Ability to change the shimmer colour?

[Reedyuk]

At the moment the shimmer takes the colour from the object its shimmering, it would be nice if you could specify a colour for the shimmer to be.
An example, a white label, could have a gold shimmer.
I hope that makes sense.

Thanks
Andrew.

I'd like to request this feature as well. For me, if the color of the object is green or blue and then shimmer is white. This can make something have a shiny object look effect.

[osolano]

Nevermind. I figured it out thank you for this effect!

Can you please share what you did to achieve that @osolano?

I wasn't able to change the colour @jarnoverreyt, only make it brighter or darker by playing around with these two properties:

shimmeringAnimationOpacity
shimmeringOpacity

@jyounus ,

Thanks for the quick answer but playing around with these two properties didn't do the trick for me.. It has to be a lot darker, but because my light background, it stays light..

[jyounus]

Yeah, unfortunately I had to change the design slightly for a specific screen because of that. :/

Did anyone figure out how to change the color?

Looking at the code behind, it doesn't seem like it does this. It just fades the opacity in an area. This isn't a feature it currently does. :(

A trick to do this, is have another view behind it that is the colour you want. Then when it fades the opacity it will reveal the colour you want to shine.
