Question

I have a View in Android which is basically a large image, with many small images in it that can be dragged. I want to add an option to create text boxes inside this view also, i.e. for the user to be able to create a text bix, write in it, move it around, etc. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks!!!

Try to put a text box on small images as disable to set, and for example setOnLongClickListener and enable it so you can provide user to write textbox… Then setOnTouchListener on every small images to move around on the big one.

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    final ViewGroup vg = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.lout);
    final ImageView img = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView1);

    final TouchListener listen1 = new TouchListener();
    img.setOnTouchListener(listen1);

    DragListener listen2 = new DragListener();
    vg.setOnTouchListener(listen2);

    final EditText et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
    Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);

    btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            TextView lbl = new TextView(vg.getContext());
            lbl.setText(et.getText());
            lbl.setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams(0,0,LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
            lbl.setOnTouchListener(listen1);
            vg.addView(lbl);

        }

    });

}

Something like this…
