Hello I need to create the following flow for my application:
1. Application is launched 2. Application shows a view for gathering data 3. View for gathering data disappears. This view is graphical in nature and only takes up the central part of the screen, and it is also transparent, so the previous contents of the screen are visible behind it and around it. 4. Some intensive computation takes place, that should take 0.1 - 1 seconds on a regular ARM 11 CPU. 5. Depending on the result of the computation one of two other views is shown. My issue: I don't want the view described at 3 to have any other graphical component of my application behind it. So i see two solutions: a. I implement a activity that shows the view at 3 as the first activity that appears when the application is launched. Problem: it will stay "frozen" for up to one second while the computation takes place. I don't want that because it makes the application feel unresponsive. Can i make the view invisible once it is done gathering data? b. I implement an invisible activity that launches another activity that implements the view at 3, and this second activity returns data to the first, that performs the computation and then launches other activities based on the result. In both cases i need to make a view invisible. I have tried various methods of doing that and none worked. Can anyone help? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
