Answer 1

You could just use the imageView's image cache. It will render the entire view as it is layed out (scaled,bordered with a background etc) to a new bitmap.

just make sure it built.

imageView.buildDrawingCache();
Bitmap bmap = imageView.getDrawingCache();

there's your bitmap as the screen saw it.
