[B4X] Another New View

[Star-Dust]

Since when I write serious libraries it doesn't arouse much interest, today I had a free hour and I created a new view (B4X). (Views always like)

Here is a preview:

- - - -

For those who don't understand, it's a draggable panel from below that blurs the one below. Useful for menus or to change the page ... we'll see ... I'm still deciding

Yes you should write non-serious views too, like today's ?

Unfortunately it is the truth. Views are the most popular, for a developer like me it's not exciting

Well that's how we human are.
Study is always boring though important and required for benefit of life itself.

It's a good idea but someone already had it (not me) - but he didn't make / publish a library of it, though.

I just wanted to prove one thing, especially to myself: I still have a few bytes of memory, yahooo ? (at least visual memory)

very good guys. there are other implementations that can help.

B4X:

[B4X] [BitmapCreator] BlurredDialog

Edit: Don't use this class. Similar feature is implemented in B4XDialog (XUI Views). Set Dialog.BlurBackground =True This class uses BitmapCreator to blur the background and show a panel at the center of the screen. It is compatible with B4A, B4J and B4i. Call Show to blur the...

B4A:

Blur Effect Demo

My code is hideous and needs to be cleaned but I thought to post a demo here as many people want to know how to do these effects. This is a demo that uses some trickery to create blurry effects that look quite good in apps (for e.g. etsy) Can be used on slideout drawers, scrolling listviews etc...

I had a free hour and I created a new view (B4X)

a B4X library within 1 hour? Respect. ?

a B4X library within 1 hour? Respect. ?

For the first draft of the views I never took more than 2 hours. Obviously I don't count the various updates that have certainly taken longer

Complex libraries (http, 3D, etc.) took weeks for a first working version
