Question

I have an activity with a GoogleMaps component. It’s a linear layout with size to wrap_content and translucent style. The Map is the only ui element and has a fixed size. How can the touch events outside the Map be delegated to the underlying activity?

Any hints appreciated!

Answer 1

It can’t. Only one Activity can be active at a time. The underlying Activity may be visible because of the translucent theme of the active one, but it is paused so it won’t react to
any touch event.

Use fragments or a combination of layout in a single Activity
