this will create an image of the view

public static Bitmap loadBitmapFromView(View v) {   
    Bitmap b = Bitmap.createBitmap( 
        v.getLayoutParams().width, v.getLayoutParams().height, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);           
         Canvas c = new Canvas(b);
         v.layout(0, 0, v.getLayoutParams().width, v.getLayoutParams().height);
         v.draw(c);   
      return b;
     }

pass it your layout, and save the returned bitmap as a file somewhere.
