I'm still facing a difficulty to project a list of geological positions to pixels. I have a custom view (derived from SurvaceView) for simply painting the coordinates.
My code:
x = (int) sView.getHeight() * ( (pos.getLat() - minLat) / (maxLat - minLat)) + margin;
...
myPoints.add(new Point(x,y));
onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
for (Point p : myPoints) {
canvas.drawPoint(p.x, p.y, myPaint);
}
.... doesn't fit the entire view. I am becoming desperate. Do you have a idea?
Thanks
It's a bit unclear what you want.
But if I understand you correctly, you want to plot a set of GPS-coordinates to a bitmap, and you want the resulting plot to fit the size of the bitmap.
If so, I suggest going for the following strategy:
Find the minimum and maximum latitudes and longitudes, MinLon, MaxLon, MinLat and MaxLat.
Subtract the minimum values from all the points (rebasing the data set to (0,0)).
Find the horizontal scale factor: ScaleX := (MyBitmap.Width) / (MaxLat - MinLat)
Find the vertical scale factor: ScaleY := (MyBitmap.Height) / (MaxLon - MinLon)
Loop through all the points in your dataset, and apply the lowest scale factor of ScaleX and ScaleY.
You will then have a set of points with coordinates that can be plotted to your bitmap.
It will not be a cartographically correct projection, but it'll probably serve a starting point, at least.

Render labels in circular path and aligned center to the width of the arc,
Intially, i have tried by point on the circle formula to position the label as below,
label_X_Position = (float) (centreX) - (labelRadius ) * Math.sin(angleForLabel));
label_Y_Position = (float) ((centreY) + (labelRadius) * Math.cos(angleForLabel));
canvas.drawText(String.valueOf(labelText), (float) label_X_Position, (float) label_Y_Position, paint);
but when the length of the label value increased it doesn't looks like circular path. For better understanding i have attached a diagramatic representation for my requirment,
in the above image, while placing the value 100000 as per existing implementation, the text value will start from the arc. I need that to be shared based on its length.
I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm making an image manipulation app, and I found I needed a better way to load in large images.
My plan, is to iterate through "hypothetical" pixels of an image (a "for loop" that covers width/height of the base image, so each iteration represents a pixel), scale/translate/rotate that pixels position relative to the view, then use this information to determine which pixels are being displayed in the view itself, then use a combination of BitmapRegionDecoder and BitmapFactory.Options to load in only the section of image that the output actually needs rather than a full (even if scaled) image.
So far I seem to have covered scale of the image and translation properly, but I can't seem to figure out how to calculate rotation. Since it's not a real Bitmap pixel I can't use Matrix.rotate =( Here is the image translations in the onDraw of the view, imgPosX and imgPosY hold the center point of the image:
m.setTranslate(-userImage.getWidth() / 2.0f, -userImage.getHeight() / 2.0f);
m.postScale(curScale, curScale);
m.postRotate(angle);
m.postTranslate(imgPosX, imgPosY);
mCanvas.drawBitmap(userImage.get(), m, paint);
and here is the math so far of how I'm trying to determine if an images pixel is on the screen:
for(int j = 0;j < imageHeight;j++) {
for(int i = 0;i < imageWidth;i++) {
//image starts completely center in view, assume image is original size for simplicity
//this is the original starting position for each pixel
int x = Math.round(((float) viewSizeWidth / 2.0f) - ((float) newImageWidth / 2.0f) + i);
int y = Math.round(((float) viewSizeHeight / 2.0f) - ((float) newImageHeight / 2.0f) + j);
//first we scale the pixel here, easy operation
x = Math.round(x * imageScale);
y = Math.round(y * imageScale);
//now we translate, we do this by determining how many pixels
//our images x/y coordinates have differed from it's original
//starting point, imgPosX and imgPosY in the view start in center
//of view
x = x + Math.round((imgPosX - ((float) viewSizeWidth / 2.0f)));
y = y + Math.round((imgPosY - ((float) viewSizeHeight / 2.0f)));
//TODO need rotation here
}
}
so, assuming my math up until rotation is correct (probably not but it appears to be working so far), how would I then calculate the rotation from that pixels position? I've tried other similar questions like:
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
without using rotation the pixels I expect to actually be on the screen are represented (I made text file that outputs the results in 1's and 0's so I can have a visual representation of whats on the screen), but with the formula found in those questions the information isn't what is expected. (Scenario: I've rotated an image so only the top left corner is visible in the view. Using the info from Here to rotate the pixel, I should expect to see a triangular set of 1's in the upper left corner of the output file, but that's not the case)
So, how would I calculate a a pixels position after rotation without using the Android matrix? But still get the same results.
And if I've just messed it up entirely my apologies =( Any help would be appreciated, this project has gone on for so long and I want to finally be done lol
If you need any more information I will provide as much as I possibly can =) Thank you for your time
I realize this question is particularly difficult so I will be posting a bounty as soon as SO allows.
You do not need to create your own Matrix, use the existing one.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Matrix.html
You can map bitmap coordinates to screen coordinates by using
float[] coords = {x, y};
m.mapPoints(coords);
float sx = coords[0];
float sy = coords[1];
If you want to map screen to bitmap coordinates, you can create the inverse matrix
Matrix inverse = new Matrix(m);
inverse.inverse();
inverse.mapPoints(...)
I think your overall approach is going to be slow, as doing the pixel manipulation on the CU from Java has a lot of overhead. When drawing bitmaps normally, the pixel manipulation is done on the GPU.
I want to move an object on a circle around a given point. I am using OpenGL on Android and my viewport is the screen resolution in landscape mode (1280 * 800). The point I want to rotate an object around is e.g (500, 300) and this is where the user pressed. I also have the radius of the desired circle r.
To sum it up, I've the center of the circle, the radius, and the angle (amount I want to move the object with each iteration of the game loop)
So far I tried this:
this.setPosX(((float)Math.cos(angle)*radius + center.x) * width);
this.setPosY(((float)Math.sin(angle)*radius + center.y) * height);
This will create a movement along an ellipsis, not a circle...
Can anyone please help me?
It produces an ellipse cause circles DON'T have heights. Try this instead
this.setPosX(((float)Math.cos(angle)*radius ) + center.x);
this.setPosY(((float)Math.sin(angle)*radius ) +center.y);
Just remove the width and height factors at the end. If you want a circle you cannot multiply the coordinates with different factors.
The formula is not correct because you are multiplying the correct value for a point around a circle by other different values which are not meaningful.
Think about the fact that you have c(x,y) which is the center and you need to move around by a value which is given by r(cos(angle)*radius, sin(angle)*radius).
What you obtain is p(x + cos(angle)*radius, y + sin(angle)*radius).
If you multiply these two coordinates by two other values (width and height in your formula) you are changing the factor either for the circle either for the center so you end up with not only an ellipse but an ellipse which changes its center.
So:
circle: p(c.x + cos(angle)*r, y + sin(angle)*r)
ellipse: p(c.x + cos(angle)*w, y + sin(angle)*h)
your formula: p((c.x + cos(angle)*r)*w, (c.y + sin(angle)*r)*h) (which makes no sense)
i want to calculate how many pixels there are between 2 points on my screen.
I've seen that i can draw a straight line between 2 points using Path class, but i don't really want to draw that line, i only want to know how long is it in pixels..
i really need it for my MapView clusters implementation..
i can get each marker position on screen with no problem, but don't know how to calculate pixel's "distance" between them ...
i know that there are cluster's implementations available but i want to try and create one of my own
help will be appreciated :)
This is very straightforward using a bit of algebra :)
Take the co-ordinates of both points and calculate the difference between their x and y values e.g.
dx = p1.x - p2.x;
dy = p1.y - p2.y;
distance = Math.sqrt( (dx * dx) + (dy * dy) );
Where p1 and p2 are the points you want get find the distance between, and distance is the result. It will be a double but you can round it to the nearest int if you wish
I am working on my first "real" Android application, a graphical workflow editor. The drawing is done in a custom class, that is a subclass of View.At the moment my elements are rectangles, which are drawn on a canvas. To detect actions on elements I compare the coordinates and check for elements on the touch location.
To implement a zoom gesture I tried http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2010/06/making-sense-of-multitouch.html
With the 4 argument canvas.scale(...) function the centered zooming works well, but I lose the ability to calculate the canvas coordinates using the offset with mPosX and mPosY to detect if the touch after a zoom is on an element.
I tried to change the example in the blogpost above to center the canvas on the zoom gesture with:
canvas.save();
canvas.translate(mPosX, mPosY);
canvas.scale(mScaleFactor, mScaleFactor, mScalePivotX, mScalePivotY);
//drawing ....
canvas.restore();
I did not find any examples on how this could be done without losing the reference offset to calculate the coordinates. Is there an easy workaround? I tried to calculate the offset with the gesture center and the scaling factor, but failed :/
I have seen that other examples which use an ImageView often use a Matrix to transform the image. Could this be done with a custom View and a Canvas? If yes, how can I get the x and y offset to check the coordinates?
Also, if my ideas are completely wrong, I would be very happy to see some examples on how this is done properly.
Thx! ;)
Perhaps the following code will help you to calculate coordinates with the gesture center and the scaling factor. I use this method in my class representing opengl-sprite.
void zoom(float scale, PointF midPoint) {
if (zoomFactor == MAX_ZOOM_FACTOR && scale > 1) return;
if (zoomFactor == MIN_ZOOM_FACTOR && scale < 1) return;
zoomFactor *= scale;
x = (x - midPoint.x) * scale + midPoint.x;
y = (y - height + midPoint.y) * scale + height - midPoint.y;
if (zoomFactor >= MAX_ZOOM_FACTOR) {
zoomFactor = MAX_ZOOM_FACTOR;
} else if (zoomFactor < MIN_ZOOM_FACTOR) {
zoomFactor = MIN_ZOOM_FACTOR;
x = 0;
y = 0;
}
}
X and Y coordinates are processed in different ways, because of distinction between directions of opengl coordinate system (right and up) and midPoint's coordinate system (right and down). midPoint is taken from MotionEvents coordinates.
All other operations are understandable, i think.
Hope it will help you.
