I am trying to animate several shapes(paths) by drawing them on the surface holders canvas.
At first I was drawing them as paths and everything was fine, the movement was smooth.
As I increased the number of objects(shapes) the performance decreased and I made some
tests to see if instead of drawing shapes drawing bitmaps is faster. And.. drawing
bitmaps seems to be considerable faster (less computation maybe) BUT the movement is
not smooth. It looks like the bitmaps always move from pixel to pixel instead of using anti alias to, I dont know, draw states as half pixel.
The signature of the method looks like :
canvas.drawBitmap(cloudBitmap, float left, float top, Paint p);
which suggests that I should be able to draw a bitmap at 0.5f pixels.
Any idea why ?
