Is there a way to write a bitmap image into an outputstream other than the below method. myView.mBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, outputstream); While using the above method there is a loss in quality of the pic for JPEG formats, however for PNG images it is fine.

I have a bitmap displayed on ImageView now i want to give a facility to write comment typed by the user on that bitmap.i tried using Canvas canvas = new Canvas(srcBitmap); canvas.drawText("Hello", 100,100,null);but this is giving me following error java.lang.IllegalStateException: Immutable bitmap passed to Canvas constructor later on i want to save this whole image a bitmap.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMight sound crazy, but it's what I need to do. I want to take a Bitmap object and use the XMLPullParser/XmlSerializer to write this to a flat file. Obviously I will need to read the XML tag back into a Bitmap object.So somehow I have to turn my Bitmap into a String and then turn that String back into a Bitmap. I will do some searches on Base64 to see if I get any good examples.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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.

I want to draw a shape(many circles particularly) into a Specific Bitmap. I have never used canvas / 2D graphs etc. As i see it i create a Drawable put the bitmap in it then "canvas-it" to the shapes i want etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out how to draw on a bitmap in android, and keep a copy of these changed bitmaps for an undo function.
Bitmap b = ...
Paint p = new Paint();
canvas.drawBitmap(b, new Matrix(), null);
canvas.drawCircle(0,0,20,20);
//does Bitmap b have the circle drawn on it next time?
Or how do I get the bitmap after its been drawn on with the canvas(I want to preserve a stack of bitmaps with the changes applied by canvas drawing)? Maybe I'm going about this entirely wrong.

I want to get the bitmap that is drawn when a textview is displayed but without displaying the textview in the activity. something like this:

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a Bitmap image and i want to forward the bitmap to another activity. I have two activities Activity A and Activity B. This is how I started the Activity B
startActivityForResult(new Intent(Activity A.this, Activity B.class), 120);
in activity B
private void forwardImage(Bitmap bit) {
Intent i = new Intent(MMS.this, Compose.class);
i.putExtra("MMS", bit);
setResult(RESULT_OK, i);
finish(); }
This is not forwarding to Activity A but if I put a String to the intent it'll forward. This is how I listen to result in Activity A
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch (resultCode)
case RESULT_OK: Intent intent = getIntent();
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) intent.getParcelableExtra("MMS");
mmsImage.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
default: break;
} }
How can I pass a bitmap.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to convert a Bitmap to a grayscale array of bytes (one byte per pixel). At the same time I want to just crop at section from the middle. Having looked though the various api's it is not clear to me what the best way would be.
1) What is ALPHA_8? is that grayscale? I have a feeling that the grayscale effect should be done via some "saturation" on the paint object, right?
2) once I have the Bitmap in grayscale and the right size, what is the best way to get that to a byte[] of pixels (one byte per pixel)?

View 4 Replies View Relatedthis problem has been bothering me for days and I cannot figure out why on earth it is happening. I have a method that detects for a face, if a face is detected, the method will draw a rectangle on a canvas along the face.That part works fine.The problem is, when it displays to the image_view in my xml file, it will display on the far left middle of the image view, in a box, rather than in the center with the width as fill_parent.I thought of a possible workaround : to set the bitmap as a bitmapdrawable, but canvas only draws to bitmaps, so I can get the bitmapdrawable in the middle, but with no red box around it.I commented out my testing of bitmap drawable, and left it as what I have now...it only displays to my xml in the far left of the image_view.
View 1 Replies View Relatedmy app has widgets that have an ImageView and a TextView. On the onUpdate() method of the WidgetProvider, I put a Bitmap inside the ImageView this way:

The problem is that sometimes the widget throws a RuntimeException because somebody has recycled the Bitmap, and I don't know what to do.
I have a long series of graphics -- icon1_0.png, icon1_1.png, icon1_2.png..., icon12_0.png, icon12_1.png, icon12_2.png -- and I'd like to package them with my android application. Ideally I think I should be able to load them as resources but the resource id's are set up as java identifiers. Of course, java identifiers can't be assembled at runtime. I have to ask for R.drawable.icon12_00 so I cannot set up a loop
for(int icon=0;icon<12;icon++)
for(int frame=0;frame<3;frame++)
//syntax error obviously
BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable."icon" + icon + "_" + frame + ".png");
So is there any way to get resources by their names? Better yet, is there a canonical way outside the resource system to pack data files into an android application package so that I can get at them? I'm thinking about reflection but that doesn't seem like the right solution to me.
My program creates a bitmap and successfully stores it on external storage (Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI).
The next option to implement is to share the image. I'm thinking about different way of doing it: 1. Save it as captured image (as before) and startActivity with Intent.ACTION_SEND intent with the saved image uri. 2. Save it in application's home directory (getFileStreamPath()), startActivityForResult as in 1. and I hope that I'll recieve a result when the message is sent. 3. Save it in some kind of temp/cache folder and don't bother about deleting it or delete it as in 2.
Personally I prefer the second option.
My questions are: Will it work with startActivityForResult() as in 2. ? Do I have access to temp/cache folder as in 3. ? If I do, Should I delete the file afterwards ? May be some flag for Intent.ACTION_SEND to delete the file afterwards ?
Can i draw text on a bitmap? I cannot find any API support this.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Any one know about how to draw a bitmap image?...
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been trying almost everything and been searching and reading everywhere on the net. I just can't seem to find the correct way of doing this.
I have a MapActivity with a MapView and I want to draw something on an Overlay. I'm overwriting the draw-method, and I can easily draw straight on the canvas using a paint. My problem is I want to merge some circles and afterwards color them. Therefore I want to create a Bitmap and then draw on that. I just don't know what to use. Should I use a mutable Bitmap, a BitmapDrawable or am I simply going in the wrong direction.
The reason I want to do this is because I want to draw some kind of heatmap upon the Google Maps, and I need to merge and blend different circles, so they appear to be just one big blob.
I'm creating a simple game for Android and faced with a problem: Idea is to have a huge "map" image file and re-draw only small part of it (320*480) depending on user actions.
I didn't find a better solution than using "public static Bitmap createBitmap (Bitmap source, int x, int y, int width, int height)" method and decided to try it (expected huge performance degradation), but actually it's appeared that this method changes source bitmap and when i call it second time source size is significantly reduced. For instance this code:
CODE:.................
I have a byte array of RGB values, just like the contents(without header) of a *.bmp file. What I want to do is, draw the corresponding bitmap on Android, using OpenGL.
It seems that OpenGL ES doesn't have a single API that will do, it true?
If true, how can I do this?
Actually, I can draw it in JAVA code, but it's too slow and costs too much CPU time. So I want to try drawing it with OpenGL. Is there any other advises? Or maybe OpenGL can't be the right answer?
