Question

I'm a total beginner on Android, I only have some java experience from school. For programing a Game I want to draw on a canvas in a Frame layout, that's part of a xml layoutfile. My java.class should relate to this layoutfile. Is this possible, and if yes, how? I didn't found a solution on the web. best regards, Slarti.

Answer 1

Creating a custom view by extending View class and add that view in your FrameLayout. In your custom view file override onDraw(Canvas canvas) and draw anything on that canvas.
