Question

Is it possible to detect all touch events in an Activity and capture it and then in return pass that pass event to another View?

For example:

Button 1 and Button 2. When Button 1 is pressed I want to capture that touch/click event and automatically pass that touch event to Button 2, basically with one touch/press you get the click generated and that same click is passed on to the second button automatically.

Answer 1

take look this API description first.

---

boolean
android.app.Activity.dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent
ev)

public boolean dispatchTouchEvent
(MotionEvent ev) Since: API Level 1
Called to process touch screen events.
You can override this to intercept all
touch screen events before they are
dispatched to the window. Be sure to
call this implementation for touch
screen events that should be handled
normally.

Parameters ev The touch screen event.

Returns boolean Return true if this
event was consumed.

As you can see, you can intercept all touch events.

@Override
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.dispatchTouchEvent(ev);
    if(btn1.onTouchEvent(ev)){
        return btn2.onTouchEvent(ev);
    }else{
        return false;
    }
}

These codes are what you are looking I think.
