Sep 22, 2010I am trying to merge two examples from the ApiDemos so one overlay over the other. 1. CameraPreview.java 2.

Can someone points me toward the light (figuratively speaking)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid : Transparent Background Overlay Of SurfaceView Broken On 1.5?
Jun 17, 2009I believe I have found a graphics bug introduced in the 1.5 platform. I'm looking for some confirmation (or a description of what I'm doing wrong) before reporting it as a real bug.
I have a SurfaceView that fills the screen and on top of that I have a LinearLayout that wraps some other components that overlay the surface. These other components are not visible most of the time, and the LinearLayout has a transparent background so that the SurfaceView is unobstructed until the other components are made visible. Under 1.0 and 1.1 this all worked with a background of #00000000 for the LinearLayout. Now under 1.5 there is a black rectangle obstructing my surface unless I give the LinearLayout background some color. I can still keep the transparency so it is still invisible as it should be but it is strange that it can't be black and invisible anymore. My layout is below. The background of #00000001 works, but changing it to #00000000 results in a black rectangle. code...
Android :: Differences And Advantages Of SurfaceView Vs GLSurfaceView On Android
Aug 2, 2010I'm currently playing around with 2D graphics in android and have been using a plain old SurfaceView to draw Drawables and Bitmaps to the screen. This has been working alright, but there's a little stutter in the sprite movement, and I'm wondering the feasibility to do a real time (but not terrible fast) game with this.
I know GLSurfaceView exists which uses OpenGL, but I'm curious as to the extent to which this makes a difference. Is a plain SurfaceView hardware accelerated, or do I need to use OpenGL? What type of speed difference could I expect from switching to OpenGL, and how much altering of code would it require to switch (the game logic is all in a separate object that provides an ordered array of drawables to the SurfaceView)?
Android :: SurfaceView Vs Custom View / SurfaceView Is Slower
Aug 20, 2010One using a Surfaceview, and the other using a custom view. According to the android SDK development guide, using a surface view is better because you can spawn a separate thread to handle graphics. Th SDK development guide claims that using a custom view with invalidate calls is only good for slower animations, less intense graphics.However, in my simple app, I can clearly see that using a custom view with calls to invalidate seems to render faster.What do you guys know/think about this?My touchEvent code is exactly the same, and my drawing code is exactly the same. The only difference is that one is all in the UI thread, and the other is using a tread to handle the drawing.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: GLSurfaceView And Key Presses
Nov 30, 2009Following the samples and examples, I've successfully been able to load a model on screen and rotate it with the DPAD keys and overriding the onKeyDown method of the GLSurfaceView. Trying to use a letter though, causes a small box to appear at the bottom accepting the text that is being typed. What I'm not entirely clear on, is since I don't have a listener defined in the main Activity, why those key letter key presses are being intercepted by some other inherent listener(?). I setup an OnKeyListener for the view to call my own method and that does work... but I'm wondering if there is perhaps a better way to handle it.

Sep 3, 2010I am a lazybones using GLSurfaceView and loving it. But now that my code is running too darn fast (heh), I would like to slow it down via setting eglSwapInterval to 2 or something. Just to be nice to the battery. But, being a lazybones, I can find no way of doing this when using GLSurfaceView. (and hacking an early return from onDrawFrame() was very unsatisfying).

View 12 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Deadlock In GLSurfaceView
Jul 27, 2009We are developing an application that uses a GLSurfaceView to display 3D objects. We regularly get the "Application Not Responding" dialog. Inspection of the dumped threads reveals something that looks suspiciously like a deadlock. I have added the three thread dumps involved below. The first thread is the main application event thread, and it is waiting on a join with a GLThread.
The second thread is a brand new GLThread that is waiting for a semaphore lock presumably so it knows it has exclusive access to the graphics hardware. The third thread is probably a previous GLThread (the one the main thread is waiting for to finish), that is waiting to be notified. The strange thing is that the main application thread has just done a "mDone=true; notify();" prior to calling "wait()", so the third thread should have been awaken? .........................
Android :: Screen Flickering In GLSurfaceView
Mar 18, 2010I'm using GLSurfaceView to create a simple OpenGL drawing application. Since the elements drawn in each frame must remain on screen in order to be composed into the whole drawing, I don't use gl.glClear(GL10.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT) at the beginning of each frame. But not clearing the color buffer leads to substantial flickering. Is there any way to eliminate flickering while still not clearing the screen at the beginning of each frame?

Android :: Draw GLSurfaceView To A Bitmap
Nov 4, 2009I have an application that uses GLSurfaceView to draw OpenGL ES graphics. This is all working (mostly) how I would expect.
Now, I would like to implement a screenshot feature. For normal views, it seems that the standard practice is to create a new Canvas with a Bitmap and then draw to that Canvas using View.onDraw(Canvas).
I've tried using SurfaceView.draw(Canvas) in a similar fashion, but it always results in a blank (black) image.
I've also tried using the drawing cache with the exact same result.

Android : Prevent GLSurfaceView Destruction
Mar 5, 2010I am currently porting a 3D app on Android. This app consists of a 3D view (embedded in a GLSurfaceView) and of menu screens (for settings, search , etc.).
My main activity is the one containing the GLSurfaceView. It's always the root of it's task. The problem is that my GLSurface gets destroyed whenever I launch another activity and all the GL objects (VBOs, textures) that I created in the GL context get deleted/invalidated along. So whenever my users go in the menu, the 3D scene has to be fully reloaded. Wouldn't there be a way to prevent the surface's destruction ?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Can't Destroy GLSurfaceView For Exit Activity
Dec 2, 2009what puzzle me so much is that i can't destroy a GLSurfaceView while i don't want to exit the activity.
the fact is when i destroy a GLSurfaceView which had show in the screen (that means it has binded to the activity's SurfaceHolder), the activity exits without any prompting. Perhaps ,the Context which provided in the Construction of GLSurfaceView joins the two things together. so my conclusion is that a GLSurfaceView can only be destroyed when exit the activity. is there anyway to destroy a GLSurfaceView without exit activity? is there someone can provide a clue?

View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Emulator Bug Drawing Lines On GLSurfaceView
Aug 14, 2010The Emulator draws line widths VERY incorrectly in OpenGL (GLSurfaceView). See http://www.flickr.com/photos/53002505@N03 for a comparison of the lines drawn correctly (in JOGL) and incorrectly in the emulator. The code also draws correctly on a real device (G1) - looks just like the JOGL screen shot. I believe this is a bug. However, I'm not an OpenGL GURU. Hence I have posted a concise version of the code to demonstrate this problem at at http://gist.github.com/523955 and http://gist.github.com/523961. I hope I am proven wrong about a bug in the emulator, and can find a way to use the emulator for what I want to do.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: GLSurfaceView Swaps 2D Bitmaps Being Drawn / Cause Of This Can Be?
Sep 8, 2010I have an application that receives information from a database, and is used to visualize 2D bitmaps onto a GLSurfaceView. The information received will determine the x-position of the bitmap, and which bitmap image to use (there are 4 different bitmaps in my res folder to choose from).
Below are the three classes that are being used. The Activity sets the Shapes objects that need to be drawn by passing an ArrayList to the GLLayer class. This ArrayList is passed to the instance of ShapeStorage class via another setList method. This class is responsible for drawing when they are received.
The problem that I'm having is the following. Suppose I receive one object (let's say that it's a square at it's located at x=1). Some time goes by, and I receive another shape (this time, it's a triangle, and it's located at x=-1). However, when this new shape appears on the screen, the old bitmap's appearance changes to a triangle, and the new one becomes a square. In other words, the objects themselves are at the correct position that they are supposed to be at, but the bitmap being associated with them has changed. Does anyone know what the possible cause of this can be? I'm still a newbie to OpenGL-ES, and while this code looks very convoluted, it just involves setting a bunch of various properties for the View. code...
Android :: GlSurfaceView Is Completly Black When Reloaded
Oct 5, 2010In a nutshell, I use regular views for all my application except for on that uses a GLSurfaceView.
The UI flow works well. I can navigate form one to the over except whith the GLSurfaceView
When I open the first time the GLSurfaceView everything works fine, but when I switch to another view and come back (pause menu) my view is completly black...
I tried several things and the closest I got from fixing it is to recreate the GLSurfaceView completly (but that takes too much time ...)
What I want is be able to do this:

what I'm doing wrong or point me to a tutorial that explain how to swap form GLViews to regular views
