[android-developers] Can you avoid redrawing a view that is partially obscured by another view?

Here is my situation: I have two views, a front view and a back view.

The back view is slow to redraw, and updates only occasionally (once a second or so).  The front view is transparent in most parts, fast to draw, and updates at around 60 fps.  Is there any way I can make this work?  It seems like if I invalidate the front view, it will also cause the back view to be invalidated, which means a bunch of expensive redrawing.

Thanks so much,

Justin
