Android : taking Screenshot of the selected area programmatically

Question

My code is as follow :

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main         


        

Answer 1

You can wrap the contents in a layout for example LinearLayout and follow the above code for taking screenshot by using the methods on the wrapped layout.

 Bitmap bitmap;
 ViewGroup v1 = findViewById(R.id.layout_id);
 v1.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
 bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(v1.getDrawingCache());
 v1.setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);
