Draw shapes dynamic - android

I am developing an application for technical drawing and I need to add a few tools to draw lines, circles, rectangles and corners. Now I can draw lines and free hand drawing but I cannot draw circles, rectangles and corners. I found in lot of websites how to draw it but static, I mean, draw the shape in the position you pre-set or the position where you touch but I need to know how to draw, for example, a circle in the position I touch and make it bigger than I separate my fingers. I hope you understand what I mean.

You can have two variables x and y, then every time you touch the screen set x and y to that value, while drawing draw the circle with coordinates x and y.
If you are drawing and you just want to keep a painted circle, you can paint the circle and add it inside your canvas on x and y, then the next time you touch the screen a new circle will be painted on x and y and the old one will remain painted.
Are you using Canvas ? if so you can find out how to do this here (Canvas documentation) and here (Bitmap documentation). Depending on your situation you can create a new Bitmap and assign it to Canvas then draw on the Canvasand inside your bitmap you will have your desired circles and other shapes, on the next drawing frame, draw new shapes and the changes will remain.
Edit: In order to have dynamic radius follow this logic, when you touch the screen, set x and y to that point (the center of the circle), while moving the finger on the screen, calculate the radius comparing to x and y, when lifting your finger apply the drawing on the bitmap as told above.
Some code:
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e)
{
switch (e.getAction())
{
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
x = (int) event.getX();
y = (int) event.getY();
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
//If I'm not wrong this is how to calculate radius,
//I'm at work and can't test this now, you can use your way
int distanceX = (int) event.getX() -x;
int distanceY = (int) event.getY() -y;
radius = sqrt(distanceX *distanceX + distanceY *distanceY);
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
//Draw circle inside your bitmap here
//This is like a flag to notify the program that no new shape is being drawn
x = -1;
break;
}
public void draw(Canvas canvas)
{
canvas.drawBitmap(myBitmap, 0, 0, null);
//A new shape is being drawn
if (x != -1)
//In here you place a switch to decide which shape you are drawing
//for this example i assume circle
canvas.drawCircle(radius, x, y, paint);
}
When you are lifting your finger the new circle should be painted on your bitmap so you don't have to add extra code for each new circle.
Edit2: I will add more code with the Bitmap and Canvas method i described.
Bitmap myBitmap;
Canvas myCanvas;
//Constructor
public myActivity(Bundle bundle) //or whatever your constructor is
{
myBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
myCanvas = new Canvas(myBitmap);
}
Now anything you draw on "myCanvas" will be applied to "myBitmap", when ACTION_UP activates draw circle on "myCanvas" which is drawn on the draw function.
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
myCanvas.drawCircle(radius, x, y, paint);
x = -1;
break;

Keep bitmap inside a rectangle - android

I am trying to understand the basics of moving objects on the screen etc. I have a bitmap and I am moving that bitmap on the screen. How can I keep the bitmap inside the rectangle and still move it. I would like to put the bitmap in a rectangle as that will help in collision detection with other objects. Below is my code so far.
Thanks
Bitmap bitmap1 = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.yellow_ball);
x1 = 0;
y1 = 100;
#Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
if(x1 < canvas.getWidth()){
x1 += 5;
}
else{
x1 = 0;
}
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap1, x1, y1, null);
}
You have the basic idea.
First, decide where you want to move the object to.
Then compare the new X coordinate to the rectangle's left and right bounds,
and if the new X coordinate is outside of the rectangle's bounds, reset the coordinate to the bound that it is exceeding.
Then, do the same for the Y coordinate.
Finally, move your bitmap to the adjusted X and Y coordinates.
I wrote code to do this a while back, see https://github.com/rfreedman/android-constrained-drag-and-drop-view for an example.

Detect two bitmap's hit

Hey i am making a game that you are a spaceship and enemys are falling on you so far i have made the spaceship shoot and the
enemy falling fron the top of the screen (i have already made that if the bullet hits the enemy you get points)
but i have one problem that im stuck on for 2 days already the problem is to detect spaceship and enemy hit (they hit each other)
when they hitting each other it works but also when they far away from each other..
the code of the hit check is
if(invaders.getx0()-(iwidth/2)>=this.x-(pwidth/2)&&invaders.getx0()+iwidth<=this.x+pwidth&&invaders.gety0()+iheight>this.y&&invaders.gety0()<=this.y) {
invaders.setbitmap(1);
}
it checks if enemy 0 hitted the spaceship
iwidth is the enemy bitmap width
iheight is enemy bitmap height
pwidth is spaceship bitmap width
pheight is spaceship bitmap height
this.x and this.y is spaceship x and y
invaders.getx0 and invaders.gety0 is the enemy x and y
and invaders.setbitmap() is to set the life
please help me thanks
You can use Rect to detect intersections. For example you can describe the location and size of the objects on screen with Rect like this:
Rect rect1 = new Rect(0, 0, 100, 10);
Rect rect2 = new Rect(20, 0, 10, 10);
And when you want to check if they intersect you just call intersect:
if(rect1.intersect(rect2)) {
// Rectangles intersect
} else {
// Rectangles don't intersect
}

How to determine whether or not user touch the oval in canvas?

I draw a oval in canvas by following codes and that works fine:
Paint paint = new Paint();
canvas.drawOval(new RectF(10, 10, 300, 100), paint);
When user click on screen, how could I determine whether or not user click within the oval?
Notes:
When I draw a Rect, I can use Rect.contains(int x, int y) to determine whether user click within it. But now I am drawing a oval.
Thanks in advance!
When you touch the screen you'll get the x and y coordinates. You also can know the center or you oval.
x, y are coordiantes when touched, center_x and center_y are coordinates of the center of the oval. R is the radius.
float dx = Math.abs(x-center_x);
float dy = Math.abs(y-center_y);
float R = radius ;//radius of circle.
boolean checkDistance(float dx,float dy,float R)
{
if(dx>R)
{
return false;//outside
}
else if(dy>R)
{
return false;//
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
Actually this solution is for a circle but you can get a good approximation using it or maybe could open your mind to change this code for your purpose.

How to rotate a bitmap in Android about images center smoothly without oscillatory movement

I want to rotate a bitmap image based on user click by 10 deg. Following numerous stackoverflow and google answers, I tried various combinations of Matrix rotation.
However the image doesn't really rotate as expected and gives a jittery view of rotation + oscillation about canvas center. To test I am increasing rotation angle by 10 deg (instead of clicks) each time object's draw method is called. The image is a symmetrical circle [64x64 enclosing rectangle] and I expect it to rotate at center of screen about it's own center like a wheel, but it rotates and moves diagonally towards right-down and moves back upto center of screen in an oscillatory fashion.
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
rotation += 10;
float px = this.viewWidth/2;
float py = this.viewHeight/2;
matrix.setRotate(rotation, bitmap.getWidth()/2, bitmap.getHeight()/2);
Bitmap newbmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, getImgWidth(), getImgHeight(), matrix, true);
canvas.drawBitmap(newbmp, px - (getImgWidth()/2), py - (getImgHeight()/2), null);
}
Here is an example.
I broke it to 3 steps.
The first translate moves the bitmap so that it's center is at 0,0
Then a rotation,
and finally move the bitmap center to where you want it on the canvas.
You don't need the second bitmap.
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
rotation += 10;
float px = this.viewWidth/2;
float py = this.viewHeight/2;
matrix.postTranslate(-bitmap.getWidth()/2, -bitmap.getHeight()/2);
matrix.postRotate(rotation);
matrix.postTranslate(px, py);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, matrix, null);
As an optimization, create the Matrix once outside this method and replace the creation with a call to matrix.reset()
You need to translate the bitmap to the 0,0 point (or draw it at 0,0) and rotate it there, then translate it back, as such:
canvas.save();
canvas.translate(this.viewWidth, this.viewHeight);
canvas.rotate(rotation);
canvas.drawBitmap(newbmp, -(getImgWidth()/2), -(getImgHeight()/2), null);
canvas.restore();
Here I draw it with the center at 0,0 (I think), because when you rotate, it's about 0,0 and not the center of the screen as one would think. If you draw the center at 0,0 then it will rotate about the center of the bitmap.
If my code does not accomplish drawing the bitmap center at 0,0 then you can change my code to draw it at the center and it will work as you want.
Hope this helps!
// x : x coordinate of image position
// y : y coordinate of image position
// w : width of canvas
// h : height of canvas
canvas.save();
canvas.rotate(angle, x + (w/2), y + (h/2));
canvas.drawBitmap(image, x, y, null);
canvas.restore();
The steps are
Save the existing canvas
Rotate the canvas about the center of the bitmap, that you would draw on canvas with an angle of rotation
Draw the image
Restore the image

Optimize Android canvas background drawing by caching matrix

I have a SurfaceView canvas I'm drawing a scene into.
The canvas is transformed to accomodate the logical scene size which is 1024x768 (while the actual screen is 800x480), and also to support zoom/scroll navigation on it.
Since I did not want black stripes on the sides (fitting 4:3 to 16:9) I'm using a different background bitmap which has "stretched" sides to cover the ratio difference.
Another twist in the plot, is that I need to support both phones and tables. For tablets I'm loading a higher quality (size) image and for phones I'm scaling down the background bitmap when loading it from disk.
Below is code that does what I want (although probably not the best way), and in particular, I have a feeling the background calculations can be cached into a matrix to be used later in canvas.drawBitmap(Bitmap, Matrix, Paint);
(Also, I couldn't get the equivalent positioning of drawBitmap(Bitmap, left, top, Paint) by translating the canvas with these offsets, I'm also curious why).
This is the draw routine:
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.save();
float midX = width/2;
float midY = height/2;
// zoom out to fit logical view, and translate for future
// sprite drawing with logical coordinates
// x,y and zoom are calculated in on init and updated in touch events
canvas.translate(x, y);
canvas.scale(zoom, zoom, midX, midY);
// background part
if(back != null && !back.isRecycled()) {
// todo: these can probably be pre-calculated for optimization
// todo: but so far I couldn't get it right..
if(bgMatrix != null) { // this is where I'm thinking of using the cached matrix
canvas.drawBitmap(back, bgMatrix, paint);
}
else {
float offsetW = (width-back.getWidth())/2;
float offsetH = (height-back.getHeight())/2;
canvas.save();
// bgScaleFactor is calculated upon setting the bg bitmap
// it says by how much we need to scale the image to fill the canvas
// taking into account the image (possible) downscale
canvas.scale(bgScaleFactor, bgScaleFactor, midX, midY);
// this doesn't work: canvas.postTranslate(offsetW, offsetH) and use 0,0 for next draw
canvas.drawBitmap(back, offsetW, offsetH, paint);
// todo: here I would like to save a matrix which represents
// how the back bitmap was drawn onto the canvas
// so that next time these calculations can be avoided
// this fails: bgMatrix = canvas.getMatrix();
canvas.restore();
}
// draw scene shapes on transformed canvas
if(shapes != null){
shapes.onDraw(canvas);
}
canvas.restore();
}
