I'm trying to hide hide all contents of my screen for 10 seconds with a white image but it seems that the text appears on top of the white image no matter what. Is there a way to hide the textView (or any other imageViews in the future) using the white image? Thanks!
Here's my main activity class:
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final ImageView splash = findViewById(R.id.imageView);
splash.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
splash.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
splash.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}, 10000);
}}
Here's my XML file:
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Hello World!"
android:textSize="24sp"
app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="0.544"
app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
app:srcCompat="@drawable/white" />
<TextView
android:id="@+id/textView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginStart="172dp"
android:layout_marginTop="268dp"
android:text="TextToHide"
android:textSize="36sp"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
