How to wrap the content of a SurfaceView?

I have surfaceView class that is modeled after this, I populated it with 6 bitmaps. Is there a way to wrap the surfaceView around the bitmaps, instead of it covering the entire screen.

I have try this in my xml file:

<LinearLayout
   xmlns:开发者_如何学运维android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="fill_parent"
   android:orientation="horizontal">

    <com.android.customclasses.Panel
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content">
    </com.android.customclasses.Panel>

</LinearLayout>

but this does not work. it just fill the parent.

Thanks.

I don't think that SurfaceView has a notion of "wrap_content" (other than perhaps interpreting it to mean "fill_parent"). You would have to override onMeasure in your custom class Panel and call setMeasuredDimension with the appropriate size.

If you think about this it makes sense: your bitmaps are not inside the SurfaceView in the view hierarchy. They are simply being drawn by graphics commands to a SurfaceView which has a predetermined size.
