title: Android Canvas.drawText
body: <p>I have a view, I'm drawing with the Canvas object in the onDraw(Canvas canvas) method. My code is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Paint paint = new Paint();
  paint.setColor(Color.WHITE);
  paint.setStyle(Style.FILL);
  canvas.drawPaint(paint);
  
  paint.setColor(android.R.color.black);
  paint.setTextSize(20);
  canvas.drawText("Some Text", 10, 25, paint);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is the text doesn't show through the background, what am I doing wrong? If I remove the canvas.drawPaint(paint) and paint.setColor(android.R.color.black) you can see the text on the screen.....</p>
