I have a webview that’s playing a video, and I want it to appear

  • 0

I have a webview that’s playing a video, and I want it to appear behind some other views, but I can’t seem to make it happen. I’ve tried simply just sending the foreground views to the front with bringChildToFront(View v), but no cigar. Any thoughts?

Edit: Some more details: The webview plays a video using flash, and the webview is the size of the entire screen. I have some stuff I want to pop up in front of the video, but they only stay behind the video. They’re definitely there, as they receive touch events and stuff, but just hidden away from view by the video.

    Since the Flash player will essentially pre-empt any other views in the window, you’ll just have to do one better over Flash: use another window on top of the main window.

    Android allows you to do this by using the PopupWindow class.
