I'm fairly new to Android development and Java (I come from a Windows and Windows Mobile background, using C# and .NET), so I hope this is the correct group to post this question! :)
I am creating a board game (similar to Checkers), and I am using the Snake game from the API Samples as a starting point / general framework. I like the TileView as it gives me a good grid to work with, and I am extending it just like the Snake example does with SnakeView. My problem is that I want to make the board bigger than the screen, and I want the user to be able to move the board around by dragging and flicking it with their finger. I enclosed my SkyGame view (which extends TileView) in a ScrollView, but did not get the expected results. The ScrollView didn't let me scroll the SkyGame (TileView) around at all with my finger. Here's my code for my SkyGame.xml: ............................... <FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@color/d_sky_blue"> <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android" android:layout_width="200px" android:layout_height="200px" android:scrollbars="none" android:background="@color/d_sky_blue"> <com.spacetornado.skytime.SkyGame android:id="@+id/skytime_view" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" /> </ScrollView> <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" > <!-- ... (other views not related to the board go here) ---> </RelativeLayout> </FrameLayout> ................................................................ The SkyGame / skytime_view is 300x300 in size (12x12 tile grid, each tile is 25px square)... so it should be bigger than the 200x200 ScrollView? Am I going about this the wrong way? Is there a better way to do this? Basically my board is too big for the screen, and I want a good way for users to be able to manipulate the board and move it around easily so they can quickly see whatever part of it they want. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
