Hi, I'm pretty new to the whole app developing scene and i've never coded in Java before, however it doesn't seem that different to c# so I figured i'd give it a go.
I've been making reasonable process on the app I'm working on, I've figured out using the main.xml to create a relative layout for my UI. In the UI I've managed to create an imageview that i've been able to update to scroll through a bunch of images by pressing a button. Pretty simple stuff so far. Now, here comes my problem. I want to create an area seperate of this imageview that will also display a background image, and then, multiple images atop that background image at specific locations. I will eventually want these images to be clickable. >From reading many an article it seems that the way to display an image at a specific location and do all sorts of fancy stuff with it is by using a canvas. but this doesnt appear to be a valid viewtype in the layout xml. I found a basic tutorial that created a drawview class, which I managed to work in, but it only allows me to have either that layout, or the one in my xml file. I've tried inserting this class into my main.xml by following this tut http://www.anddev.org/creating_custom_views_-_the_togglebutton-t310.html but it doesnt seem to work. I think i'm probably overcomplicating the issue, but if anyone could point me at some resources that could show me how to acheive this, or could offer any help on it, I would be most appreciative. In Summary :- I have a ui layout that I want to use. I want to add in a canvas area in this layout (can't figure out how) with the canvas I want to be able to place multiple images at specific locations I want these images to be clickable. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
