Thank you DonManfred

This is excellent @DonManfred.
Lately I've been playing about with ODB2 and the serial library. I could use this library to display the speed that I'm travelling at, revs, engine temperature, boost pressure etc...

 

[DonManfred]

Updated Library to 1.0.1
It was not possible to set the "Units". This is fixed. See first post

 

[Peter Simpson]

That's better @DonManfred, cheers...

Teach me how to use your library as an icon/image in the status bar for my speedometer app

 

[DonManfred]

Jou can use this view wherever you can place a view. You can not use it as image as it is not an image.
Maybe i understand the question wrong...

 

[Johan Schoeman]

Take a screenshot of it (via the IDE) and then import it into for eg Paint or GIMP. Crop it and then save it. Then you can use it as an icon in your status bar.

Thanks but that's not an on the fly in real time "speed". Anyway it was a double meaning question. I know it's a "view". I haven't spent a lot of time on it but unfortunately i wasn't able to successfully use an on the fly image with a notification.

 

[DonManfred]

in real time "speed"

i think you should set the delay to 0
Maybe i need to find a way of disabling the animation (or changing the animationspeed)

Sorry, i was referring to the "taking a screenshot in the ide and use it as an icon" suggestion. I haven't actually even tried the library yet so i have no idea about the animation details.

 

[DonManfred]

"taking a screenshot in the ide and use it as an icon" suggestion

you can use the png in post #3
This png is used in the library example as app icon

This library can not deliver a drawable or bitmap which can be used on other places. A notification icon is a static bitmap

Testing it in one app, just to see how it looks, Im getting a java error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: native typeface cannot be made

I've copied the font folder to my files folder but the error persists

Testing the example app, and would love to donate but I'm getting a java error:

You are compiling the provided example? Is the Ressources folder part of your project? does your files folder contains a fonts folder and inside it there is a digit.ttf?
Or do you create a own example?

I am compiling your example at the moment. I extracted the whole zip as is.

What Android Version does your device have?
Seems like the lib is missing its fontfile
