1. In your main activity, set as the main view the GLSurfaceView object using the setContentView method.
2. Then, add the SurfaceView being used to draw the camera.
3. Add other SurfaceViews to the display as necessary.

I have not been able to locate a working example where the views are created in XML, even so, this must be possible. I tried modifying the CameraView constructor to include a surfaceview ie CameraView(Context context, SurfaceView surfaceView) but this just results in crashes. Any suggestions… Thanks

I used:

@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
glView.onResume();
glView.bringToFront();
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
glView.onPause();
finish();
}

as a workaround. The issue is called “context loss”.

@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
glView.onResume();
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
glSurface.onPause();
}
but that doesn’t work. The camera view comes back up onResume, but the glSurfaceView doesn’t.
