Question

I have a custom View that I would like to “embed” in an WebView.

By embed I mean:

• The custom view intercepts onTouch events on its area
• The custom view looks like a piece of the web page, so it scrolls with the surrounding text

I wrote the custom View, so I can edit it as needed

Answer 1

as I said in my comment.

I can’t think of a normal way to what you do. What I would do if I were you is to put the custom view in between 2 WebView objects like this:

<ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/scrollView1"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" >

    <WebView android:id="@+id/webView1
     ...
     />

    <include android:layout="custom_layout" />

    <WebView android:id="@+id/webView2
    ...
    />

  </ ScrollView>
