfigMainMenu object. Before this, you can use the getTools() method to get an ArrayList containing the default tools. You can use the clear() method to clear the list and refill it with your selection of tools in the preferred order or update it directly. You can also add custom tools by extending the AbstractToolPanel class.

A single ToolItem object takes three parameters:

  1. ID of the tool panel
  2. The tool name
  3. ImageSource of the icon
// Obtain the config
UiConfigMainMenu uiConfigMainMenu = settingsList.getSettingsModel(UiConfigMainMenu.class);
// Set the tools you want keep sure you license is cover the feature and do not forget to include the correct modules in your build.gradle
uiConfigMainMenu.setToolList(
new ToolItem(TransformToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_transform_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_transform)),
new ToolItem(FilterToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_filter_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_filters)),
new ToolItem(AdjustmentToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_adjustments_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_adjust)),
new ToolItem(StickerToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_sticker_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_sticker)),
new ToolItem(TextDesignToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_textDesign_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_text_design)),
new ToolItem(TextToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_text_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_text)),
new ToolItem(OverlayToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_overlay_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_overlay)),
new ToolItem(FrameToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_frame_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_frame)),
new ToolItem(BrushToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_brush_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_brush)),
new ToolItem(FocusToolPanel.TOOL_ID, R.string.pesdk_focus_title_name, ImageSource.create(R.drawable.imgly_icon_tool_focus))
);
