I am trying to load a placeholder image using GlideLibrary and I am using SimpleTarget. The placeholder image is not loading but the image from the url is loading. I have searched a lot and used RequestOptions as well. Still, it doesn't seem to work.

Below is the code :

Glide.with(mContext).load("https://i.imgur.com/0k7ZFWr.png").apply(RequestOptions.placeholderOf(R.drawable.pubgguide_icon)).into(new SimpleTarget<Drawable>() {

        @Override

        public void onResourceReady(Drawable resource, Transition<? super Drawable> transition) {

            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {

                holder.cardImageLayout.setBackground(resource);

                Drawable cardViewBackground = holder.cardImageLayout.getBackground();

                cardViewBackground.setColorFilter(0x5F000000, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);

            }

        }

    });

I am using Glide library 4.7.1. I have tried using setDefaultRequestOptions() as well - not working.

My cardview XML:

placeHolderOf sets place Holder image only if you are loading it in an ImageView. If you want to set place holder to a ViewGroup, SimpleTarget class provides a method which you can override to set background when image starts loading.

In your case try loading like below :

Glide.with(mContext)

            .load("https://i.imgur.com/0k7ZFWr.png")

            .apply(RequestOptions.placeholderOf(R.drawable.pubgguide_icon))

            .into(new SimpleTarget<Drawable>() {



                @Override

                public void onLoadStarted(@Nullable Drawable resource) {

                    holder.cardImageLayout.setBackground(resource);

                }



                @Override

                public void onResourceReady(@NonNull Drawable resource, Transition<? super Drawable> transition) {

                    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) {

                        holder.cardImageLayout.setBackground(resource);

                        Drawable cardViewBackground = holder.cardImageLayout.getBackground();

                        cardViewBackground.setColorFilter(0x5F000000, PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_ATOP);

                    }

                }

            });

You can like this with Glide (4.7.1)

Glide.with(getActivity()).load(avatar)

                .apply(RequestOptions.bitmapTransform(new CircleCrop()).placeholder(R.mipmap.defaultusericon))

                .into(mUserIcon);
