Answer 1

I am not sure but i hope this can help you ...

The Path class holds a set of vector-drawing commands such as lines, rectangles, and curves. Here’s an example that defines a circular path:

circle = new Path();
circle.addCircle(150, 150, 100, Direction.CW);

This defines a circle at position x=150, y=150, with a radius of 100 pixels. Now that we’ve defined the path, let’s use it to draw the circle’s outline plus some text around the inside:

private static final String QUOTE = "Now is the time for all " +
"good men to come to the aid of their country." ;
canvas.drawPath(circle, cPaint);
canvas.drawTextOnPath(QUOTE, circle, 0, 20, tPaint);

You can see the result in this Figure

If you want to get really fancy, Android provides a number of PathEffect classes that let you do things such as apply a random permutation to a path, cause all the line segments along a path to be smoothed out with curves or broken up into segments, and create other effects.
