SetActive in Unity

I'm using Unity 2D for my game and I'm facing a weird problem. I have a GameObject (an image) in my scene with a button attached to it. When the player is out of the screen, the image that works as a GameOver panel appears and in case of enough coins, you can resume the game. Everything works fine but when the image appears and I click on button to resume, the image doesn't disappear while the function for decreasing number of coins still works.
Here is my script in which di() is for die and but() for button:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using CodeStage.AntiCheat.ObscuredTypes;
using CodeStage.AntiCheat.Detectors;
public class UIManager2 : MonoBehaviour {
public static ObscuredInt coin_score = 0;
public Text coin_text;
public Slider slider;
public Slider slider1;
public Slider slider2;
public GameObject bul;
public bool reverse;
public float timer;
public int delay = 1;
public float speed=0.5f;
public GameObject pause;
public AudioSource[] aud=new AudioSource[3];
void Start () {
coin_score = ObscuredPrefs.GetInt ("Score");
StartCoroutine (elapsed ());
slider1.minValue = 0;
slider1.maxValue = 20;
bul = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag ("Player").GetComponent<Plane19> ().bullet;
}
void Update () {
timer += Time.deltaTime;
if (timer >= delay && reverse == false) {
timer = 0f;
slider2.value++;
}
if (timer >= delay && reverse == true) {
timer = 0f;
slider2.value -= speed;
}
coin_text.text = coin_score.ToString ();
ObscuredPrefs.SetInt ("Score", coin_score);
if (slider2.value == 10) {
bul.SetActive (false);
reverse = true;
}
if (slider2.value == 0) {
bul.SetActive (true);
reverse = false;
}
}
public void di(){
pause.SetActive(true);

Time.timeScale = 0;

}

Time.timeScale=1;
aud[0].Pause();

Why the location of view always resets after I use ObjectAnimator to View.TRANSLATION_X?

I created a simple app, just want when I click a button, the imageview will travel to another position.
Below is the code, but it seems that when I click the button, the imageview always begin with the original position, not the real position. Is there any problem with my code?
public class MainActivity extends Activity{
private ImageView iv;
private Button bt;
private AnimatorSet mAniSet;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.ddd);
iv = (ImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.imageView1);
bt = (Button) this.findViewById(R.id.button1);
mAniSet = new AnimatorSet();
bt.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
int pointOnScreen[] = new int[2];
iv.getLocationOnScreen(pointOnScreen);
ObjectAnimator AniTranslationX = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(iv, View.TRANSLATION_X, pointOnScreen[0]+100);
mAniSet.playTogether(AniTranslationX);
mAniSet.setTarget(iv);
mAniSet.setDuration(200).start();
}
});
}
}

If you create a ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(Object, Property, values) and there is only one value, so the origin of the animation will be 0f.
You can find the source into the class android.animation.KeyFrameSet and the following method:
public static KeyframeSet ofFloat(float... values) {
boolean badValue = false;
int numKeyframes = values.length;
FloatKeyframe keyframes[] = new FloatKeyframe[Math.max(numKeyframes,2)];
if (numKeyframes == 1) {
keyframes[0] = (FloatKeyframe) Keyframe.ofFloat(0f);
keyframes[1] = (FloatKeyframe) Keyframe.ofFloat(1f, values[0]);
if (Float.isNaN(values[0])) {
badValue = true;
}
} else {
keyframes[0] = (FloatKeyframe) Keyframe.ofFloat(0f, values[0]);
for (int i = 1; i < numKeyframes; ++i) {
keyframes[i] =
(FloatKeyframe) Keyframe.ofFloat((float) i / (numKeyframes - 1), values[i]);
if (Float.isNaN(values[i])) {
badValue = true;
}
}
}
if (badValue) {
Log.w("Animator", "Bad value (NaN) in float animator");
}
return new FloatKeyframeSet(keyframes);
}
You can see, with only one value, the start of the animation is 0f (keyframes[0]).
If you put 2 values, your animation will start from the first value and stop at the second:
ObjectAnimator AniTranslationX = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(iv, View.TRANSLATION_X, pointOnScreen[0], pointOnScreen[0] + 100);
With 3 or more values, the animation will reach all these values over the time of the animation.

Displaying a sequence of images with a time delay

I wanted to display 9 images one after the other. I have included the 9 images as an array:
imageHolders = new ArrayList<ImageView>();
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgOne));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgTwo));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgThree));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgFour));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgFive));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgSix));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgSeven));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgEight));
imageHolders.add((ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.imgNine));
This is what I have tried:
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
int currentImage = 0;
int nextImage = 0;
// Logic to change the images
for (final ImageView imageView : imageHolders) {
currentImage = Integer.parseInt(imageView.getTag().toString());
if (currentImage > 1) {
nextImage = currentImage - 1;
} else {
nextImage = 9;
}
imageView.setTag(""+nextImage);
new CountDownTimer(10000, 1000) {
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished) {
}
public void onFinish() {
imageView.setVisibility(VISIBLE);
}
}.start();
}
super.handleMessage(msg);
}
}
There is a delay between the first and the second images. I am not able to introduce a delay between the rest. I have no clue about introducing the delay. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

you could just use AnimationDrawable which does this for you , and allows you to set a duration of time (in milliseconds) using android:duration attribute .

The AnimationDrawable is probably the best answer, but for another solution you can look at AsyncTask.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html
Then, you can in the background just sleep for some set amount of time, then display the next image.
You may want an event though to handle when this task is done, and in the listener you call the next one.

If you want to make just a simple static animation (all images at the same position) you can use AnimationDrawable but you can't easly change it dynamically - like change speed or something.
I just wrote a simple class for this so I can set multiple animations for one ImageView and change speed.
public class ImageSequence extends ImageView {
ArrayList<Drawable> draws = new ArrayList<Drawable>();
ArrayList<Integer> bnds = new ArrayList<Integer>(); //bounds of sequences - index of first and last frame.
ArrayList<String> names = new ArrayList<String>(); //sequences names.
Timer timer = new Timer(true);
TimerTask task;
int p = -1; //current playback position.
int cS = -1; //current sequence.
public ImageSequence(Context context) {
super(context);
createTask();
}
public void addSequence(String name, int[] res){
names.add(name);
bnds.add(draws.size());
bnds.add(draws.size() + res.length - 1);
for (int i = 0; i < res.length; i++){
draws.add(getContext().getResources().getDrawable(res[i]));
}
}
public void play(String sequence, float speed){
cS = -1;
for(int i = 0; i < names.size(); i++){
if(names.get(i) == sequence){ cS = i; break;}
}
if(cS<0) return;
p = -1;
task.run();
task.cancel();
if(speed <= 0) return;
createTask();
timer.schedule(task, (long) (1000/speed), (long) (1000/speed));
}
public void stop(){
task.cancel();
}
public void cancelTimer(){
timer.cancel();
}
private void createTask() {
task = new TimerTask(){
public void run() {
p++;
mHandler.obtainMessage(1).sendToTarget();
}
};
}
public Handler mHandler = new Handler() {
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
int l = p;
if(l > bnds.get(cS*2+1) || l < bnds.get(cS*2)) l = bnds.get(cS*2);
p = l;
ImageSequence.this.setImageDrawable(draws.get(l));
}
};
}
From outside you can use it like this:
seq.addSequence("orange", new int[]{R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_orange, R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_off});
seq.addSequence("green", new int[]{R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_green, R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_off});
seq.addSequence("red", new int[]{R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_red, R.drawable.ic_oval_diode_off});
seq.play("red", 4);
I'm not really experienced in Android and Java but it works and it do the job for me. Hope it will help someone.

Android Gallery freezes screen until scrolled

I have a full-screen custom Gallery. Elements of the gallery have buttons and other interactive areas. Some user interface is done through dialog boxes that pop in front of the gallery; when a dialog box is dismissed, the user is taken back to the gallery.
Most of the time, this works fine. However, sometimes, after a dialog box is dismissed, the buttons stop taking user input. The gallery, on the other hand, still scrolls. What's even more bizarre, as soon as I scroll the gallery, the system processes those clicks I thought failed (pops up a dialog, etc.).
It is easy to say that the main UI thread is locked. Why is it locked? How do I unlock it? Any help will be appreciated. Below is the full code of the class.
UPDATE. One of the elements within the Gallery is a HorizontalScrollView. When I try scroll it, mouse messages come through; I stepped through them and saw that the scrollBy() and invalidate() are properly called. Then I printed out the message queue. The only event that passes through the main loop is 1006, which I assume is the Touch event. The Draw event, the 1000, never makes it. Once I scroll the Gallery back and forth -- lo and behold -- the message queue starts receiving the 1000's, so the HorizontalScrollView scrolls fine!
So the question becomes: what stops the Draw events, and how do I make sure they are sent to the queue?
