Magnet

This library enables you to create a window icon similar to Facebooks chat icon, and also similar to the Link Bubble app. See the demo project for sample implementations.

The library takes care of all the touching and dragging of the window icon, leaving you with callbacks so you can save your time doing the important stuff.

How to create a Magnet

Use the required permission

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>

Use the magnet builder in your Activity or Service

ImageView iconView = new ImageView(this);
iconView.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
mMagnet = new Magnet.Builder(this)
        .setIconView(iconView) // required
        .setIconCallback(this)
        .setRemoveIconResId(R.drawable.trash)
        .setRemoveIconShadow(R.drawable.bottom_shadow)
        .setShouldFlingAway(true)
        .setShouldStickToWall(true)
        .setRemoveIconShouldBeResponsive(true)
        .build();
mMagnet.show();


        ...

mMagnet.destroy(); // to remove the magnet

Use the callbacks per your needs

    @Override
    public void onFlingAway() {
        Log.i(TAG, "onFlingAway");
    }

    @Override
    public void onMove(float x, float y) {
        Log.i(TAG, "onMove(" + x + "," + y + ")");
    }

    @Override
    public void onIconClick(View icon, float iconXPose, float iconYPose) {
        Log.i(TAG, "onIconClick(..)");
    }

    @Override
    public void onIconDestroyed() {
        Log.i(TAG, "onIconDestroyed()");
    }
