Android canvas.drawBitmap very slow with ARGB_8888 - java

I am new in Android coding, but I'd like to make an app for tablets with a pen to be able to handwrite (I know there are already plenty out there but I want my own one)
I collected some code from all over the Internet and now I am at the point that I'd like to add an eraser mode. For that, I am creating a Bitmap which is then added on a Canvas.
It all works fine, but the Bitmap has the Bitmap.Configuration.ARGB_8888 and that is slow when drawing, so it lags behind. I tried Bitmap.Configuration.RGB_565 and had no performance issues, but other problems with erasing.
I also found out, that it obviously has to do with the size of the Bitmap. My tablet has a screen resolution of 1920x1200. When I am creating the Bitmap with only 1557x1000 I have no performance problems, but as I increase it to 1558x1000 or higher it starts to lag again.
Here is a part of my code:
class DrawView:
public class DrawView extends SurfaceView implements View.OnTouchListener{
private Paint paint;
private Paint bitmapPaint;
private Path path;
private Canvas canvas;
private Bitmap mBitmap;
private int currentColor;
private float currentStrokeWidth;
private boolean eraserMode = false;
public DrawView(Context context, AttributeSet attr) {
super(context, attr);
path = new Path();
paint = new Paint();
bitmapPaint = new Paint(Paint.DITHER_FLAG);
this.setOnTouchListener(this);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setDither(true);
paint.setFilterBitmap(false);
// ... setting Color and StorkeWidth to paint
}
#Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh) {
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);
mBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(w, h, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
canvas = new Canvas(mBitmap);
}
#Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas c){
c.drawBitmap(mBitmap, 0, 0, bitmapPaint);
c.drawPath(path, paint);
}
#Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
float eventX = event.getX();
float eventY = event.getY();
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
touch_start(eventX, eventY);
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
touch_move(eventX, eventY);
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
touch_up();
break;
default:
return false;
}
invalidate();
}
return true;
}
private float mX, mY;
private void touch_start(float x, float y) {
path.moveTo(x, y);
mX = x;
mY = y;
}
private void touch_move(float x, float y) {
path.quadTo(mX, mY, (x + mX) / 2, (y + mY) / 2);
canvas.drawPath(path, paint);
mX = x;
mY = y;
}
private void touch_up() {
canvas.drawPath(path, paint);
path.reset();
}
}
I am very glad if someone could help me fixing this issue.

I fixed it by myself.
I realized that my background image I was setting with setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.background) had a too high resolution, I lowered it and now it works. I don't know why this affects drawing performance but that explains why I haven't found any answer on the internet

Canvas not drawing on finger location when zoomed

I am trying to make a painting app. Zoom kinda works, when i try to draw on canvas after the zoom, it does not draw on the location of the finger. instead it draws scale to the device screen.
I did some research but could not find the answer to the solution.
-> float x = (event.getX() - scalePointX)/mScaleFactor; // does not work,
I tried to implement matrix but was unsuccessful.
Can someone please help me to draw on the finger when the canvas is zoomed in or out?
Thank you!

I had that problem and was able to solve it with This stack overflow question. What I did was store the current scale offset and when I draw the new paths, I'd offset the drawing matrix by this stored value. Your solution is really close, instead of scaling the canvas you can scale the drawing matrix. Also a friendly tip, you might need to scale the line thickness after zooming also, so use the same value that was stored to scale.

Please give me advice how to do it?
And I also want to do infinite my canvas size - its optional.
Main problem is zoom
My advice - you can use opengl. It's looks like you want to create some drawer, but canvas not perfect solution for this. Currently almost all devices support opengl es. It faster than canvas and you can made many another function(as scaling, image pasting, 3d objects etc.) much more easier. Here you can find a good tutorial.
Yoo should use ScaleGestureDetector to scale your canvas. This is my sample code:
private class MyScaleGestureListener implements ScaleGestureDetector.OnScaleGestureListener {
public boolean onScale(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
scaleFactor *= detector.getScaleFactor();
return true;
}
public boolean onScaleBegin(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
Log.d("myZoomTag", "SCALE STARTED");
return true;
}
public void onScaleEnd(ScaleGestureDetector detector) {
Log.d("myZoomTag", "SCALE ENDED");
}
}
Here scaleFactor is global variable. In your onDraw method you should do something like this:
bitmapWidth *= scaleFactor;
bitmapHeight *= scaleFactor;

How to implement undo/redo in my drawing app

I created an app to draw and wanted to implement the functions undo / redo, I tried various methods found surfing but none of them work, can someone help me?

else
{
}
//toast the user

{
paths.add(undonePaths.remove(undonePaths.size()-1));
invalidate();
}
else
{
}
//toast the user
}'
TL;DR.
I created a similar application in Java Swing a couple of months ago. The way I implemented the 2 methods was I had created a Stack of shapes which was added to as the user was adding shapes to the whiteboard and then push/popped from this to undo/redo (storing the shape which was removed in a temp variable)
protected Shape removed; //shape object of an undo-ed object
protected Stack<Shape> shapes = new Stack<Shape>(); //stack to store the shapes
public void undo()
{
if (!shapes.empty()) //only undo if there's shapes on the board
{
removed = shapes.pop(); //pop removes a shape and returns it into 'removed' object
repaint();
}
}
public void redo()
{
if (removed != null) //only redo if something has been undone
{
shapes.push(removed); //push adds the object back onto the stack
removed = null;
repaint();
}
}
I hope this helps!
A good approach is to create an interface called something like "Undoable". It has at least 3 overrrides: do(), undo() and redo(). Then do all your work in classes that implement Undoable, and keep a stack of these around = the undo history.

Android Paint: how to get "airbrush" effect?

I am following the "FingerPaint" demo in the API Demos.
I would need to get an "airbrush" effect, in the sense that when I draw over the same spot it gets darker and darker.
Please see the image:
as you can see the center is darker because I passed with the paint on the same spot more than one time.
Please how do I get the same effect, of getting darker a spot if drawn over more than one time?
EDIT EDIT EDIT
the suggested
mPaint.setAlpha(0x80)
kind of work, but only if I release touch and then touch again, if I do not release and keep the finger on the screen the effect is not reached.
The point is that you do not reach the effect if you do not release your finger from the screen, if you keep on drawing without releasing the touch it doesn't get darker when paint over. If you release the touch and then draw again you get the effect
This is the result I get. And I do not want:
this would be the desired result:
this is is the code taken form the API Demos:

strokeRadius = strokeWidth/2;
Shape brushShape = new OvalShape();
mBrush = new ShapeDrawable(brushShape);
Paint paint = mBrush.getPaint();
// radial gradient shader with a transparency falloff, if you don't want this,
// just set a color on the paint and remove the setShader call
Shader shader = new RadialGradient(strokeRadius, strokeRadius, strokeRadius,
Color.argb(255, 0, 0, 0), Color.argb(0, 0, 0, 0), Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
paint.setShader(shader);

Edit: Attaching snap shot of my emulator (Raghunandan). I used your code no changes except increased the stroke width and it looks like below.
Does not look good when you draw slowly.
Screen shot stroke width 12 if you draw a striaght line no problem. But when you draw zig zag you can see it does not look good

How can I erase my objects without Background Image?

I want to erase my bitmap but I don't want to erase background image. When I try to erase is white and it draw very hard in frames.
This is from CanvasView
erasePaint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
//erasePaint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR));
erasePaint.setAntiAlias(true);
erasePaint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
erasePaint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
erasePaint.setStrokeWidth(12);
//....
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
paint.setPathEffect(null);
if(bitmap!=null){
for(MyEraser e:eraserList){
canvas.drawPath(e.p,erasePaint);
invalidate();
}
final OnTouchListener eraseListener = new OnTouchListener() {
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
// erasePaint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR));
//FirstActivity.ll.setVisibility(LinearLayout.GONE);
switch (event.getAction()) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
myEraser = new MyEraser();
lastTouchX = event.getX();
lastTouchY = event.getY();
myEraser.mouseDown(event.getX(), event.getY());
return true;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
resetDirtyRect(event.getX(),event.getY());
int historySize = event.getHistorySize();
for(int i=0;i<historySize;i++){
float historicalX = event.getHistoricalX(i);
float historicalY = event.getHistoricalY(i);
expandDirtyRect(historicalX, historicalY);
myEraser.mouseUp(historicalX, historicalY);
}
myEraser.mouseUp(event.getX(), event.getY());
eraserList.add(myEraser);
break;
default:
Log.d("mock it up", "Unknown touch event " + event.toString());
return false;
}
invalidate(
(int) (dirtyRect.left - HALF_STROKE_WIDTH),
(int) (dirtyRect.top - HALF_STROKE_WIDTH),
(int) (dirtyRect.right + HALF_STROKE_WIDTH),
(int) (dirtyRect.bottom + HALF_STROKE_WIDTH));
lastTouchX = event.getX();
lastTouchY = event.getY();
return true;
}
};
}
}
This is MyEraser
public class MyEraser {
Paint paint = new Paint();
Path p = new Path();
public MyEraser(){
paint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR));
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
paint.setStrokeWidth(5);
}
public void mouseDown(float x, float y) {
//path.addCircle(x,y,5,Path.Direction.CW);
p.moveTo( x, y );
// path.lineTo(x, y);
}
public void mouseMove(Path path, float x, float y) {
// path.addCircle(x,y,5,Path.Direction.CW);
}
public void mouseUp(float x, float y){
//path.addCircle(x,y,5,Path.Direction.CW);
p.lineTo(x, y);
}
public void draw(Canvas c,Path path){
//paint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(PorterDuff.Mode.CLEAR));
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
paint.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
paint.setStrokeWidth(7);
c.drawPath(p, paint);
}
}
EDIT: Started over for better explanation :)
I am not familiar with Android, in fact I have never used it. Use this code as an example of how to organize your code, rather than a functional code.
class MyView extends View {
private Eraser myEraser;
private Bitmap myBackgroundImage;
private Canvas myForegroundCanvas;
public MyView(Context context, Attributes, attrs) {
myEraser = new Eraser()
myBackgroundImage = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.your_background_name);
Bitmap image = Bitmap.createBitmap(w, h, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888); // the width and height of the view
myForegroundCanvas = new Canvas(image);
}
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
// update your eraser path
return true;
}
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
canvas.drawBitmap(myBackgroundImage, 0, 0, null);
//for (Eraser item : eraserList) {
// if you have multiple eraser, add them to a list
myEraser.draw(myForegroundCanvas);
//}
canvas.drawCanvas(myForegroundCanvas, 0, 0, null);
}
}
The main idea is to keep the separation between your background and foreground images. That way, you could easily change the background and it would be updated. You could also have a reset on the foreground to erase everything, etc.
I hope this helps you.
