Title Body

I'm currently working with graphics and paths, and I can successufully display whatever I want. But instead of drawing a line directly on my SurfaceView, I'd like to draw it progressively in an animation. What I've done so far is to create a Path and then to use PathMeasure to retrieve the coordinates progressively along the path. Here is basically what I've done so far PathMeasure pm = new PathMeasure(myPath, false); float position = 0; float end = pm.getLength(); float[] coord = {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}; while (position < end){ Matrix m = new Matrix(); // put the current path position coordinates into the matrix pm.getMatrix(position, m, PathMeasure.POSITION_MATRIX_FLAG | PathMeasure.TANGENT_MATRIX_FLAG); // put the matrix data into the coord array (coord[2] = x and coord[5] = y) m.getValues(coord); ???? position += 1; } The question marks is where I'm stuck. I want to draw the path progressively and see it animated on the screen. I couldn't find much info about it on the internet, so any clue would be much appreciated if you have already come across the same situation. The final effect I want to create is like a pencil drawing progressively a text automatically.
