Use one animation object for multi views

I want set alpha animation to views but with one object without create many object like this fadeIn1 , fadeIn2 , fadeIn3 etc
View1 , View2 , View3
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(0, 1);
fadeIn.setStartOffset(1000);
fadeIn.setDuration(1000);
view1.startAnimation(fadeIn); //I want show this after 1 second
fadeIn.setStartOffset(1500);
view2.startAnimation(fadeIn); //I want show this after 1.5 second
fadeIn.setStartOffset(2000);
view3.startAnimation(fadeIn); //I want show this after 2 second
But all views shows after 2 second together , Why ?

Use AnimatiorSet for this
Note: The below code was in kotlin.
First create an function which returns an animator by taking view
private fun getAnimation(view: View): Animator {
return ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(view, "alpha", 0f, 1f).apply {
duration = 1000
}
}
Then after user AnimatorSet.playSequentially to play one after other.
AnimatorSet().apply {
playSequentially(listOf(getAnimation(btn_1),getAnimation(btn_2),getAnimation(btn_3)))
interpolator = AccelerateInterpolator()
start()
}
Please free to ask any query in comment section, I'll try to answer as soon as possible :)

You need AnimationSet ex:
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(0, 1);
fadeIn.setDuration(1000);
Animation fadeOut = new AlphaAnimation(1, 0);
fadeOut.setStartOffset(1000);
fadeOut.setDuration(1000);
AnimationSet animation = new AnimationSet(true);
animation.addAnimation(fadeIn);
animation.addAnimation(fadeOut);
view.startAnimation(animation);

How to change animation speed when is playing?

I have Animation and i need to change duration or speed in run.
How to do this?
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(1, 0);
fadeIn.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator()); //add this
fadeIn.setDuration(800);
fadeIn.setFillEnabled(true);
fadeIn.setFillAfter(true);
bt1.startAnimation(fadeIn);

You can use Interpolators to have a variable speed during animation. Example can be found here.

I think you need two animations with different speeds. After the first has finished, the second gets played.
Animation anim1 = new AlphaAnimation (1, 0.5F);
anim1.setDuration (600); //The slow part.
//set other things for anim1
Animation anim2 = new AlphaAnimation (0.5F, 0);
anim2.setDuration (200); //The fast part.
//set other things for anim2

Animation set for image view

I want multiple animations to be played on the same ImageView. I'm using an animation set but it never fades in. But it does rotate. Can somebody tell me what I'm missing ?
AnimationSet s = new AnimationSet(false);//false mean dont share interpolators
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(0, 1);
fadeIn.setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator()); // add this
fadeIn.setDuration(fadeInDuration);
iv.setAnimation(fadeIn);
iv.startAnimation(fadeIn);
RotateAnimation anim = new RotateAnimation(0.0f, 360.0f , Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, .5f, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, .5f);
anim.setInterpolator(new LinearInterpolator());
anim.setRepeatCount(Animation.INFINITE);
anim.setDuration(800);
s.addAnimation(fadeIn);
s.addAnimation(anim);
iv.startAnimation(s);

You are missing:
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(0, 1);
fadeIn.setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator()); // add this
fadeIn.setDuration(fadeInDuration);
fadeIn.setFillEnabled(true); // to apply setFillBefore and setFillAfter
fadeIn.setFillBefore(true); // it means that at start of animation you set alpha="0"
fadeIn.setFillAfter(false);
iv.setAnimation(fadeIn);
iv.startAnimation(fadeIn);
Also, in your styles you must remove alpha="0"
AlphaAnimation is working on your image as it is. So if you set alpha="0" it works between this 0. If alpha="1" or without it (when style default is alpha="1"), it works between 0-1.

Android Fade in Fade out Together

I am trying to make blinking image button.
I was thinking about to use fade-in and fade-out , but I cant use it together at 1 Image Button. Following code blinks only once:
Animation fadeIn = new AlphaAnimation(0, 1);
fadeIn.setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator());
fadeIn.setDuration(1000);
Animation fadeOut = new AlphaAnimation(1, 0);
fadeOut.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
fadeOut.setStartOffset(1000);
fadeOut.setDuration(1000);
AnimationSet animation = new AnimationSet(false);
animation.addAnimation(fadeIn);
animation.addAnimation(fadeOut);
this.setAnimation(animation);`

Just add this:
AnimationSet animation = new AnimationSet(false);
...
animation.setRepeatCount(Animation.INFINITE);
this.setAnimation(animation);
Obviously, adjust the count as needed.

set the animation to the activity without xml file

Hi I want to set the animation to an activity without xml file.Please give me some suggestions on this topic.Thanks in advance

AnimationSet myAnimation = new AnimationSet(true);
// Create a translate animation
/* TranslateAnimation animation=new TranslateAnimation(0,0,237,0);
animation.setDuration(250);
// Add each animation to the set
myAnimation.addAnimation(animation);*/
ScaleAnimation scale = new ScaleAnimation((float)0.5, (float)1, (float)0.5, (float)1);
scale.setFillAfter(true);
scale.setDuration(500);
<activity name>.startAnimation(scale);

private Animation createAnimation() {
final Animation animation = new AlphaAnimation(1, 0);
animation.setDuration(1000);
animation.setInterpolator(new AccelerateDecelerateInterpolator());
return animation;
}
Simple alpha animation, the way to create others is pretty much the same.
Use view.startAnimation(yourAnimation) to start animation, and yourAnimation.reset() before reusing the same animation again.
P.S. Maybe I misunderstood you, and you want an animation between activity changes?
