Hi, I have a big background image for my views's background, which also can be tiled (it's repeadable). When switching from one Activity to another i want the background to behave like on the homescreen (the background moves only a bit, but the foreground moves one screen with).
Is this possible and how?
Here is my current background definition:
Manifest.xml:
<application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/MyAppStyle">
styles.xml:
<style name="MyAppStyle" parent="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/window_background_descriptor</item>
window_background_descriptor.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:src="@drawable/window_background" android:tileMode="repeat" />
