Thanks Paul.....As u said, the following code works well . But it
looks like a custom view , i cant see the textview itself. I have set
the ContentView to main.XML only but still the views in the main.XML r
not seen. am getting an output were i can see only the given string
rotated -90 degrees in the specified location. i want this rotation of
the string to happen inside the textview and the other components in
the main.xml has to be displayed.....do i have to change anything in
this code And if i want to add an ImageView next to this textview
( linear layout is horizontal orientation)
wat i should do. Please do help me........
public class textrotate extends Activity {
DemoView dview;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
dview= new DemoView(this);
setContentView(dview);
// rotateText("FACEBOOK");
}
private class DemoView extends TextView{
public DemoView(Context context) {
super(context);
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas){
super.onDraw(canvas);
// x increases from left to right
// y increases from top to bottom
canvas.save();
//int x=0;
//int y=0;
Paint paint= new Paint();
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL);
paint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
//x=30;
//y=400;
paint.setTextSize(40);
String str2Rotate = "FACEBOOK";
float py = this.getHeight();
float px = this.getWidth()/8.0f;
//canvas.rotate(180, px, py);
canvas.rotate(-90, px,py);
canvas.drawText(str2Rotate, px, py, paint);
canvas.restore();
}
}
}
