I studied the Androidreference for hours now, but don’t really get the clue how to draw something (Text, Bitmap, Path ….) on a ImageView.
Should I extend View and use the onDraw()-Method? If yes, how can I draw on my ImageView?
Or is there any other way to achieve my goal?
If you just want to draw another bitmap on your ImageView and it shouldn’t be dynamic, than use AbsoluteLayout and position them above each other.
If it should be much more dynamic, I recommend to use a SurfaceView. A tutorial can be found here: http://www.droidnova.com/playing-with-graphics-in-android-part-i,147.html
