Is it possible to have multiple separate Canvas layers, which I can merge to

  • 0

Is it possible to have multiple separate Canvas layers, which I can merge to one? Similar to what I’d do in photoshop?

Update:

Some explanation why I’d like to have something like that:
Layer1 might hold something that has been created by a complex and CPU expensive algorithm while the other layer, Layer2, is something that just goes on top of that, but changes regularly, e.g. when a user touches the interface. For that I don’t want to go through the whole process of drawing the underlaying Layer1 again, but just make the changes to Layer2 and then “merge” them.

    Well, you can have something like a FrameLayout in which you override onDraw() and have server sub-elements in which you also override onDraw().

    This might give you the effect you want.
