I have a SurfaceView that is covering a portion of its parent, a RelativeLayout. I have a background image covering the full RelativeLayout area, and this is my Activity's main layout.
I would like to have the SurfaceView be transparent so that I can see through to the background image on its parent RelativeLayout. I have tried the approach shown in the API Demos example TranslucentGLSurfaceViewActivity, but this succeeds in making the transparency go all the way through my Activity to my desktop! I'm using the "style/Theme.Translucent" theme on my activity, and setting this on my SurfaceView: mySurfaceView.getHolder().setFormat(PixelFormat.RGBA_8888); The transparency to the desktop it kinda cool, but not what I'm trying to do! Is it possible to make a SurfaceView transparent only through to its parent?
