What I want to archive is, highlight a text or an image as we do in PDF or any other doc editor.
What I am doing is, in my xml layout I have added a TextView, ImageView, WebView in an RelativeLayout and depending on the type of the contents to be displayed, I change the visibility of the one, for example if I have an image to display then I set the image Path to ImageView and set it is as visible and others as invisible.
For drawing highlight, I am trying to use Android SDK demo FingerPaint.
On Top of all these views I have MyView, which draws the highlight, which is from FingerPaint SDK demo, I have made the canvas transparent so I am able to see widgets below MyView.
Questions that I have:
I am not able to get what is the use of mCanvas = new
Canvas(mBitmap); in onSizeChanged method, as mCanvas is not added to view, when I remove it then old lines that i draw does not display on the screen.
How to change the line size and make color of the line semi transparent, so that view below MyView is visible from the line.
How to draw only straight lines (Vertical/Horizontal).

when i put bitmap background on view i fill the color using finger and i select the erase button that will be also remove color and car image what should i do please help me i only remove color not bitmap image from the background
See the image]1
Add two views one for background and one for color so if you erase in one view it will not affect the below view
I have an ImageView with the source being an ImageAsset.
My image is a circle with a plus and I am looking to colour the inside of the circle only. How do I do that?
Using setBackgroundColor colours the whole of the view thus giving a square background like this:
.
You can apply a color tint to your ImageView. This will not affect your background if it's transparent, just the colored part (which is the circle and the plus)
imageView.setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.COLOR_YOUR_COLOR),
android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY);
Update
Using android.graphics.PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN will also work (if you don't need to multiply the source and destination pixels)
Update 2
Since the destination part is not colored than the best solution is to use VectorDrawable.
You can use VectorChildFinder to find inner parts of your SVG resource and change its color.
VectorChildFinder vector = new VectorChildFinder(this, R.drawable.my_vector, imageView);
VectorDrawableCompat.VFullPath path1 = vector.findPathByName("path1");
path1.setFillColor(Color.RED);
imageView.invalidate();
to create your SVG, follow these steps :
Just click right button on folder(drawable for ex.) and choose:
then choose:
I have a transparent layout in android, and behind the layout there is an image. how to make the linear blur ? I found examples to make the image itself blur but I don't want to make whole image blue, just only the part that is behind the linear layout.
Set a semitransparent Blur image to the linear layout or simplest set a color to linear layout and set it to semitransparent by defining alpha
edited solution
do this...
1.) create a blur copy of the image u have on background.
2.) clip the image by using
Bitmap croppedBmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(originalBmp, startX, startY, widthLayout , heightOfLayout);
3.) set this image in the Linear Layout using an image-view with height and width attribute as fill-parent.
I have pretty complex solution, so there won't be any code. So, here is idea, step by step:
Let's assume that your layout have just single custom LinearLayout. No ImageView as a background.
What we going to do, is draw background drawable of LinearLayout by our own, so it will first draw full image and then draw blurred square from the same image on top. Content of LinearLayout might be moved to desired position using paddings.
So, create something like MyLinearLayout and put it to your layout resource. Provide required constructors.
Override onAttachedToWindow() and onDetachedFromWindow() methods. Inside them we should load our background Bitmap and recycle it accordingly. Let's name it mBackground
Override draw() method. Inside it we're going to first draw our mBackground.
Then, you can use Canvas#clipRect() method to crop drawing area of Canvas to some specified rectangle. In your case, this rectangle should be the area below your content. You can figure it out using View#getPadding*() methods. Don't forget to call canvas#save() before clipping drawing area.
Now you can draw your bitmap once again with blur (I don't know which method exactly you're using, so let's assume that you know how to do it... but you still can share it with us :) ). Cool thing is that you can just draw the same Bitmap once again in full scale - since we had called clipRect before, it will be drawn only within this area. Don't forget to call canvas#restore() after drawing background.
Call super.draw() to draw rest of the stuff, that your LinearLayout contains.
How to change TRANSPARENT part of image set in imageview with another image?
Below is the main image, there is TRANSPARENT portion(here looks white), i want to set another image withing that portion of image.
any idea how to do it?
Question:
How to find TRANSPARENT portion starting point LEFT(x,y), RIGHT (x,y), BOTTOM LEFT (x,y), BOTTOM RIGHT(x,y) ? for image replacement.
How to process bitmap in runtime to add another image to make changes in imageview?
I've tried this to find transparent part of image.
You have a bitmap (B1) and there is only one rectangle transparent zone somewhere. And you want to place another bitmap (B2) inside it.
use monte-carlo method to find any transparent pixel on B1. You know
it's coordinates now.
go [left/right/top/bottom] from transparent pixel and find
first solid pixel. Now you know transparent rectangle coorditates.
There are several ways to put something inside transparent area. You can:
place second imageview (with B2) under the first one (with B1). Set B2 padding inside imageview accordingly transparent zone coordinates.
create new image from B1 and B2 and set it to imageview.
do it some other way...
try this example in this crop image with transparent part it will use full for you.

I have been trying to make a circular TextView. Its a circle in which I want to accomodate whole space above a circular bubble as shown in image below.
Kindly see attached image.
In this image, we have a circular bubble with circular text in it.
I have already tried setting oval shape .xml as background of TextView but still no luck.
Edit:
As text length increase. It must reduces in size to fit inside the circle. This is the hardest part to think about.
You need to create a custom view, extending from TextView probably, setting the circle as background image, and calculate the text width / break the lines manually according to the width of the text.
To calculate the width of a string, see How to calculate string font width in pixels?
Some math and calculations is required of course to measure the available space per line; but I think that's the only way, as there's no standard component out there to do it.
To place the text onto the view, use drawText of the Canvas class.
