Hello Kostya, I'm response to my previous question, I'll post how to solve it. It was quite easy, but I didn't realize it :P
Instead of setting the content view with: setContentView(new MyView(this)); I just instantiate the view with: myView = new MyView(this); setContentView(myView); Thus, I can access directly the methods from the View, like myView.invalidate(); Thanks!
