B4A Library FabricView - make your own drawings / writing with your finger

It wraps this Github project (requested by @MarcoRome). Posting the following:
1. B4A project
2. B4A library files - copy them to your additional library folder.

Once you have made your drawing you can click on "Copy" to copy it to an Imageview (from where you can do with it whatever you want) or click "Clear" to clear the drawing area and start drawing from scratch.

@MarcoRome, see what else you think should be added and if the project that I am wrapping will allow to add such features I will try and make them available to be used in B4A.

Sample Code:
B4X:
#Region  Project Attributes
    #ApplicationLabel: FabricView
    #VersionCode: 1
    #VersionName:
    'SupportedOrientations possible values: unspecified, landscape or portrait.
    #SupportedOrientations: unspecified
    #CanInstallToExternalStorage: False
#End Region

#Region  Activity Attributes
    #FullScreen: False
    #IncludeTitle: True
#End Region

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

End Sub

Sub Globals
    'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
    'These variables can only be accessed from this module.

    Private fv1 As FabricView
    Private Button1 As Button
    Private ImageView1 As ImageView
    Private Button2 As Button
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    Activity.LoadLayout("main")
   
    'fv1.BackgroundMode = fv1.BACKGROUND_STYLE_NOTEBOOK_PAPER
    'fv1.BackgroundMode = fv1.BACKGROUND_STYLE_BLANK
    fv1.BackgroundMode = fv1.BACKGROUND_STYLE_GRAPH_PAPER
    fv1.DrawColor = Colors.Red
    fv1.DrawBackgroundColor = Colors.LightGray
    fv1.NoteBookLeftLineColor = Colors.Blue
    fv1.NoteBookLeftLinePadding = 60
    fv1.FabricLineColor = Colors.Yellow
    ImageView1.Bitmap = Null

End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume

End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)

End Sub


Sub Button1_Click
   
    ImageView1.Bitmap = fv1.CanvasBitmap
   
End Sub

Sub Button2_Click
   
    fv1.cleanPage
    ImageView1.Bitmap = Null
   
End Sub

Could it be possible to define these variables next time someone does some changes to this library


// Interactive Modes
public static final int DRAW_MODE = 0;
public static final int SELECT_MODE = 1; // TODO Support Object Selection.
public static final int ROTATE_MODE = 2; // TODO Support Object ROtation.
public static final int LOCKED_MODE = 3;

Sometimes you don't want the user to be able to draw and interactive mode be change
