Question

I cant get my head around this problem I have. I have 2 images which were added to a canvas and will be treated as one object, now I need to return this canvas as bitmap/drawable, since
Here is code how I added 2 bitmaps into a canvas

Bitmap image1=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources() ,R.drawable.icon1);
Bitmap image2=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources() R.drawable.icon2);
Rect srcRect = new Rect(0, 0, image.getWidth(), image.getHeight());
Rect dstRect = new Rect(srcRect);
dstRect.offset(15, 0);      
        canvas.drawBitmap(image, srcRect, dstRect, null);

        dstRect.offset(image.getWidth(), 0);    

        canvas.drawBitmap(image2, srcRect, dstRect, null);
       //return???????????

Please someone help.
Tnx in advance!

You can create a Bitmap to draw into.

Bitmap image1=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources() ,R.drawable.icon1);
Bitmap image2=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources() R.drawable.icon2);
Bitmap result = Bitmap.createBitmap(targetWidth, targetHeight, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(result);//Create the canvas to your image
Rect srcRect = new Rect(0, 0, image.getWidth(), image.getHeight());
Rect dstRect = new Rect(srcRect);
dstRect.offset(15, 0);      
canvas.drawBitmap(image, srcRect, dstRect, null); //draw on it
dstRect.offset(image.getWidth(), 0);    
canvas.drawBitmap(image2, srcRect, dstRect, null);
return result;//result will have the drawed images from the canvas
