Question

I am trying to change the image during runtime in livewallpaper. I am calling method changeFlowers. I able to print Log.W() but unable to change bitmap. Thanks in Advance.

---

When I call from here f1.changeColor(this._theme) it is not working, I want to change the fish bitmap image during runtime

public void changeFlowers(int i)
{


    FlowerOne f1 = (FlowerOne)(this._fishes.get(i));   
    f1.changeColor(this._theme); // 


}

changeColor function from FishOne.java

public void changeColor(int mfishColor)
{


    switch(mfishColor) {
    case 1:

    BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    options.inPurgeable = true;
    this.leftBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(), com.gotit.livewallpaper.fishshd.R.drawable.fish1, options);

    BitmapFactory.Options options1 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    options1.inPurgeable = true;
    this.rightBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(), com.gotit.livewallpaper.fishshd.R.drawable.fish2, options1);

    break;

    case 2:
    BitmapFactory.Options options2 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    options2.inPurgeable = true;
    this.leftBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(), com.gotit.livewallpaper.fishshd.R.drawable.redfish1, options2);

    BitmapFactory.Options options3 = new BitmapFactory.Options();
    options3.inPurgeable = true;
    this.rightBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getContext().getResources(), com.gotit.livewallpaper.fishshd.R.drawable.redfish2, options3);

    break;
    default:
    }

Answer 1

Re-initializing again inside the method. it worked

this.initialize(this.leftBitmap, this.rightBitmap, CLOWN_FISH_FPS, TOTAL_FRAMES_IN_SPRITE, startPoint, speed);
