Apps Stop Surface View being destroyed

[cheops2006]

Hi,

I have created a game that uses surfaceview and need input for player to enter there name so I created a View xml that allows the player to enter there name with the virtual keyboard.

The problem I have is when I call setContentView(nameView) it destroys the surfaceview and everything associated with it is there away to preserve the surfaceview as it gets rid of all the gfx that have been loaded.

Thanks

Adrian
