An overlay is an extra layer that sits on top of a View (the "host view") which is drawn after all other content in that view (including children, if the view is a ViewGroup).

Remarks
An overlay is an extra layer that sits on top of a View (the "host view") which is drawn after all other content in that view (including children, if the view is a ViewGroup). Interaction with the overlay layer is done by adding and removing drawables.
An overlay requested from a ViewGroup is of type ViewGroupOverlay, which also supports adding and removing views.

Constructors
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ViewOverlay(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership) |
A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime. |
Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Class |
Returns the runtime class of this |
| Handle |
The handle to the underlying Android instance. (Inherited from Object) |
| JniIdentityHashCode |
Gets the identity hash code assigned to this Java peer by the interop runtime. (Inherited from Object) |
| JniManagedPeerState | (Inherited from JavaObject) |
| JniPeerMembers |
Gets the JNI peer metadata used by the .NET for Android binding runtime. |
| PeerReference |
Gets the JNI object reference for this Java peer. (Inherited from Object) |

Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Add(Drawable) |
Adds a |
| Clear() |
Removes all content from the overlay. |
| Clone() |
Creates and returns a copy of this object. (Inherited from Object) |
| Construct(JniObjectReference, JniObjectReferenceOptions) | (Inherited from JavaObject) |
| Dispose() |
Releases the resources held by this Java peer. (Inherited from Object) |
| Dispose(Boolean) |
Releases the resources held by this Java peer. (Inherited from Object) |
| DisposeUnlessReferenced() | (Inherited from JavaObject) |
| Equals(Object) | (Inherited from JavaObject) |
| Equals(Object) |
Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. (Inherited from Object) |
| GetHashCode() |
Returns a hash code value for the object. (Inherited from Object) |
| JavaFinalize() |
Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. (Inherited from Object) |
| Notify() |
Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. (Inherited from Object) |
| NotifyAll() |
Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. (Inherited from Object) |
| Remove(Drawable) |
Removes the specified Drawable from the overlay. Removing a Drawable that was not added with add(Drawable) is a no-op. Passing null parameter will result in an IllegalArgumentException being thrown. |
| SetHandle(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership) |
Sets the Handle property. (Inherited from Object) |
| SetPeerReference(JniObjectReference, JniObjectReferenceOptions) | (Inherited from JavaObject) |
| ToArray<T>() |

| ToString() |
Returns a string representation of the object. (Inherited from Object) |
| UnregisterFromRuntime() |
Unregisters this Java peer from the interop runtime. (Inherited from Object) |
| Wait() |
Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>. (Inherited from Object) |
| Wait(Int64, Int32) |
Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. (Inherited from Object) |
| Wait(Int64) |
Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. (Inherited from Object) |
