[android-developers] Re: Drawing a line dynamically in code
No you can't. What you are doing is right. If I understand correctly, you want to use the draw method to draw a line, am I correct? -Kumar Bibek http://techdroid.kbeanie.com On Sep 22, 5:53 pm, Kevin Courtney kevinjcourt...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, This seems like a basic question but I’ve been struggling with it and need another set of eyes to set me straight.

[android-developers] Re: Drawing a line dynamically in code
I'm not entirely sure if it's the draw method that I should be using..at this point I'm looking for any suggestions... ...I need to draw a line on the on this view using code. The rest of the story is that this code is inside a loop that is reading records and putting their info on the view. In between each record I want to draw a simple line.

[android-developers] Re: Drawing a line dynamically in code
If you are using a ListView, that is fairly simple. Else, You have two options... 1. Use Imageview as you are doing, if you dont want a Custom View class. 2. Use a custom view class that draws everything, which is more difficult. -Kumar Bibek http://techdroid.kbeanie.com On Sep 22, 9:35 pm, Kevin Courtney kevinjcourt...@gmail.com wrote: I'm not entirely sure if it's the draw method that I should be using..at this point I'm looking for any suggestions... ...I need to draw a line on the on this view using code.
