Android set FrameLayout as background

Question

I have two images, and I need to put them one on another, that can be made using FrameLayout, as I found in this answer. However, I need to set that layout as background to one of my tabTitle, how it can be done?

You can do that programmatically,

myFrameLayout.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
myFrameLayout.buildDrawingCache();
Bitmap bitmap = myFrameLayout.getDrawingCache();

myAnotherLayout.setBackgroundDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(bitmap)));

@Niko I tried this got but bitmap size is as my Screen size , and framelayout height width are grater then screen – PriyankaChauhan Nov 02 '16 at 10:25
@pcpriyanka Thats is tricky case because platform draws only to visible rect. Also consuming such a large bitmap using this method may easily cause OOM. – Niko Nov 02 '16 at 10:30
@Niko what can I do for that? any idea ? – PriyankaChauhan Nov 02 '16 at 10:32
@Niko I am creating one app which include draw crop rotation and etc what I want to do is image edit and save as the original size and quality – PriyankaChauhan Nov 02 '16 at 10:34
@pcpriyanka you could dig into this library for some help: https://arthurhub.github.io/Android-Image-Cropper/ – Niko Nov 02 '16 at 10:59
