Question

I’m using a Custom View where I created a Circle:

canvas.drawCircle(width/2, width/2, radius, paint1);

Now, I want to empty the circle from inside, something like a ring.

Drawing another smaller white circle will raise another problem. I’m planning to make my view listen to user clicks. I want to listen to the clicks on the ring only!

Is there a way to exclude some part of the canvas?

Answer 1

I worked around the problem by drawing an inner white circle and filtering the clicks based on the two radius lengths I had.

So, you can’t draw an empty circle but you can make a circle to behave like an empty one.

Thanks.
