I have integrated MLkit FaceDetection into my android application. I have referred below URL
https://firebase.google.com/docs/ml-kit/android/detect-faces
Code for Face Detection Processor Class is
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
/** Face Detector Demo. */
public class FaceDetectionProcessor extends VisionProcessorBase<List<FirebaseVisionFace>> {
private static final String TAG = "FaceDetectionProcessor";
private final FirebaseVisionFaceDetector detector;
public FaceDetectionProcessor() {
FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions options =
new FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions.Builder()
.setClassificationType(FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions.ALL_CLASSIFICATIONS)
.setLandmarkType(FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions.ALL_LANDMARKS)
.setTrackingEnabled(true)
.build();
detector = FirebaseVision.getInstance().getVisionFaceDetector(options);
}
#Override
public void stop() {
try {
detector.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Exception thrown while trying to close Face Detector: " + e);
}
}
#Override
protected Task<List<FirebaseVisionFace>> detectInImage(FirebaseVisionImage image) {
return detector.detectInImage(image);
}
#Override
protected void onSuccess(
#NonNull List<FirebaseVisionFace> faces,
#NonNull FrameMetadata frameMetadata,
#NonNull GraphicOverlay graphicOverlay) {
graphicOverlay.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < faces.size(); ++i) {
FirebaseVisionFace face = faces.get(i);
FaceGraphic faceGraphic = new FaceGraphic(graphicOverlay);
graphicOverlay.add(faceGraphic);
faceGraphic.updateFace(face, frameMetadata.getCameraFacing());
}
}
#Override
protected void onFailure(#NonNull Exception e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Face detection failed " + e);
}
}
Here in "onSuccess" listener , we will get array of "FirebaseVisionFace" class objects which will have "Bounding Box" of face.
#Override
protected void onSuccess(
#NonNull List<FirebaseVisionFace> faces,
#NonNull FrameMetadata frameMetadata,
#NonNull GraphicOverlay graphicOverlay) {
graphicOverlay.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < faces.size(); ++i) {
FirebaseVisionFace face = faces.get(i);
FaceGraphic faceGraphic = new FaceGraphic(graphicOverlay);
graphicOverlay.add(faceGraphic);
faceGraphic.updateFace(face, frameMetadata.getCameraFacing());
}
}
I want to know How to convert this FirebaseVisionFace objects into Bitmap.
I want to extract face image and show it in ImageView. Can anyone please help me . Thanks in advance.
Note : I have downloaded the sample Source code of MLKit android from below URL
https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-android/tree/master/mlkit
You created the FirebaseVisionImage from a bitmap. After detection returns, each FirebaseVisionFace describes a bounding box as a Rect that you can use to extract the detected face from the original bitmap, e.g. using Bitmap.createBitmap().
Since the accepted answer was not specific enough I will try to explain what I did.
1.- Create an ImageView on LivePreviewActivity like this:
private ImageView imageViewTest;
2.- Create it on the Activity xml and link it to java file. I placed it right before the the sample code had, so it can be visible on top of the camera feed.
3.-When they create a FaceDetectionProcessor pass an instance of the imageView to be able to set the source image inside the object.
FaceDetectionProcessor processor = new FaceDetectionProcessor(imageViewTest);
4.-Change the constructor of FaceDetectionProcessor to be able to receive ImageView as a parameter and create a global variable that saves that instance.
public FaceDetectionProcessor(ImageView imageView) {
FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions options =
new FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions.Builder()
.setClassificationType(FirebaseVisionFaceDetectorOptions.ALL_CLASSIFICATIONS)
.setTrackingEnabled(true)
.build();
detector = FirebaseVision.getInstance().getVisionFaceDetector(options);
this.imageView = imageView;
}
5.- I created a crop method that takes a bitmap and a Rect to focus only on the face. So go ahead and do the same.
public static Bitmap cropBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, Rect rect) {
int w = rect.right - rect.left;
int h = rect.bottom - rect.top;
Bitmap ret = Bitmap.createBitmap(w, h, bitmap.getConfig());
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(ret);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, -rect.left, -rect.top, null);
return ret;
}
6.- Modify detectInImage method to save an instance of the bitmap being detected and save it in a global variable.
#Override
protected Task<List<FirebaseVisionFace>> detectInImage(FirebaseVisionImage image) {
imageBitmap = image.getBitmapForDebugging();
return detector.detectInImage(image);
}
7.- Finally, modify OnSuccess method by calling the cropping method and assign result to the imageView.
#Override
protected void onSuccess(
#NonNull List<FirebaseVisionFace> faces,
#NonNull FrameMetadata frameMetadata,
#NonNull GraphicOverlay graphicOverlay) {
graphicOverlay.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < faces.size(); ++i) {
FirebaseVisionFace face = faces.get(i);
FaceGraphic faceGraphic = new FaceGraphic(graphicOverlay);
graphicOverlay.add(faceGraphic);
faceGraphic.updateFace(face, frameMetadata.getCameraFacing());
croppedImage = cropBitmap(imageBitmap, face.getBoundingBox());
}
imageView.setImageBitmap(croppedImage);
}
This may help you if you're trying to use ML Kit to detect faces and OpenCV to perform image processing on the detected face. Note in this particular example, you need the originalcamera bitmap inside onSuccess.
I haven't found a way to do this without a bitmap and truthfully still searching.
#Override
protected void onSuccess(#NonNull List<FirebaseVisionFace> faces, #NonNull FrameMetadata frameMetadata, #NonNull GraphicOverlay graphicOverlay) {
graphicOverlay.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < faces.size(); ++i) {
FirebaseVisionFace face = faces.get(i);
/* Original implementation has original image. Original Image represents the camera preview from the live camera */
// Create Mat representing the live camera itself
Mat rgba = new Mat(originalCameraImage.getHeight(), originalCameraImage.getWidth(), CvType.CV_8UC4);
// The box with a Imgproc affect made by OpenCV
Mat rgbaInnerWindow;
Mat mIntermediateMat = new Mat();
// Make box for Imgproc the size of the detected face
int rows = (int) face.getBoundingBox().height();
int cols = (int) face.getBoundingBox().width();
int left = cols / 8;
int top = rows / 8;
int width = cols * 3 / 4;
int height = rows * 3 / 4;
// Create a new bitmap based on live preview
// which will show the actual image processing
Bitmap newBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(originalCameraImage);
// Bit map to Mat
Utils.bitmapToMat(newBitmap, rgba);
// Imgproc stuff. In this examply I'm doing edge detection.
rgbaInnerWindow = rgba.submat(top, top + height, left, left + width);
Imgproc.Canny(rgbaInnerWindow, mIntermediateMat, 80, 90);
Imgproc.cvtColor(mIntermediateMat, rgbaInnerWindow, Imgproc.COLOR_GRAY2BGRA, 4);
rgbaInnerWindow.release();
// After processing image, back to bitmap
Utils.matToBitmap(rgba, newBitmap);
// Load the bitmap
CameraImageGraphic imageGraphic = new CameraImageGraphic(graphicOverlay, newBitmap);
graphicOverlay.add(imageGraphic);
FaceGraphic faceGraphic;
faceGraphic = new FaceGraphic(graphicOverlay, face, null);
graphicOverlay.add(faceGraphic);
FaceGraphic faceGraphic = new FaceGraphic(graphicOverlay);
graphicOverlay.add(faceGraphic);
// I can't speak for this
faceGraphic.updateFace(face, frameMetadata.getCameraFacing());
}
}
Actually you can just read the ByteBuffer then you can get the array for write to object files you want with OutputStream. Of course you can get it from getBoundingBox() too.
I want to display animated GIF images in my aplication.
As I found out the hard way Android doesn't support animated GIF natively.
However it can display animations using AnimationDrawable:
Develop > Guides > Images & Graphics > Drawables Overview
The example uses animation saved as frames in application resources but what I need is to display animated gif directly.
My plan is to break animated GIF to frames and add each frame as drawable to AnimationDrawable.
Does anyone know how to extract frames from animated GIF and convert each of them into Drawable?
Android actually can decode and display animated GIFs, using android.graphics.Movie class.
This is not too much documented, but is in SDK Reference. Moreover, it is used in Samples in ApiDemos in BitmapDecode example with some animated flag.
UPDATE:
Use glide:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.9.0'
}
usage:
Glide.with(context).load(GIF_URI).into(new DrawableImageViewTarget(IMAGE_VIEW));
see docs
also put (main/assets/htmls/name.gif) [with this html adjust to the size]
<html style="margin: 0;">
<body style="margin: 0;">
<img src="name.gif" style="width: 100%; height: 100%" />
</body>
</html>
declare in your Xml for example like this (main/res/layout/name.xml): [you define the size, for example]
<WebView
android:layout_width="70dp"
android:layout_height="70dp"
android:id="#+id/webView"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />
in your Activity put the next code inside of onCreate
web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
web.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT); //for gif without background
web.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/htmls/name.html");
if you want load dynamically you have to load the webview with data:
// or "[path]/name.gif" (e.g: file:///android_asset/name.gif for resources in asset folder), and in loadDataWithBaseURL(), you don't need to set base URL, on the other hand, it's similar to loadData() method.
String gifName = "name.gif";
String yourData = "<html style=\"margin: 0;\">\n" +
" <body style=\"margin: 0;\">\n" +
" <img src=" + gifName + " style=\"width: 100%; height: 100%\" />\n" +
" </body>\n" +
" </html>";
// Important to add this attribute to webView to get resource from outside.
webView.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
// Notice: should use loadDataWithBaseURL. BaseUrl could be the base url such as the path to asset folder, or SDCard or any other path, where your images or the other media resides related to your html
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("file:///android_asset/", yourData, "text/html", "utf-8", null);
// Or if you want to load image from SD card or where else, here is the idea.
String base = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath().toString();
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL(base + '/', yourData, "text/html", "utf-8", null);
suggestion: is better load gif with static images for more information check https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/AnimationDrawable.html
That's it, I hope you help.
Currently we can use Glide https://github.com/bumptech/glide
I solved the problem by splitting gif animations into frames before saving it to phone, so I would not have to deal with it in Android.
Then I download every frame onto phone, create Drawable from it and then create AnimationDrawable - very similar to example from my question
i found a very easy way, with a nice and simple working example here
display animated widget
Before getting it working there are some chages to do do in the code
IN THE FOLLOWING
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceStated);
setContentView(new MYGIFView());
}
}
just replace
setContentView(new MYGIFView());
in
setContentView(new MYGIFView(this));
AND IN
public GIFView(Context context) {
super(context);
Provide your own gif animation file
is = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.drawable.earth);
movie = Movie.decodeStream(is);
}
REPLACE THE FIRST LINE IN
public MYGIFView(Context context) {
according to the name of the class...
after done this little changes it should work as for me...
hope this help
Glide 4.6
1. To Load gif
GlideApp.with(context)
.load(R.raw.gif) // or url
.into(imageview);
2. To get the file object
GlideApp.with(context)
.asGif()
.load(R.raw.gif) //or url
.into(new SimpleTarget<GifDrawable>() {
#Override
public void onResourceReady(#NonNull GifDrawable resource, #Nullable Transition<? super GifDrawable> transition) {
resource.start();
//resource.setLoopCount(1);
imageView.setImageDrawable(resource);
}
});
Ways to show animated GIF on Android:
Movie class. As mentioned above, it's fairly buggy.
WebView. It's very simple to use and usually works. But sometimes it starts to misbehave, and it's always on some obscure devices you don't have. Plus, you can’t use multiple instances in any kind of list views, because it does things to your memory. Still, you might consider it as a primary approach.
Custom code to decode gifs into bitmaps and show them as Drawable or ImageView. I'll mention two libraries:
https://github.com/koral--/android-gif-drawable - decoder is implemented in C, so it's very efficient.
https://code.google.com/p/giffiledecoder - decoder is implemented in Java, so it's easier to work with. Still reasonably efficient, even with large files.
You'll also find many libraries based on GifDecoder class. That's also a Java-based decoder, but it works by loading the entire file into memory, so it's only applicable to small files.
I had a really hard time to have animated gif working in Android. I only had following two working:
WebView
Ion
WebView works OK and really easy, but the problem is it makes the view loads slower and the app would be unresponsive for a second or so. I did not like that. So I have tried different approaches (DID NOT WORK):
ImageViewEx is deprecated!
picasso did not load animated gif
android-gif-drawable looks great, but it caused some wired NDK issues in my project. It caused my local NDK library stop working, and I was not able to fix it
I had some back and forth with Ion; Finally, I have it working, and it is really fast :-)
Ion.with(imgView)
.error(R.drawable.default_image)
.animateGif(AnimateGifMode.ANIMATE)
.load("file:///android_asset/animated.gif");
Glide
Image Loader Library for Android, recommended by Google.
Glide is quite similar to Picasso but this is much faster than Picasso.
Glide consumes less memory than Picasso.
What that Glide has but Picasso doesn't
An ability to load GIF Animation to a simple ImageView might be the most interesting feature of Glide. And yes, you can't do that with Picasso.
Some important links-
https://github.com/bumptech/glide
http://inthecheesefactory.com/blog/get-to-know-glide-recommended-by-google/en
Use ImageViewEx, a library that makes using a gif as easy as using an ImageView.
Try this, bellow code display gif file in progressbar
loading_activity.xml(in Layout folder)
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#ffffff" >
<ProgressBar
android:id="#+id/progressBar"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleLarge"
android:layout_width="70dp"
android:layout_height="70dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:indeterminate="true"
android:indeterminateDrawable="#drawable/custom_loading"
android:visibility="gone" />
</RelativeLayout>
custom_loading.xml(in drawable folder)
here i put black_gif.gif(in drawable folder), you can put your own gif here
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animated-rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:drawable="#drawable/black_gif"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%" />
LoadingActivity.java(in res folder)
public class LoadingActivity extends Activity {
ProgressBar bar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_loading);
bar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.progressBar);
bar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
Nobody has mentioned the Ion or Glide library. they work very well.
It's easier to handle compared to a WebView.
I have had success with the solution proposed within this article, a class called GifMovieView, which renders a View which can then be displayed or added to a specific ViewGroup. Check out the other methods presented in parts 2 and 3 of the specified article.
The only drawback to this method is that the antialiasing on the movie is not that good (must be a side-effect of using the "shady" Android Movie Class). You are then better off setting the background to a solid color within your animated GIF.
Some thoughts on the BitmapDecode example... Basically it uses the ancient, but rather featureless Movie class from android.graphics.
On recent API versions you need to turn off hardware acceleration, as described here. It was segfaulting for me otherwise.
<activity
android:hardwareAccelerated="false"
android:name="foo.GifActivity"
android:label="The state of computer animation 2014">
</activity>
Here is the BitmapDecode example shortened with only the GIF part. You have to make your own Widget (View) and draw it by yourself. Not quite as powerful as an ImageView.
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.*;
import android.os.*;
import android.view.View;
public class GifActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(new GifView(this));
}
static class GifView extends View {
Movie movie;
GifView(Context context) {
super(context);
movie = Movie.decodeStream(
context.getResources().openRawResource(
R.drawable.some_gif));
}
#Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
if (movie != null) {
movie.setTime(
(int) SystemClock.uptimeMillis() % movie.duration());
movie.draw(canvas, 0, 0);
invalidate();
}
}
}
}
2 other methods, one with ImageView another with WebView can be found in this fine tutorial. The ImageView method uses the Apache licensed android-gifview from Google Code.
#PointerNull gave good solution, but it is not perfect. It doesn't work on some devices with big files and show buggy Gif animation with delta frames on pre ICS version.
I found solution without this bugs. It is library with native decoding to drawable: koral's android-gif-drawable.
For only android API (Android Pie)28 and + use AnimatedImageDrawable as
// ImageView from layout
val ima : ImageView = findViewById(R.id.img_gif)
// create AnimatedDrawable
val decodedAnimation = ImageDecoder.decodeDrawable(
// create ImageDecoder.Source object
ImageDecoder.createSource(resources, R.drawable.tenor))
// set the drawble as image source of ImageView
ima.setImageDrawable(decodedAnimation)
// play the animation
(decodedAnimation as? AnimatedImageDrawable)?.start()
XML code, add a ImageView
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/img_gif"
android:background="#drawable/ic_launcher_background" <!--Default background-->
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="200dp" />
AnimatedImageDrawable is a child of Drawable and created by ImageDecoder.decodeDrawable
ImageDecoder.decodeDrawable which further required the instance of ImageDecoder.Source created by ImageDecoder.createSource.
ImageDecoder.createSource can only take source as a name, ByteBuffer, File, resourceId, URI, ContentResolver to create source object and uses it to create AnimatedImageDrawable as Drawable (polymorphic call)
static ImageDecoder.Source createSource(AssetManager assets, String fileName)
static ImageDecoder.Source createSource(ByteBuffer buffer)
static ImageDecoder.Source createSource(File file)
static ImageDecoder.Source createSource(Resources res, int resId)
static ImageDecoder.Source createSource(ContentResolver cr, Uri uri)
Note: You can also create Bitmap using ImageDecoder#decodeBitmap.
Output:
AnimatedDrawable also supports resizing, frame and color manipulation
Put it into a WebView, it has to be able to display it correctly, since the default browser supports gif files. (Froyo+, if i am not mistaken)
There are two options to load animated gifs into our Android apps
1)Using Glide to load the gif into an ImageView.
String urlGif = "https://cdn.dribbble.com/users/263558/screenshots/1337078/dvsd.gif";
//add Glide implementation into the build.gradle file.
ImageView imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
Uri uri = Uri.parse(urlGif);
Glide.with(getApplicationContext()).load(uri).into(imageView);
2) Using an html to load the gif into a WebView
Create the html with the address to the .gif file:
<html style="margin: 0;">
<body style="margin: 0;">
<img src="https://..../myimage.gif" style="width: 100%; height: 100%" />
</body>
</html>
store this file into the assets directory:
The load this html into the WebView of your application:
WebView webView = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView);
webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/html/webpage_gif.html");
Heres is a complete example of this two options.
I think the better library to handle gif files is this one: by koral
Used it and i'm successful and this library is dedicated to GIF'S; but where as the picasso and glide are general purpose image framework; so i think the developers of this library have entirely concentrated on gif files
Use fresco. Here's how to do it:
http://frescolib.org/docs/animations.html
Here's the repo with the sample:
https://github.com/facebook/fresco/tree/master/samples/animation
Beware fresco does not support wrap content!
Just wanted to add that the Movie class is now deprecated.
This class was deprecated in API level P.
It is recommended to use this
AnimatedImageDrawable
Drawable for drawing animated images (like GIF).
Similar to what #Leonti said, but with a little more depth:
What I did to solve the same problem was open up GIMP, hide all layers except for one, export it as its own image, and then hide that layer and unhide the next one, etc., until I had individual resource files for each one. Then I could use them as frames in the AnimationDrawable XML file.
Something I did for showing gifs in apps. I extended ImageView so people can use its attributes freely. It can show gifs from url or from the assets directory.
The library also makes it easy for extending classes to inherit from it and extend it to support different methods to initialize the gif.
https://github.com/Gavras/GIFView
There's a little guide on the github page.
It was also published on Android Arsenal:
https://android-arsenal.com/details/1/4947
Use example:
From XML:
<com.whygraphics.gifview.gif.GIFView xmlns:gif_view="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/main_activity_gif_vie"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:scaleType="center"
gif_view:gif_src="url:http://pop.h-cdn.co/assets/16/33/480x264/gallery-1471381857-gif-season-2.gif" />
In the activity:
GIFView mGifView = (GIFView) findViewById(R.id.main_activity_gif_vie);
mGifView.setOnSettingGifListener(new GIFView.OnSettingGifListener() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(GIFView view, Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "onSuccess()", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
#Override
public void onFailure(GIFView view, Exception e) {
}
});
Setting the gif programmatically:
mGifView.setGifResource("asset:gif1");
Easiest way - Can be consider the below code
We can take advantage of Imageview setImageResource , refer below code for the same.
The below code can be used to show the image like gif incase if you have the multiple split image of gif. Just split the gif into individual png from a online tool and put image in the drawable like the below order
image_1.png, image_2.png, etc.
Have the handler to change the image dynamically.
int imagePosition = 1;
Handler handler = new Handler();
Runnable runnable = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
updateImage();
}
};
public void updateImage() {
appInstance.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int resId = getResources().getIdentifier("image_" + imagePosition, "drawable", appInstance.getPackageName());
gifImageViewDummy.setImageResource(resId);
imagePosition++;
//Consider you have 30 image for the anim
if (imagePosition == 30) {
//this make animation play only once
handler.removeCallbacks(runnable);
} else {
//You can define your own time based on the animation
handler.postDelayed(runnable, 50);
}
//to make animation to continue use below code and remove above if else
// if (imagePosition == 30)
//imagePosition = 1;
// handler.postDelayed(runnable, 50);
//
}
});
}
The easy way to display animated GIF directly from URL to your app layout is to use WebView class.
Step 1:
In your layout XML
<WebView
android:id="#+id/webView"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
/>
Step 2: In your Activity
WebView wb;
wb = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
wb.loadUrl("https://.......);
Step 3: In your Manifest.XML make Internet permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
Step 4: In case you want to make your GIF background transparent and make GIF fit to your Layout
wb.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
wb.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
wb.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
If you want to use Glide for loading gif:
Glide.with(this)
.asGif()
.load(R.raw.onboarding_layers) //Your gif resource
.apply(RequestOptions.diskCacheStrategyOf(DiskCacheStrategy.NONE))
.listener(new RequestListener<GifDrawable>() {
#Override
public boolean onLoadFailed(#Nullable #org.jetbrains.annotations.Nullable GlideException e, Object model, Target<GifDrawable> target, boolean isFirstResource) {
return false;
}
#Override
public boolean onResourceReady(GifDrawable resource, Object model, Target<GifDrawable> target, DataSource dataSource, boolean isFirstResource) {
resource.setLoopCount(1);
return false;
}
})
.into((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.layer_icons));
To save resources there is glide library for.
Have no idea why to use anything else, especialy webview to show image only.
Glide is perfect and easy library that prepares animated drawable from gif and put it directly to imageview.
The logic of gifdrawable handle animation itself.
Gif have lzw ziped raw rgb data of an animation inside.
There is no reason for complicated usage of webview and manage more files to show just a gif file in app.
First of all the Android browser should support Animated GIFs. If it doesn't then it's a bug! Have a look at the issue trackers.
If you're displaying these animated GIFs outside of a browser it might be a different story. To do what you're asking would require external library that supports the decoding of Animated GIFs.
The first port of call would be to look at Java2D or JAI (Java Advanced Imaging) API, although I would be very surprised if Android Dalvik would support those libraries in your App.

as the question, I use ImageSpan to add a image into TextView. but it can't animate.Do you have any advise？
I try to extend AnimationDrawable to add drawable into ImageSpan. but it doesn't work
public class EmoticonDrawalbe extends AnimationDrawable {
private Bitmap bitmap;
private GifDecode decode;
private int gifCount;
public EmoticonDrawalbe(Context context, String source) {
decode = new GifDecode();
decode.read(context, source);
gifCount = decode.getFrameCount();
if (gifCount <= 0) {
return;
}
for (int i = 0; i < gifCount; i++) {
bitmap = decode.getFrame(i);
addFrame(new BitmapDrawable(bitmap), decode.getDelay(i));
}
setOneShot(false);
}
#Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
super.draw(canvas);
start();
}
}
I would try to either:
Split the animated image (presumably a .gif file?) into separate frames and combine those into an AnimationDrawable that you then pass to the ImageSpan's constructor.
Subclass ImageSpan and override the onDraw() method to add your own logic to draw the different frames based on some sort of timer. There's an api demo that illustrates how to use the Movie class to load up an animated gif that might be worth looking into.
Big Edit:
Alright, sorry for not getting back earlier, but I had to set aside some time to investigate this myself. I've had a play with it since I'll probably be needing a solution for this myself for one of my future projects. Unfortunately, I ran into similar problems with using an AnimationDrawable, which seems to be caused by the caching mechanism that DynamicDrawableSpan (an indirect superclass of ImageSpan) uses.
Another issue for me is that there does not appear to be a straightforward wat to invalidate a Drawable, or ImageSpan. Drawable actually has invalidateDrawable(Drawable) and invalidateSelf() methods, but the first did not have any effect in my case, whereas the latter only works if some magical Drawable.Callback is attached. I couldn't find any decent documentation on how to use this...
So, I went a step further up the logic tree to solve the problem. I have to add a warning in advance that this is most likely not an optimal solution, but for now it's the only one I was able to get to work. You probably won't run into problems if you use my solution sporadically, but I'd avoid filling the whole screen with emoticons by all means. I'm not sure what would happen, but then again, I probably don't even want to know.
Without further ado, here's the code. I added some comments to make it self-explanatory. It's quite likely a used a different Gif decoding class/libary, but it should work with about any out there.
AnimatedGifDrawable.java
public class AnimatedGifDrawable extends AnimationDrawable {
private int mCurrentIndex = 0;
private UpdateListener mListener;
public AnimatedGifDrawable(InputStream source, UpdateListener listener) {
mListener = listener;
GifDecoder decoder = new GifDecoder();
decoder.read(source);
// Iterate through the gif frames, add each as animation frame
for (int i = 0; i < decoder.getFrameCount(); i++) {
Bitmap bitmap = decoder.getFrame(i);
BitmapDrawable drawable = new BitmapDrawable(bitmap);
// Explicitly set the bounds in order for the frames to display
drawable.setBounds(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
addFrame(drawable, decoder.getDelay(i));
if (i == 0) {
// Also set the bounds for this container drawable
setBounds(0, 0, bitmap.getWidth(), bitmap.getHeight());
}
}
}
/**
* Naive method to proceed to next frame. Also notifies listener.
*/
public void nextFrame() {
mCurrentIndex = (mCurrentIndex + 1) % getNumberOfFrames();
if (mListener != null) mListener.update();
}
/**
* Return display duration for current frame
*/
public int getFrameDuration() {
return getDuration(mCurrentIndex);
}
/**
* Return drawable for current frame
*/
public Drawable getDrawable() {
return getFrame(mCurrentIndex);
}
/**
* Interface to notify listener to update/redraw
* Can't figure out how to invalidate the drawable (or span in which it sits) itself to force redraw
*/
public interface UpdateListener {
void update();
}
}
AnimatedImageSpan.java
public class AnimatedImageSpan extends DynamicDrawableSpan {
private Drawable mDrawable;
public AnimatedImageSpan(Drawable d) {
super();
mDrawable = d;
// Use handler for 'ticks' to proceed to next frame
final Handler mHandler = new Handler();
mHandler.post(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
((AnimatedGifDrawable)mDrawable).nextFrame();
// Set next with a delay depending on the duration for this frame
mHandler.postDelayed(this, ((AnimatedGifDrawable)mDrawable).getFrameDuration());
}
});
}
/*
* Return current frame from animated drawable. Also acts as replacement for super.getCachedDrawable(),
* since we can't cache the 'image' of an animated image.
*/
#Override
public Drawable getDrawable() {
return ((AnimatedGifDrawable)mDrawable).getDrawable();
}
/*
* Copy-paste of super.getSize(...) but use getDrawable() to get the image/frame to calculate the size,
* in stead of the cached drawable.
*/
#Override
public int getSize(Paint paint, CharSequence text, int start, int end, Paint.FontMetricsInt fm) {
Drawable d = getDrawable();
Rect rect = d.getBounds();
if (fm != null) {
fm.ascent = -rect.bottom;
fm.descent = 0;
fm.top = fm.ascent;
fm.bottom = 0;
}
return rect.right;
}
/*
* Copy-paste of super.draw(...) but use getDrawable() to get the image/frame to draw, in stead of
* the cached drawable.
*/
#Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas, CharSequence text, int start, int end, float x, int top, int y, int bottom, Paint paint) {
Drawable b = getDrawable();
canvas.save();
int transY = bottom - b.getBounds().bottom;
if (mVerticalAlignment == ALIGN_BASELINE) {
transY -= paint.getFontMetricsInt().descent;
}
canvas.translate(x, transY);
b.draw(canvas);
canvas.restore();
}
}
Usage:
final TextView gifTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.gif_textview);
SpannableStringBuilder sb = new SpannableStringBuilder();
sb.append("Text followed by animated gif: ");
String dummyText = "dummy";
sb.append(dummyText);
sb.setSpan(new AnimatedImageSpan(new AnimatedGifDrawable(getAssets().open("agif.gif"), new AnimatedGifDrawable.UpdateListener() {
#Override
public void update() {
gifTextView.postInvalidate();
}
})), sb.length() - dummyText.length(), sb.length(), Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
gifTextView.setText(sb);
As you can see I used a Handler to provide the 'ticks' to advance to the next frame. The advantage of this is that it will only fire off an update whenever a new frame should be rendered. The actual redrawing is done by invalidating the TextView which contains the AnimatedImageSpan. At the same time the drawback is that whenever you have a bunch of animated gifs in the same TextView (or multiple for that matter), the views might be updated like crazy... Use it wisely. :)
You can use ObjectAnimator to animate the drawable in the ImageSpan

Loooong time viewer, finally getting round to signing up here at StackOverflow!
After a very long time searching for a way to do a scrolling background of a ViewGroup in Android, I've developed the following:
public class SlidingDrawable extends Drawable implements Drawable.Callback {
private static final String TAG = "SlidingDraw";
private static float STEP_SIZE = 1.0f;
private BitmapDrawable mBitmap;
private Context mContext;
private float mPosX;
private int mBitmapWidth;
private Runnable mInvalidater;
private Handler mHandler;
public SlidingDrawable(Context c){
mContext = c;
// use this as the callback as we're implementing the interface
setCallback(this);
mHandler = new Handler();
mInvalidater = new Runnable(){
#Override
public void run(){
// decrement the drawables step size
mPosX -= SlidingDrawable.STEP_SIZE;
/*
* Check to see if the current position is at point where it should
* loop. If so, reset back to 0 to restart
*/
if(Math.abs(mPosX) >= mBitmapWidth) mPosX = 0;
// redraw
invalidateDrawable(null);
}
};
}
public static void setStepSize(float newSize){
SlidingDrawable.STEP_SIZE = newSize;
}
public void createBitmap(String path, ViewGroup parent){
// height of the parent container
int height = parent.getHeight();
/* Initialize local variables
* bgBitmap - the resulting bitmap to send into SlidingDrawable instance
* imageStream - raw bitmap data to be decoded into bgBitmap
*/
WindowManager wMgr = (WindowManager)mContext.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
int mScreenWidth = wMgr.getDefaultDisplay().getWidth();
InputStream imageStream;
Matrix imgMatrix = new Matrix();
Bitmap bitmap = null;
try {
imageStream = mContext.getAssets().open(path);
// create a temporary bitmap object for basic data
Bitmap temp = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(imageStream);
int width = temp.getWidth();
// find the width difference as a percentage to apply to the
// transformation matrix
float widthDifference = ((float)mScreenWidth) / (float)(width / 2);
imgMatrix.postScale(widthDifference, 0, 0f, 0f);
// create a copy of the bitmap, scaled correctly to maintain loop
bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(temp, (int)(width * widthDifference), height, true);
// recycle the temp bitmap
temp.recycle();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
mBitmap = new BitmapDrawable(bitmap);
// required
mBitmapWidth = getIntrinsicWidth() / 2;
Rect bounds = new Rect(0, 0, getIntrinsicWidth(), getIntrinsicHeight());
setBounds(bounds);
}
#Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawBitmap(mBitmap.getBitmap(), mPosX, 0f, null);
scheduleDrawable(this, mInvalidater, SystemClock.uptimeMillis());
}
#Override
public int getOpacity() {
return PixelFormat.OPAQUE;
}
#Override
public void scheduleDrawable(Drawable who, Runnable what, long when) {
mHandler.postAtTime(what, who, when);
}
#Override
public void unscheduleDrawable(Drawable who, Runnable what) {
mHandler.removeCallbacks(what, who);
}
#Override
public void invalidateDrawable(Drawable who) {
invalidateSelf();
}
/*
* Methods not directly used or called omitted
*
*/
}
It is used in the Activity like so:
#Override
public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean focus){
// set the background of the root view of main.xml
SlidingDrawable drawable = new SlidingDrawable(getApplicationContext());
drawable.createBitmap("bgimg/basebg.jpg", mRoot);
mRoot.setBackgroundDrawable(drawable);
}
Long story short, the basebg.jpg image is a tileable image roughly 1600x480. The constructor for SlidingDrawable scales and moves and yaddah yaddah. It works.
Now, the problem is, it seems really inefficient to do it like this. I can't seem to find much information on this sort of implementation, so I'm in the dark on where I can cut CPU cycles, or even if I'm using the method calls correctly.
My questions include:
Is it better to drawBitmap as opposed to using setTranslate() or postTranslate and draw the bitmap using a Matrix?
Is it better to use drawBitmap, or the canvas functions such as translate(), save(), and restore()?
What rate does the draw() method get called at, and is there a way to limit it to, say, 24 FPS o limit redraws?
What the heck is the "when" parameter of these sorts of things? Passing in SystemClock.uptimeMillis() is the only one that worked, and trying to delay it by adding a " + 100" or something to fire every 100ms just made it stutter.
I've researched this as much as I can... I'm leaving it to StackOverflow now :)
After some time with the drawing board, I simplified the functions down. Essentially, it was sending an invalidate() call on every SystemClock.uptimeMillis(), doing one redraw for each step change.
So, I removed the Drawable.Callback interface and passed the invalidateSelf() call directly from the Handler, removing the intermediary interface methods, which didn't seem to do anything special anyway.
There was a slight difference in the CPU usage using
drawBitmap(Bitmap source, int X, int Y, Paint p) vs.
drawBitmap(Bitmap source, Matrix matrix, Paint p), so I opted for the latter to save cycles.
New methods are as follows:
// Runnable
mInvalidater = new Runnable(){
#Override
public void run(){
// decrement the drawables step size
mPosX -= SlidingDrawable.STEP_SIZE;
if(Math.abs(mPosX) >= mBitmapWidth){
mPosX = 0;
mImageMatrix.setTranslate(0, 0);
}
mImageMatrix.postTranslate(-STEP_SIZE, 0);
SlidingDrawable.this.invalidateSelf();
}
};
// Draw method
#Override
public void draw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawBitmap(mBitmap.getBitmap(), mImageMatrix, null);
mHandler.postAtTime(mInvalidater, SystemClock.uptimeMillis() + 64);
}
I tested the battery results by unplugging the phone, running the application for around a minute, then opening the battery usage on my Moto Droid. Before, the battery usage surpassed the Display, now it sits comfortably below.
Angry Birds was also a benchmark, by running the opening screen (where the bg scrolls and the birds fly everywhere) for the same amount of time, in some cases my app sat below Angry Birds, but not always.
CPU usage was checked using the ADB shell command dumpsys cpuinfo as there seems to be a problem viewing CPU info on through the DDMS on devices running 2.2.
I'd still be up to hear other thoughts on this, but for now, it's solved.
