It seems like using FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND makes an activity extremely slow - every redraw takes forever, even when just editing an EditText. It almost sounds like the blur effect is being redone on the entire screen in software (actually, even that couldn't possibly be that slow with a normal blur kernel).
Is that specific to the Droid? Or the OS? It seems to happen on both 2.0.1 and 2.1. FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND is lightning fast on a puny G1 with 1.1/1.5/1.6, so it sounds like it's using a GL extension that's not supported on the Droid, or something similar. Are there any known work- arounds, or is there any word about a fix? I've seen source codes that check for the OS version and do not set FLAG_BLUR_BEHIND if something => Eclair is detected, which sounds hacky. If anything, it would be nice to see what exactly is missing here (GL extension?), and check for that instead. -Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
