I need to put buttons in different places on an image, its a floorplan

  • 0

I need to put buttons in different places on an image, its a floorplan and I want to use the image for navigation to each of the rooms.

I have an idea that I need two images the top one holds the floorplan and the bottom one holds the buttons – which are really different coloured areas. I want to show the user the top image but get touches from the bottom picture. If I can get the colour of the button/area the user has clicked then I can tell what room they want to go to and I’ll be able to have my buttons any shape I like.

I found the idea but I can’t find any tutorials or instruction to help me. I’m currently looking at GL ES 1.0 but I’m not sure if its the right way to do it.

Any help would be very much appreciatted

thanks

    Sorry I answered before I fully read the question. My solution is a simpler way but will not allow you to form and shape them as well as your idea. Let me play around and maybe I can update this answer. Good Luck

    If I understand you correctly you can place the buttons over the image and then set them to invisible. This way they can’t be seen but can still be pressed.

    View b = findViewById(R.id.button); 
b.setVisibility(View.GONE);
//I can't remember off the top of my head but it might be
b.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE)

    And incase my code is off here is a backup Link
