Question

Can anyone guide me to perform zoom in&out operations on multiple views in android ? I need to perform zoom in&out operations on touch of image, text views . What should be my parent layout? Here is the code to zoom an image on touch of imageview. How do i zoom a textview? Please help me.

   // These matrices will be used to scale points of the image
Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
Matrix savedMatrix = new Matrix();

// The 3 states (events) which the user is trying to perform   
static final int NONE = 0;
static final int DRAG = 1;
static final int ZOOM = 2;
int mode = NONE;

// these PointF objects are used to record the point(s) the user is touching
PointF start = new PointF();
PointF mid = new PointF();
float oldDist = 1f;

private void zoom(View v, MotionEvent event) 
{
    ImageView view = (ImageView) v;
    view.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.MATRIX);
    float scale;

    //  dumpEvent(event);
    // Handle touch events here...

    switch (event.getAction() & MotionEvent.ACTION_MASK) 
    {
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:  
        // first finger down only
        savedMatrix.set(matrix);
        start.set(event.getX(), event.getY());

        mode = DRAG;
        break;

    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP: // first finger lifted

    case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_UP: // second finger lifted

        mode = NONE;   

        break;

    case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_DOWN: // first and second finger down

        oldDist = spacing(event);

        if (oldDist > 5f)
        {
            savedMatrix.set(matrix);
            midPoint(mid, event);
            mode = ZOOM;

        }
        break;

    case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:

        if (mode == DRAG) 
        { 
            matrix.set(savedMatrix);
            matrix.postTranslate(event.getX() - start.x, event.getY() - start.y); // create the transformation in the matrix  of points
        } 
        else if (mode == ZOOM) 
        { 
            // pinch zooming
            float newDist = spacing(event);

            if (newDist > 5f) 
            {
                matrix.set(savedMatrix);
                scale = newDist / oldDist; // setting the scaling of the
                // matrix...if scale > 1 means
                // zoom in...if scale < 1 means
                // zoom out
                matrix.postScale(scale, scale, mid.x, mid.y);
            }
        }
        break;  
    }

    view.setImageMatrix(matrix); // display the transformation on screen

}

private float spacing(MotionEvent event)

    return FloatMath.sqrt(x * x + y * y);

}

To zoom textview, you can use the same code which you have to zoom an image. But you should change textview to an imageview and then perform zoom operations. Here is the link to convert textview to imageview Converting a TextView->Bitmap->ImageView, and nothing's showing up
