 The only way I know to make a view scroll both horizontally and
 vertically is to have nested views like have a ScrollView inside a
 HorizontalScrollView. But, in this way I cannot scroll diagonally and
 it always has to move in a vertical-horizontal or
 horizontal-vertical direction.

 Thank you,Ajay

  Hi,
      I read some tutorial about loading a MapView in your own activity.
  The Google maps is a beautiful application that scrolls in any
  direction the user moves around. I want to develop a similar
  application, that could scroll in any direction, but the difference
  being it has to display it's own UI.

  Is this possible? If yes, then how?

  Thank you,
 Ajay

There is no built-in widget that can scroll diagonally.

Draw on the Canvas, using the techniques used by games for rendering a
portion of a large map on the screen and allowing scrolling in whatever
directions the larger map supports.
