Hey Tim, just a quicky regarding the fading out: An alarm seems a bit heavy handed. You can use http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#postDelayed(java.lang.Runnable,%20long)to post a Runnable that does the fading out for you.
I found that idea in the Camera application's image view, where you can also see how they deal with zoom controls, unfortunately in a complicated fashion: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Camera.git;a=blob;f=src/com/android/camera/ViewImage.java;h=4b9eb58da8df25553c026bb12e0c5e38ebb37720;hb=release-1.0 Cheers, Mariano > Fading out upon no user action. OK... set an alarm and so on. > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
