Move ImageView around inside RelativeLayout

Question

I need to move an ImageView (or anything else, for that matter) around inside a RelativeLayout. Does any one know the proper way to do this?

Answer 1

Makesure ImageView's layout_height and layout_width is set to fill_parent. Then do:

To move a view, use Matrix. It is very handy.

Matrix matrix = new Matrix();

matrix.reset();

matrix.postTranslate(x, y);

imageview.setScaleType(ScaleType.MATRIX);
imageview.setImageMatrix(matrix);
