Hello, I'm passing a bitmap through a bundle to an activity which I called cameraView on which the user has access to the camera of the device. I'd like to overlay that bitmap with transparency using the camera as the background. Is it possible? to put the bitmap in front of the camera? And how can I change the transparency level?
Thank you very much Here is my code: This is the camview.xml: <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical"> <SurfaceView android:id="@+id/surface_camera" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="10dip" android:layout_weight="1"> </SurfaceView> </RelativeLayout> ----------------- And this is the java: public class cameraView extends Activity implements SurfaceHolder.Callback{ SurfaceView mSurfaceView; SurfaceHolder mSurfaceHolder; Camera mCamera; boolean mPreviewRunning=false; private Context mContext = this; public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) { super.onCreate(icicle); setContentView(R.layout.camview); Bundle f = getIntent().getExtras(); picture = f.getParcelable("bitmap"); mSurfaceView = (SurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.surface_camera); mSurfaceHolder = mSurfaceView.getHolder(); mSurfaceHolder.addCallback(this); mSurfaceHolder.setType(SurfaceHolder.SURFACE_TYPE_PUSH_BUFFERS); } @Override // Create the Surface and Open the Camera public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) { mCamera = Camera.open(); } @Override // Reacts for camera changes public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format, int w,int h) { if (mPreviewRunning) { mCamera.stopPreview(); } Camera.Parameters p = mCamera.getParameters(); p.setPreviewSize(w, h); mCamera.setParameters(p); try { mCamera.setPreviewDisplay(holder); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } mCamera.startPreview(); mPreviewRunning = true; } @Override // When the camera is closed public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) { mCamera.stopPreview(); mPreviewRunning = false; mCamera.release(); } // When the picure is taken. This method gives the byte[] of the picture Camera.PictureCallback mPictureCallback = new Camera.PictureCallback() { public void onPictureTaken(byte[] imageData, Camera c) { } }; } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
