hi all android gurus, I recently started android programming and stuck on custom views I have seen a number of posts similar to me with some tips, suggestions etc but none worked for me....
heres my problem I have my main activity defined in main.xml which has got a button to display another activity which is something like <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"; android:orientation="vertical"> <View class="android.pvee.vm.animateview" android:id="@+id/ animateview01" android:layout_gravity="top" android:layout_weight="1" android:background="@drawable/vmquad" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"></View> <TableLayout android:id="@+id/TableLayout01" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent"> <TableRow android:id="@+id/TableRow01" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:gravity="center_horizontal"> <Button android:id="@+id/Button01" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Home"></Button> ... ... </TableRow> </TableLayout> </LinearLayout> in manifest file I declared above activity as <activity android:name=".<activity name>" /> and for the button click btnStart.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() { public void onClick (View v){ Intent animate = new Intent(v.getContext(), <activity name>.class); startActivityForResult(animate, 0); } I have custom view class animateview which overrides ondraw public class animateview extends View { public animateview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) { super(context, attrs); Log.i("animateview", "in constructor"); } /* @Override protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) { Log.i("animateview", "in on measure"); super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec); setMeasuredDimension(getMeasuredWidth(), getMeasuredHeight()); }*/ @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { Log.i("animateview", "in draw" + canvas.toString()); canvas.drawText("this is a test", 20, 10, null); } } but when this activity is called onDraw never called..or onMesure I have overridden onMeasure to set size but It didnt work... and I put log message in the constructor of this class - didnt work but when this activity is called the custom view background image is drawn by the layout which is set in above xml any tips would be greatly appreciated..I can post more details or code snippet if u want thanks in advance regards pvee -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
