You should be able to override onDraw, and draw the bitmap using something like:
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, matrix, paint) I haven't used drawBitmap with a matrix before, but you can check out some more info here: http://www.anddev.org/resize_and_rotate_image_-_example-t621.html You should be able to use a GestureDetector to control when it spins, etc. It might be easier to do this in OpenGL, but I think it's definitely possible with just Canvas if you're not familiar with OpenGL. Hope that helps. On Jul 5, 11:49 pm, ocdtrekkie <[email protected]> wrote: > Ah crud, now I feel fairly stupid. ;) People responded and I didn't > see it and posted a seperate request.
