@Mark I care because something needs to be drawn if the onDraw method is being called. If there are no actual changes to the view, then this is a waste of resources (probably unnoticeable) and I need to deal with this case specifically, which complicates my application logic a little (here though it is probably my fault - not a perfect design).
@skink You are right, there is an issue with the layout, but while I can get it to work and not have onDraw called every second, the views are not displayed as I want to. I will play around with this layout issue some more and see if I can get a fix. Beside all this, I do find it unnecessary; characters representing numbers from 0 to 9 have the same height, so the layout height (which is set to wrap_content) should not change.
