I need to build a project for drawing on canvas by fingers.
How to get the touch event and motion event of my finger and then draw?

A good library for this: github.com/Orange-OpenSource/android-trail-drawing –

Start By going through the Fingerpaint demo in the sdk sample.

Explanation :
You are creating a view class then extends View. You override the onDraw(). You add the path of where finger touches and moves. You override the onTouch() of this purpose. In your onDraw() you draw the paths using the paint of your choice. You should call invalidate() to refresh the view.
To choose options you can click menu and choose the options.
The below can be used as a reference. You can modify the below according to your needs.

Fine code, thank you , it is usefull for me, could you please add a void code for save result of draw, thanks in adavance! –
Faviolafavonian
Regarding the beautiful code of Raghunandan above.
Many have asked how to "clear" the drawing. Here's how to do that:
public void clearDrawing()
{
Utils.Log("RaghunandanDraw, how to clear....");
setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);
// don't forget that one and the match below,
// or you just keep getting a duplicate when you save.
onSizeChanged(width, height, width, height);
invalidate();
setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
}
@Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh)
{
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);
width = w; // don't forget these
height = h;
mBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, height, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
mCanvas = new Canvas(mBitmap);
}
Many have asked how to "save" the drawing. Here's how to do that:
public DrawingView(Context c)
{
circlePaint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.MITER);
circlePaint.setStrokeWidth(4f);
etc...
// in the class where you set up the view, add this:
setDrawingCacheEnabled( true );
}
public void saveDrawing()
{
Bitmap whatTheUserDrewBitmap = getDrawingCache();
// don't forget to clear it (see above) or you just get duplicates
// almost always you will want to reduce res from the very high screen res
whatTheUserDrewBitmap =
ThumbnailUtils.extractThumbnail(whatTheUserDrewBitmap, 256, 256);
// NOTE that's an incredibly useful trick for cropping/resizing squares
// while handling all memory problems etc
// https://mcmap.net/q/50270/-android-crop-center-of-bitmap
// you can now save the bitmap to a file, or display it in an ImageView:
ImageView testArea = ...
testArea.setImageBitmap( whatTheUserDrewBitmap );
// these days you often need a "byte array". for example,
// to save to parse.com or other cloud services
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
whatTheUserDrewBitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 0, baos);
byte[] yourByteArray;
yourByteArray = baos.toByteArray();
}
Hope it helps someone as this has helped me.
PS if you're on Mac if you're looking for the Fingerprint demo, stackoverflow.com/questions/24164334 –
Indevout
Where do you get width and height because @Embus didnt't set these variables anythere in his code? Does it is the dimensions of signature area? –
Cahier
Hey Robertas, they are right there in public class DrawingView extends View { ... the first two items! Don't hesitate to ask any more Qs. Cheers. Yes they are set 'automatically' when onSizeChanged is first called by the system. –
Indevout
Yes, they are on the first two lines but some how they have 0 values even than something is drawn on view. I just copied and pasted the code of @Embus which works. Then your
clearDrawing method is included I get exception due to that the height and the width must be > 0. Than I looked at the code and saw that these variables are not set. So I asked you how do you get the values of width and height. P.S. you have to call invalidate() if you want refresh the drawing area! –
Cahier You can use this class simply:
public class DoodleCanvas extends View{
private Paint mPaint;
private Path mPath;
public DoodleCanvas(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
mPaint = new Paint();
mPaint.setColor(Color.RED);
mPaint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
mPaint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
mPaint.setStrokeCap(Paint.Cap.ROUND);
mPaint.setStrokeWidth(10);
mPath = new Path();
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawPath(mPath, mPaint);
super.onDraw(canvas);
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
switch (event.getAction()){
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
mPath.moveTo(event.getX(), event.getY());
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
mPath.lineTo(event.getX(), event.getY());
invalidate();
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
break;
}
return true;
}
}
tutorial to draw line use Bitmap, Canvas, and Paint class. draw-line-on-finger-touch and androiddraw
here one simple class to draw line using canvas as show below.
public class TestLineView extends View {
private Paint paint;
private PointF startPoint, endPoint;
private boolean isDrawing;
public TestLineView(Context context)
{
super(context);
init();
}
private void init()
{
paint = new Paint();
paint.setColor(Color.RED);
paint.setStyle(Style.STROKE);
paint.setStrokeWidth(2);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
{
if(isDrawing)
{
canvas.drawLine(startPoint.x, startPoint.y, endPoint.x, endPoint.y, paint);
}
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event)
{
switch (event.getAction())
{
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
startPoint = new PointF(event.getX(), event.getY());
endPoint = new PointF();
isDrawing = true;
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
if(isDrawing)
{
endPoint.x = event.getX();
endPoint.y = event.getY();
invalidate();
}
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
if(isDrawing)
{
endPoint.x = event.getX();
endPoint.y = event.getY();
isDrawing = false;
invalidate();
}
break;
default:
break;
}
return true;
}
}
I think it's important to add a thing, if you use the layout inflation that constructor in the drawview is not correct, add these constructors in the class:
public DrawingView(Context c, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(c, attrs);
...
}
public DrawingView(Context c, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(c, attrs, defStyle);
...
}
or the android system fails to inflate the layout file. I hope this could to help.
In addition to Ishan's answer, if you want to draw programatically without user interaction, you can edit the class just a little like this.
public class DrawingCanvas extends View {
private Paint mPaint;
private Path mPath;
private boolean isUserInteractionEnabled = false;
public DrawingCanvas(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
mPaint = new Paint();
mPaint.setColor(Color.RED);
mPaint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
mPaint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
mPaint.setStrokeCap(Paint.Cap.ROUND);
mPaint.setStrokeWidth(10);
mPath = new Path();
}
@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawPath(mPath, mPaint);
super.onDraw(canvas);
}
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (isUserInteractionEnabled) {
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
mPath.moveTo(event.getX(), event.getY());
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
mPath.lineTo(event.getX(), event.getY());
invalidate();
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
break;
}
}
return true;
}
public void moveCursorTo(float x, float y) {
mPath.moveTo(x, y);
}
public void makeLine(float toX, float toY) {
mPath.lineTo(toX, toY);
}
public void setUserInteractionEnabled(boolean userInteractionEnabled) {
isUserInteractionEnabled = userInteractionEnabled;
}
}
And then use it like
drawingCanvas.setUserInteractionEnabled(true) // to enable user interaction
drawingCanvas.setUserInteractionEnabled(true) // to disable user interaction
To Draw programatically
drawingCanvas.moveCursorTo(70f, 70f) // Move the cursor (Define starting point)
drawingCanvas.makeLine(200f, 200f) // End point (To where you need to draw)
