Create Custom view in Android

Question

I need to create a Custom view in android which will have dynamic text like price, address etc. and also an ImageView inside it as shown in the image below. I tried to find google some tutorial for custom view but didn't find something satisfactory to do all these things. I also need to use onClick event on this view. Please guys, some code would be of great help. I'm a novice to android. I read google tutorial to create custom view but couldn't implement this. https://lh4.ggpht.com/HmwmRTx3g9ddkHbgvZXpZOB3Am-O9OQARQ2qpxJ16zTDZbG57CmvgxUC75sGFzC3cqrH

Answer 1

This is called Custom Overlay for MapView.

You can check example and implement as per your requirement - Android MapView Balloons

Answer 2

You can use FrameLayouts. It is very simple to use. FrameLayout can add several views on top of each other. It creates a stack of the views. Just add whatever views you want to inside FrameLayout and use the property setVisibility() to control when to show which view.
