Android :: Convert A View To Bitmap Without Displaying It In Droid?
May 10, 2010
I will try to explain what exactly I need to do.
I have 3 separate screens say A,B,C. There is another screen called say HomeScreen where all the 3 screens bitmap should be displayed in Gallery view and the user can select in which view does he wants to go.
I have been able to get the Bitmaps of all the 3 screens and display it in Gallery view by placing all the code in HomeScreen Activity only. Now, this has complicated the code a lot and I will like to simplify it.
So, can I call another Activity from HomeScreen and do not display it and just get the Bitmap of that screen. For example, say I just call HomeScreen and it calls Activity A,B,C and none of the Activities from A,B,C are displayed. It just gives the Bitmap of that screen by getDrawingCache(). And then we can display those bitmaps in Gallery view in HomeScreen.
I hope I have explained the problem very clearly.
Please let me know if this is actually possible.

I'm trying to convert my LinearLayout to a bitmap so that I can save the current layout content as an image in SD card. First, I create bitmap and canvas and attach the layout to the canvas.
Followed steps from http://www.brighthub.com/mobile/google-android/articles/30676.aspx#comments.
Code to add child view into layout before creating bitmap:
CODE:............
When I press the save button, it should save the current layout as an image to SD card.
Here are my steps:
CODE:...............
It can create folder in SD card but no file created under this folder. It always gives me FileNotFoundException. I'm not sure it is the file creating problem or the screenBitmap problem.

I am new to this site, and I come with a question about Android.
Is there any way to convert a Bitmap to grayscale? I know how to draw a grayscale bitmap (using canvas operations: http://www.mail-archive.com/android-developers@googlegroups.com/msg38890.html) but I really need The actual bitmap in gray colors (or at least something that could be converted to a bitmap later on).
Do I have to implement it by hand (pixel by pixel operations)?
I've searched a lot, and still could not find. Anyone knows a easy/efficient way to do it?

I am trying to figure out how to do conversion of Picture object generated by web View to Bitmap for later JPEG encoding and saving to local f/s. I tried to create a bitmap from pre created Picture object by BitmapFactory.decode Stream and failed. Seems like Picture object is unrecognized format by Bitmap factory. Just wondering is there any method to do the conversion?

I have a custom view which is drawing some bitmaps on screen. I want to scale the bitmaps depending on some sensor data. Can anyone suggest to me the best way (performance wise) to scale the bitmaps.
Right now I'm creating the bitmaps in the constructor of the view but if I start to scale it in the onDraw method I believe I'll just be re-drawing the bitmaps (Which will be a memory / cpu hog).

I'm trying to create a MapView in a service (live wallpaper), but have it hidden so that I can render it to a Bitmap, and then map it to a texture to render in opengl. I have a Canvas and a Bitmap, and I intended to call myMap.draw(myCanvas) in order to get it into the correct bitmap so that I could then bind it as a texture.
When I Initialize I do the following:
myMap = new MapView(ctx, APPSTATICS.MAP_API_KEY);
I get an error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: stub at com.google.android.maps.MapView.<init> (Unknown Source)
Why I can't create a new mapview which I can use to draw to a offscreen bitmap?

I have an ImageView that contains a bitmap. Now the bitmap can change size within a known range. This makes the surrounding views to relocate which I want to prevent. I've tried setting margins and padding for the ImageView but without success.

I've got a custom view in which I need to draw two bitmaps, one is a background, representing the image of a map and one is a pin which will be drawn on top/left position in canvas.
The both images are drawn onDraw and remain the same during the live of the activity that contains the view. After a while I get a OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds
VM budget
This means that I have a leak and the bitmaps don't get garbage collected. I asked this question before, but now the situation changed a little. I made a init method where I set the bitmaps I want to use but this still isn't a good approach, the error appears later, but still there.
Here is the code:
public class MyMapView extends View
private int xPos = 0;
private int yPos = 0;
private int space = 0;
private Bitmap resizedBitmap;
private Bitmap position;
private Bitmap mapBitmap;
public void destroy()
resizedBitmap.recycle();
resizedBitmap=null;
position.recycle();
position=null;
mapBitmap.recycle();
mapBitmap=null;
I call the setMapBitmap() and init() on onCreate of the activity that contains the view. In there I know what bitmap will be used as map. onPause of the activity I call the destroy() of the view. I still get errors.
I've read this this but I don't know how to adapt it on my case
I AM OPEN TO ANY OTHER SOLUTION. Please note that I need to resize the map bitmap (based on the height of the layout that contains it in mai activity) and still be able to draw the position on correct place.

I have a very large image and I only want to display a section the size of the display (no scaling), and the section should just be the center of the image. Because the image is very large I cannot read the entire image into memory and then crop it. This is what I have so far but it will give OutOfMemory for large images. Also I don't think inSampleSize applies because I want to crop the image, not lower the resolution.
Uri data = getIntent().getData();
Input Stream is = getContentResolver().openInputStream(data);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is, null, null);
Any help would be great?

I am 1) taking a picture and 2) then draw another Bitmap on top of it 3) then I store it
I am doing it as follows and it works on the emulator.
On the device I get a OutOfMemoryError: bitmap size exceeds VM budget android.graphics.Bitmap.nativeCopy(Native Method) android.graphics.Bitmap.copy(Bitmap.java:199) in the line copy the Bitmap to get a mutable Bitmap.
CODE:...........
What I am asking:
a) Is there a better way to do what I am doing? 1) take a picture 2) draw another Bitmap on top of it 3) then I store it
b) What is the best way to create a mutable Bitmap from the picture I just took with the camera?
In my app, resolution is not an issue. If it works better for small photos that would be fine.

So I'm loading images from a web service, but the size of the images are sometimes smaller or bigger than other images and the visualization looks silly when I put them in a ListView in android. I'd like to fix the size of my ImageView so that it only shows a portion of the image if it's larger than a preset amount. I've tried everything I can think of setting the setMaxWidth/setMaxHeight, setting the scale type to centerCrop, using ClipableDrawable wrapping my BitmapDrawable, setting using Drawable.setBounds(). I've tried setting in the XML and programmatically, but neither worked. I'm very surprised setting max width/height didn't do anything. Below is the XML I'm using ImageView definition in my layout file

I have two questions actually:
Is it better to draw an image on a bitmap or create a bitmap as resource and then draw it over a bitmap? Performance wise... which one is better?
If I want to draw something transparent over a bitmap, how would I go about doing it?
If I want to overlay one transparent bitmap over another, how would I do it?

My goal is the draw a bitmap onto another bitmap but rotated 90 degress. whats the most efficient way to do that. My current method is as follows which is horribly bad because it creates a new bitmap every time.
