Screenshot of webview in android

Question

I have used chartiq in my android app which draws chart.

However when I try to capture the screenshot of the webview through code it shows white screen.

This issue is on devices running v4.4.3 and above.It works perfectly fine on emulator.

Take the screenshot after the WebView finishes loading otherwise you will get a blank screen. — sasikumar, Aug 04 '15 at 06:26

In my case android:hardwareAccelerated="false" in manifest caused scroll problem in webview.

You may call webview.invalidate() before to take screenshot.

Or try this webview.setLayerType(View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE, null)
