Android: Draw Canvas On Webview

I am using a WebView to display an image that is in my resources, using a WebView because I need it to be zoomable. Dynamically I need to be able to draw points on the image, it is

Solution 1:

In you last line, you are giving it a new canvas (which will not have map.png loaded).

What you should do is:

• Create a new class which extends WebView

• override its onDraw() method, like:

  publicclassMyWebViewextendsWebView{
  
      @OverrideprotectedvoidonDraw(Canvas canvas) {
          super.onDraw(canvas);
          canvas.drawPoint(yourPoint);
     }
  }
  

Make its variable:

MyWebViewmWebView=newMyWebView(this);
        mWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        mWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_res/drawable/map.png");

add this view to your Main View of your layout.

       myMainView.add(wv);

Done!
