I'm starting with Android Wear and I want to make a circle animation, making grow. I know how to do it, I think, but it's doing it very very slow, hope you can help me
I have this class variable
Paint mAnimation;
intialized on the method OnCreate
mAnimation = new Paint(Paint.ANTI_ALIAS_FLAG);
mAnimation.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL);
mAnimation.setColor(Color.GREEN);
and on the OnDraw method I have
@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas, Rect bounds) {
int width = bounds.width();
int height = bounds.height();
float centerX = width / 2f;
float centerY = height / 2f;
// Draw the background.
canvas.drawRect(0, 0, bounds.width(), bounds.height(), mBackgroundPaint);
canvas.drawCircle(0, centerY, radiusPlus, mAnimation);
radiusPlus += 20;
}
The animation is "correct", but is very slow, like if was paused.
Thanks!!
EDIT
I found a example and now I finally found why. I didn't invalidate the view at the end of the OnDraw. Now It's working fine. Thanks.
@Override
public void onDraw(Canvas canvas, Rect bounds) {
int width = bounds.width();
int height = bounds.height();
float centerX = width / 2f;
float centerY = height / 2f;
// Draw the background.
canvas.drawRect(0, 0, bounds.width(), bounds.height(), mBackgroundPaint);
canvas.drawCircle(0, centerY, radiusPlus, mAnimation);
radiusPlus += 5;
if (isVisible() && !isInAmbientMode()) {
invalidate();
}
}
