Is there any modeless dialog in android, like what google maps shows when touched?

Question

I want a widget that can interact with user, but will not block the activity ,just like google maps does when some place in the screen is touched. Did any body know how to implement it? I already know toast、alert,even activity with dialog theme ,seems that they all not meet my request. Many thanks.

Answer 1

I believe these are built using the PopupWindow class.
