Thanks for the quick reply, Mark. I'll have a look at that and get back.

I have had no problems with this, though I have been using View.GONE. Here is an (old) sample app that worked the last time I tried it: https://github.com/commonsguy/vidtry There are top and bottom panels that appear and disappear based on touch events, with a SurfaceView underneath for playing back a streaming video.

Here's what I do. The layout doesn't specify visibility, so it gets the default visibility of "VISIBLE". The layout looks like this: FrameLayout { SurfaceView // background LinearLayout { View // button View // button View // button } } In code, just after I setContentView( myframe ) in my Activity's constructor, I get the views for the three buttons and setVisibility( View.INVISIBLE ) on them. So far, this part works. If I don't setVisibility( View.INVISIBLE ) I can see the three views right where they are supposed to be, and when I setVisibility( View.INVISIBLE ) I can't see them. So far so good. Ok, so I do some work and now I want to see those buttons again. So I go in and setVisibility( View.VISIBLE ) on them. They don't show up. I've tried calling invalidate() on the views, bringToFront(). Seems like once they are hidden I can't bring them back. Anyone have any ideas why this wouldn't be working? I should note that the background view is a GLSurfaceView, but I don't think that should cause any problems, should it?
