Setting background drawable

[lukaIvanic]

First of all I would like to thank you for this amazing library, it's SO easy to use and the results are marvellous. It's also very easily customizable. Now for this issue, when I try to set a background drawable the particles don't appear. I tried setting the background colour to transparent and have a drawable somewhere behind, but instead of transparent, it's black. Do you have any idea how to solve this? It would be greatly appreciated!

init { obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, defStyleAttr) if (holder != null) holder.addCallback(this) hasSurface = false setZOrderOnTop(true) holder.setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT) }

This works if you do not have something on top of the SurfaceView, otherwise the SurfaceView will show on top of everything due to setZOrderOnTop set to true. An example would be the ParticleView library and a button in a middle (the button won't show).

An alternative would be to change the SurfaceView implementation to TextureView:

• Change the listener to TextureView.SurfaceTextureListener and implement the methods accordingly (mainly the onSurfaceTextureAvailable and onSurfaceTextureDestroyed
• Create a Surface instance so you can get the canvas and draw. Should be initialized in onSurfaceTextureAvailable and released in onSurfaceTextureDestroyed

This is how I achieved transparent background. JAVA Solution, hope this helps someone.

ParticleView particleView = findViewById(R.id.particles_view);
particleView.setZOrderOnTop(true);
SurfaceHolder sfhTrackHolder = particleView.getHolder();
sfhTrackHolder.setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT);
