@ScionofIkshvaku How to get Motion event value in imageButton.setOnLongClickListener ? — Mercy Angel, May 05 '15 at 12:47
you can get the values using `ev.getX()` or `ev.getX()` on `MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE` — Amrut Bidri, May 05 '15 at 13:30

Answering from here:

final Handler handler = new Handler(); 
Runnable mLongPressed = new Runnable() { 
    public void run() { 
        Log.i("", "Long press!");
        if(myEvent!=null)
        {
           int requiredXvalue=myEvent.getX();               
           int requiredYvalue=myEvent.getY();

        }
    }   
};
MotionEvent myEvent;
@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event, MapView mapView){
    if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
    {
        handler.postDelayed(mLongPressed, 1000);
        myEvent=event;
    }
    if((event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE)||(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP))
        handler.removeCallbacks(mLongPressed);
    return super.onTouchEvent(event, mapView);
}

OR

you can use Gesture Detector as answered here:

final GestureDetector gestureDetector = new GestureDetector(new GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener() {
    public void onLongPress(MotionEvent e) {
        Log.e("", "Longpress detected");
        int requiredXvalue=e.getX();               
        int requiredYvalue=e.getY();
    }
});

public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    return gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event);
};

Am using imageView on relative Layout. Which detail I have to provide instead of MapView. – Mercy Angel May 07 '15 at 05:06
provide ImageView object – Amrut Bidri May 07 '15 at 05:55
'Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event, ImageView btn) { if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) { handler.postDelayed(mLongPressed, 1000); myevent=event; } if((event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE)||(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP)) handler.removeCallbacks(mLongPressed); return onTouchEvent(event,btn); }' Shows the error in @Override – Mercy Angel May 07 '15 at 06:24
you need to set a `TouchListener` for your image view – Amrut Bidri May 07 '15 at 07:03

Next step Overlay another imageView(Mark) during the onTouch. In my case, I need onTouch to perform Zoom and longTouch to place the imageView. After placing the imageView, Performing the action. – Mercy Angel May 07 '15 at 07:55
I have tried your code. Both actions performed in onTouch itself. – Mercy Angel May 07 '15 at 08:11

         imageButton.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() { 

                    @Override
                    public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                        return false;
                    }
                });

I believe in this case `onLongClick` should actually return `true`, as the touch event should be consumed – Ed Holloway-George May 05 '15 at 11:28
