but i get the same error if i just pick a potion of the screen
screenshot = Bitmap.createBitmap(mView.getDrawingCache(),
100,100,100,100);
or try to pass it exact size
screenshot = Bitmap.createBitmap(mView.getDrawingCache(),
mView.getLeft(), mView.getTop(),
mView.getMeasuredWidth(), mView.getMeasuredHeight());
any suggestions?
