Hi JonPM, I think Kanaida talked about floating icon. It means you can drag the icon around the screen and it doesn't lock another apps behind. I also want to know how to do it
NJDude, I think that kanaida was talking about a floating label that is always on top of all apps and that lets you interact with the application in the background.
There are some similar applications on the market, so i think that it would be possibile to do!
I'm looking for a similar solution too! :sign0085:
It's the like an 'always on top' panel with no activity behind it...
The strange thing, as far as I know is that android only ever runs a single activity at any time unless i'm mistaken. It's ridiculously customizable as well if you've ever used it, and can be hidden or shown at will. I use it to measure phone temp and cpu usage in games for example.
almost like dark magic , adding a view to the currently focused app and somehow handling it's events via it's own service perhaps???
