I am getting an exception here when I try to bring another view to the front. It happens in the last method of my BoardView class where it says if(lives == 0). Can anybody see w
You need to run the bring to front on the right thread. Try this:
final View v = ((BoardView) getParent()).findViewById(1); v.post(new Runnable(){ public void run(){ v.bringToFront(); } });
See if that works.
