Android: Mirroring a View

Question

I have a view I need to flip vertically, or mirror. There\'s plenty of information out there about mirroring a single bitmap by scaling it by -1 and translating for the offset,

Answer 1

You could simply create a Canvas out of a Bitmap and then invoke your root view's View.draw(Canvas) method. This will give you a snapshot of the view hierarchy in a Bitmap. You then apply the aforementioned transformations to mirror the image.
