you also might need to toggle your numlock button.

 Hi folks,

 Is it possible to change the emulator's view to landscape?

 Thanks in advance.

[android-beginners] Re: Manipulate 2D View in 3D OpenGL

2008-10-11 Thread Esteem

Enkin's (http://www.enkin.net/) landscape mode does this. I'm not
sure what method is used or anything but its possible.

But check out the PolyToPoly API Graphics demo which shows how to
transform a canvas to make it look 3D without opengl. I havnt really
looked over MapView to see if this method is possible, but if it can
be applied to MapView, i think it would do the trick.

 Hi,
     Is there a way to take the frame from a view, such as the MapView,
 and manipulate it in 3D with OpenGL.  For example, I have a MapView
 which shows a particular location and I want to treat this as a 2D
 plane in 3D so that I can rotate the plane along the y or x axis.
     Right now I have no idea how to approach this problem.  My initial
 idea is to somehow render the output from MapView to a texture, and
 then render that texture to the screen using OpenGL.

 I got the idea from looking at the app Marvin, where the MapView looks
 like a plane receding into the horizon.

check out 3:10-3:20 of their video. I dont think thats street view.
Also 5:35-6:00 where they specifically show driving directions in a 3D
landscape mode :)

 actually they are using the street view and I think this means it is
 only possible were street view can be used.
