I’m developing an android application (API 19 4.4) and I encounter some issue with ImageViews. I have a SurfaceView, in which I dynamically add ImageViews which I want to react to touch events. On so far, I have managed to make the ImageView move and scale smoothly but I have an annoying behavior.
When I scale down the image to a certain limit (I would say half the original size) and I try to move it, the image flicker. After a short analysis, it seems that it’s switching its position symmetrically around the finger point on the screen, cumulating distance, and finally gets out of sight (all that happens very fast ( < 1s). I think I am missing something with the relative value of the touch event to the ImageView/SurfaceView, but I’m a quite a noob and I’m stucked…
Here is my code
public class MyImageView extends ImageView {
private ScaleGestureDetector mScaleDetector ;
private static final int MAX_SIZE = 1024;
private static final String TAG = "MyImageView";
PointF DownPT = new PointF(); // Record Mouse Position When Pressed Down
PointF StartPT = new PointF(); // Record Start Position of 'img'
public MyImageView(Context context) {
super(context);
mScaleDetector = new ScaleGestureDetector(context,new MySimpleOnScaleGestureListener());
setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
setScaleType(ScaleType.MATRIX);
setAdjustViewBounds(true);
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
lp.setMargins(-MAX_SIZE, -MAX_SIZE, -MAX_SIZE, -MAX_SIZE);
this.setLayoutParams(lp);
this.setX(MAX_SIZE);
this.setY(MAX_SIZE);
}
int firstPointerID;
boolean inScaling=false;
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
// get pointer index from the event object
int pointerIndex = event.getActionIndex();
// get pointer ID
int pointerId = event.getPointerId(pointerIndex);
//First send event to scale detector to find out, if it's a scale
boolean res = mScaleDetector.onTouchEvent(event);
if (!mScaleDetector.isInProgress()) {
int eid = event.getAction();
switch (eid & MotionEvent.ACTION_MASK)
{
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE :
if(pointerId == firstPointerID) {
PointF mv = new PointF( (int)(event.getX() - DownPT.x), (int)( event.getY() - DownPT.y));
this.setX((int)(StartPT.x+mv.x));
this.setY((int)(StartPT.y+mv.y));
StartPT = new PointF( this.getX(), this.getY() );
}
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN : {
firstPointerID = pointerId;
DownPT.x = (int) event.getX();
DownPT.y = (int) event.getY();
StartPT = new PointF( this.getX(), this.getY() );
break;
}
case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_DOWN: {
break;
}
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_UP:
case MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL: {
firstPointerID = -1;
break;
}
default :
break;
}
return true;
}
return true;
}
public boolean onScaling(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
this.setScaleX(this.getScaleX()*detector.getScaleFactor());
this.setScaleY(this.getScaleY()*detector.getScaleFactor());
invalidate();
return true;
}
private class MySimpleOnScaleGestureListener extends SimpleOnScaleGestureListener {
@Override
public boolean onScale(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
return onScaling(detector);
}
@Override
public boolean onScaleBegin(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
Log.d(TAG, "onScaleBegin");
return true;
}
@Override
public void onScaleEnd(ScaleGestureDetector arg0) {
Log.d(TAG, "onScaleEnd");
}
}
}
I have also another questions about rotations. How should I implement this? Could I use the ScalegestureDetector in some way or have I to make this works in the view touch event? I would like to be able to scale and rotate in the same gesture (and move in another).
Thank for helping me, I would really appreciate!
Sorry for my english
this is a working example of two fingers move/scale/rotate (note: the code is quite short due to smart detector used - see MatrixGestureDetector
):
class ViewPort extends View {
List<Layer> layers = new LinkedList<Layer>();
int[] ids = {R.drawable.layer0, R.drawable.layer1, R.drawable.layer2};

Resources res = getResources();
for (int i = 0; i < ids.length; i++) {
Layer l = new Layer(context, this, BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, ids[i]));
layers.add(l);
}
}
@Override

l.draw(canvas);
}
}

@Override

target = null;
for (int i = layers.size() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
Layer l = layers.get(i);
if (l.contains(event)) {
target = l;
layers.remove(l);
layers.add(l);
invalidate();
break;
}
}
