Customize Camera View for Android using zbar

Question

I am new in android development. My app should activate the camera to scan a QR code and decode it to a string. This works fine, but I have one more requirement: to present

Answer 1

I think it's easier then you thought:

In the example code provided by the ZBar guy there are those two lines in the onCreate() method:

FrameLayout preview = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.cameraPreview);
preview.addView(mPreview);

which are responsible for adding the "preview view" to the camerPreview Layout.

Find the mentioned lines in your code, create a new ImageView and also add it to the preview-Layout like this:

ImageView v = new ImageView(this);
v.setImageResource(R.drawable.icon);
preview.addView(v);

Adjust the size and the position of your view v and you are done!
