Clear Gesture From Gestureoverlayview In Android

I am using GestureOverlayView to draw any picture I have implemented it successfully,but when i want to draw another picture, I need to clear the previous from the GestureOverlayVi

Solution 1:

These two lines will clear the created gesture from your activity

gesture.cancelClearAnimation();
gesture.clear(true);

Solution 2:

I've never used GestureOverlayView before, but the way I see it you have two possibilities. Either clear the GestureOverlayView through something like this method: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/gesture/GestureOverlayView.html#clear(boolean)

Or clear the already drawn image from your bitmap, which is where the picture is probably being stored. In that case you're going to want to get a reference to your Bitmap and call recycle() on it.

Of course, I've never used either of these classes before, so I'm just guessing off of a quick google.
