FreeDrawView
<img src="sample.gif" title="sample" /> <br /> A View that let you draw freely on it. You can customize paint width, alpha and color. Can be useful for notes app, signatures or hands-free writing<br /><br /> <img src="sample_scrollable.gif" title="sample" /> <br /> This View works flawlessly inside Scrolling parents like NestedScrollView. Be careful with lists, you need to restore manually the draw state!<br /><br /> <img src="sample_rotation.gif" title="sample" /> <br /> Also supports state-restore on rotation, with custom behaviours like "clear, crop or fitXY" and you can take a screenshot (given to you as a Bitmap Object) of the View drawn content<br />
Changelog<br />
You can try the demo app on google play store. <br /> coming soon <br /> <br /> Or see the full video demo on YouTube. <br /> https://youtu.be/ejEdq4lnPjc <br /> <br />
Download
Gradle:
compile 'com.rm:freedrawview:1.1.2'
<br />
<b>Min SDK version: 9 (Android 2.3) </b>
<br />
Usage
To use this library, just add this inside your layout file
<com.rm.freedrawview.FreeDrawView
android:id="@+id/your_id"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/white"
app:paintAlpha="255"
app:paintColor="@color/black"
app:paintWidth="4dp"
app:resizeBehaviour="crop"/>
... if you need to use this View's custom xml attributes (shown in a table below or in the example above) do not forget to add this to your root layout
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
And this in your Activity
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
FreeDrawView mSignatureView;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mSignatureView = (FreeDrawView) findViewById(R.id.your_id);
// Setup the View
mSignatureView.setPaintColor(Color.BLACK);
mSignatureView.setPaintWidthPx(getResources.getDimensionPixelSize(R.dimen.paint_width));
//mSignatureView.setPaintWidthPx(12);
mSignatureView.setPaintWidthDp(getResources.getDimension(R.dimen.paint_width));
//mSignatureView.setPaintWidthDp(6);
mSignatureView.setPaintAlpha(255);// from 0 to 255
mSignatureView.setResizeBehaviour(ResizeBehaviour.CROP);// Must be one of ResizeBehaviour
// values;
// This listener will be notified every time the path done and undone count changes
mSignatureView.setPathRedoUndoCountChangeListener(new PathRedoUndoCountChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onUndoCountChanged(int undoCount) {
// The undoCount is the number of the paths that can be undone
}
@Override
public void onRedoCountChanged(int redoCount) {
// The redoCount is the number of path removed that can be redrawn
}
});
// This listener will be notified every time a new path has been drawn
mSignatureView.setOnPathDrawnListener(new PathDrawnListener() {
@Override
public void onNewPathDrawn() {
// The user has finished drawing a path
}
@Override
public void onPathStart() {
// The user has started drawing a path
}
});
// This will take a screenshot of the current drawn content of the view
mSignatureView.getDrawScreenshot(new FreeDrawView.DrawCreatorListener() {
@Override
public void onDrawCreated(Bitmap draw) {
// The draw Bitmap is the drawn content of the View
}
@Override
public void onDrawCreationError() {
// Something went wrong creating the bitmap, should never
// happen unless the async task has been canceled
}
});
}
}
Save and restore manually the Draw content
From v1.1.0 you can get the current state of the Draw (as a Serializable object) and than restore it:
FreeDrawSerializableState state = mSignatureView.getCurrentViewStateAsSerializable();// This returns a FreeDrawSerializableState (which implements Serializable)
// Save this "state" object into a file or keep it where you want
mSignatureView.restoreStateFromSerializable(state);// Restore the state of the view
// Now all the previous paths and points have been restored (including the history)
To save this Serializable Object inside a file you can take a look at the class FileHelper
<br />Supported Attributes
FreeDrawView
XML Attribute | Java method | Description | Default value |
---|---|---|---|
paintColor | setPaintColor(@ColorInt int checked) | Set the color of the paint | Color.BLACK |
paintWidth | setPaintWidthPx(@FloatRange(from = 0) float widthPx) | Set the width of the paint in pixels | 4dp |
setPaintWidthDp(float dp) | Set the width of the paint in dp | 4dp | |
paintAlpha | setPaintAlpha(@IntRange(from = 0, to = 255) int alpha) | Set the alpha of the paint | 255 |
resizeBehaviour | setResizeBehaviour(ResizeBehaviour newBehaviour) | The behaviour of the view every time it is resized (on rotation for example) one of [clear, fitXY, crop] | ResizeBehaviour.CROP |
Limitations and TODO
- Multitouch drawing is currently not supported <br />
- Eraser is not yet implemented <br />
Manually restore state is not supported<br />- Get the draw screenshot from a FreeDrawSerializableState without adding the view
Also, the FreeDrawView class gives some utility methods to handle path history: <br />
public void undoLast()
<br /> This method undo the last drawn segment <br /> <br />public void redoLast()
<br /> This method redraw the last undone segment <br /> <br />public void undoAll()
<br /> This method undo all the drawn segments, they can be redone one by one or all in one <br /> <br />public void redoAll()
<br /> This method redraw all the undone segments <br /> <br />public void clearHistory()
<br /> This method removes all the history segments (The one that could be redone) <br /> <br />public void clearDraw()
<br /> This method removes all the current drawn segments, without adding them to the history <br /> <br />public void clearDrawAndHistory()
<br /> This method removes all the current drawn segments and clears the history <br /> <br />public int getPathCount(boolean includeCurrentlyDrawingPath)
<br /> This method returns the current number of segments drawn <br /> <br />
You can use: <br/>
setOnPathDrawnListener(PathDrawnListener listener)
<br /> to be notified every time the user starts or finishes drawing a line. <br /> <br />setPathRedoUndoCountChangeListener(PathRedoUndoCountChangeListener listener)
<br /> to be notified when the undo or redo count changes. <br /> <br />
And remove them with: <br/>
removePathDrawnListener()
<br />removePathRedoUndoCountChangeListener()
<br /> <br />
