Get a continuous touch coordinates

Question

I want to continuously keep receiving the touch coordinates when finger is in the same exact place meaning getting the

CASE.MOVE_DOWN

Continuously.

Now the problem is android only gives

CASE.MOVE_UP
CASE.MOVE_DOWN
CASE.MOVE_MOVE

So is there anyway to getting Continuous touch..???

yeah i know but i want to keep sending the value where it is touched continuously..?? how can i acheive that i tried while loop but that crashed the app — Puneet Sharma, Apr 06 '16 at 09:51
so use some `Handler` and continuously send `Message`s to it — pskink, Apr 06 '16 at 09:59

Try using this code:

double placeX, placeY;
yourView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        placeX = event.getX(); //Store the coordinates of the touch in the meantime
        placeY = event.getY();
        return true;
    }
});
