title: Android: How to use the onDraw method in a class extending Activity?
body: <p>As a beginner, I've been building a simple counter application using a simple layout xml and a class called 'Counter', which derives (extends) from the class Activity.</p>
  
  <p>Now, I want to load a bitmap (png file) to place next to the counter. I've been reading up on onDraw(), but it requires the class to extend 'View'. I've been trying to create an object of this class to use this instead, to no avail. I'm a bit stumped about this concept, how to do it easily. If anyone could explain, I'd appreciate it.</p>
