I would like to implement a time settings wheel widget like the one iPhone has (http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/art/ui_datetimepicker.jpg).

  1. Should I use GlSurfaceView or just extend View?
  2. Should I make it as a compound View (it would consist of several Views) or draw everything on the Canvas in onDraw?
  3. In case I won't extend GlSurfaceView, how to do (smooth) animations? Start a Thread and call postInvalidate()?

I know about this, but it doesn't have animations and when I move the wheel with my finger it doesn't move smoothly but "jumps".

Ah good to know, I was looking at using this for a project but hadn't tested it out yet. I'll keep looking and post here if I find anything better.
