Abstract

In this seventh chapter, we will take a closer look at the Android View class and its many subclasses. We already looked at the Android ViewGroup, which is a View subclass, and some of its more mainstream layout container subclasses, and now we are going to take a look at some of Android's View subclasses that we can implement in order to create our user interface widgets and graphic designs within those ViewGroup layout containers.
