Take a screenshot from WebView in Android

Question

I have an html source and with WebView I load this source with:

WebView webView = (WebView) new WebView(getActivity()); 
        webView = (WebView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.webView1);

        webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        String sourceHtml = (String) this.getActivity().getIntent().getExtras().get(ROW_ID1);


        webView.loadData(sourceHtml, "text/html", "UTF-8");

Now I want to save this WebView in BitMap or another in SdCard, I follow some guidelines, but it never works, how can I do this?

Answer 1

Try using the function capturePicture:

Picture picture = view.capturePicture();
Bitmap  b = Bitmap.createBitmap( picture.getWidth(),
picture.getHeight(), Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
Canvas c = new Canvas( b );

picture.draw( c );
FileOutputStream fos = null;
try {

    fos = new FileOutputStream( "mnt/sdcard/screenshot.jpg" );
        if ( fos != null )
        {
            b.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, fos);
            fos.close();
        }
    }
catch(Exception e) {}
