Android: How to create bed design in xml?

Actually i am able to create this design by using RotateAnimation but getting problem when i want to change it and applying any animation.We know, Animation does not alter the actual properties of the View, it only animates it. So every time i am facing the issue like :
animation get back to its real state after finishing the animation and
start every time from initial position.
So to avoid this i want to apply static design in xml . I tried using android:rotation but not getting as per the exact requirement.
suggestions and helps will be mostly appreciable. Please suggest.

I know android:fillAfter="true" causes many problems!
Another option would be you could add animation listeners to the animation and once that animation finished, you manually set final transfomrations to the views.
yourAnimation.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
#Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
}
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
/* Here, you could set them manually */
}
#Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
}
});

Android fragment animation first time stuck

I am doing an animation inside a fragment.
I have 2 views on top of each other, one of them set on View.GONE.
when I press a button I want my 2nd fragment to translate animation from the bottom to top.
I am doing it fine and it's working great,
the problem is that in my first run, the xml view is gone, but he is in the same Y he is suppose to be.
so the first animation I do isn't doing anything, just switch from GONE to VISIBLE, after that, I press dismiss and the fragment goes away and comes back just like I want too.
my problem is just the first run.
how can I set my view Y to be 100% below my screen?
here's the code I use :
private void moreCustomAnimation() {
int yOffset = moreMenuFrameLayout.getMeasuredHeight();
TranslateAnimation moveAnim = new TranslateAnimation(0, 0, yOffset, 0);
moveAnim.setDuration(500);
moveAnim.setFillAfter(true);
blackView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
moreMenuFrameLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
moreMenuFrameLayout.startAnimation(moveAnim);
moveAnim.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
#Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
}
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
}
#Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
}
});
}
on the way out of the screen I use the same code just switch the
yOffset to the other Y integer, and set the view to GONE at animation end.
thanks a lot in advance for any help !

You can use the onGlobalLayout event to set the position of the view.
Like this:
moreMenuFrameLayout.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
#Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
moreMenuFrameLayout.setTranslationY(moreMenuFrameLayout.getMeasuredHeight());
moreMenuFrameLayout.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
}
});
This event happens when your views get their actual size and position before being drawn to the screen. However, they happen every time the view is drawn so you must remember to remove the listener right after the first time.
HTH

First time you can add the 'yOffset' value to the view orginal points
moreMenuFrameLayout.setY(currentYpostition + yOffset)
and this will place the view to the bottom of the screen. You can enable the visibility when the animation starts.

OnclickListener for Animated View

found many question on same issue.
How to set OnClickListener on the ImageView after rotation animation
How to write the onclick listener for a view after animation?
i also have same issue, any suggestion ?

You ought to write a fresh, concise question about your specific issue rather than just pointing to other questions. The two questions linked to aren't entirely clear.
I assume your issue is that after applying an animation (such as a TranslateAnimation, for example) to a View, the View no longer responds to touch events in its new position. The reason for this is because the View hasn't been moved to the new position in terms of layout parameters, but rather it has had a transformation applied.
The solution is quite simple: immediately after the animation has completed, actually move the View to the new position. You could set myAnimation.setFillAfter() = false, and set a listener to physically move the View to the target location when the animation has finished:
myAmazingAnimation.setFillAfter() = false;
myAmazingAnimation.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener(){
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
// Now actually move the View using LayoutParams
}
#Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
}
#Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
}
});
Another variation is to physically move the View at the beginning before animation is applied, and then apply an animation that makes the View start where it used to be and end at 0,0.

animation not starting!! (android)

can anyone tell me why this animation isn't starting? i've tried putting code in the onAnimationStart listener and it is never called! there are no errors, it just never happens.. i've been staring at this for hours!!!
Animation bRegisterAnimation = fadeView(1,0,0);
bRegisterAnimation.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener() {
public void onAnimationStart(Animation arg0) {}
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation arg0) {}
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation arg0) {
bRegister.clearAnimation();
bRegister.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
}
});
bRegister.setAnimation(bRegisterAnimation);
and here is the fadeView function:
public Animation fadeView(float startA, float endA, int delay) {
Animation animation = new AlphaAnimation(startA,endA);
animation.setDuration(1000);
animation.setStartOffset(delay);
return animation;
}
thanks!

You need to call bRegister.startAnimation(bRegisterAnimation). Also, you don't need to call setAnimation(). If you're trying to make a simple fade animation, you might try using this instead:
bRegister.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(
getBaseContext(), android.R.anim.fade_in));

I guess bRegister is your view over which you want your animation to work. IF this is so, you have correctly set the animation with this view using bRegister.setAnimation(bRegisterAnimation);
but you haven't started the animation using startAnimation(). Try it once

I had a similar experience when trying to implement animations on my Android device, which was one that I borrowed from my sister. I tried getting animation to work on it for a whole day until I finally gave up. Days later was when I realized...... all animations had been turned off in the settings -_- lol so to avoid wasting your time like me it might be wise to check your settings first.

android animation is not finished in onAnimationEnd

It seems that an android animation is not truly finished when the onAnimationEnd event is fired although animation.hasEnded is set to true.
I want my view to change it's background drawable on the end of it's ScaleAnimation which it does, but you can clearly see that it is changed some miliseconds before it finishes. The problem is, that it flickers because the new background appears (=is) scaled for a short time until the animation really finishes.
Is there a way to get either the real end of the animation or just prevent the new background from beeing scaled this short period of time?
Thank you!
//EDIT: I'm using an AnimationListener to get the following call:
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation)
{
View view = (MyView) ((ExtendedScaleAnimation) animation).getView();
view.clearAnimation();
view.requestLayout();
view.refreshBackground(); // <-- this is where the background gets changed
}

Here is the actual bug related to this issue http://code.google.com/p/android-misc-widgets/issues/detail?id=8
This basically states that the onAnimationEnd method doesn't really work well when an AnimationListener is attached to an Animation
The workaround is to listen for the animation events in the view to which you were applying the animation to
For example if initially you were attaching the animation listener to the animation like this
mAnimation.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener() {
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation arg0) {
//Functionality here
}
});
and then applying to the animation to a ImageView like this
mImageView.startAnimation(mAnimation);
To work around this issue, you must now create a custom ImageView
public class MyImageView extends ImageView {
and then override the onAnimationEnd method of the View class and provide all the functionality there
#Override
protected void onAnimationEnd() {
super.onAnimationEnd();
//Functionality here
}
This is the proper workaround for this issue, provide the functionality in the over-riden View -> onAnimationEnd method as opposed to the onAnimationEnd method of the AnimationListener attached to the Animation.
This works properly and there is no longer any flicker towards the end of the animation.

I was abe to resolve this by calling clearAnimation() on the view being animated inside onAnimationEnd, that took away the flicker
Its weird why would anyone have to do that, as onAnimationEnd callback should have been called only if the animation has already ended. But I guess the answer lies in the depth of Framework on how view/layout handles animation callback.
For now take it as a hack-free solution, that just works.
animation.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener() {
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation anim) {
innerView.clearAnimation(); // to get rid of flicker at end of animation
RelativeLayout.LayoutParams lp = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams
(innerBlockContainer.getWidth(), innerBlockContainer.getHeight());
/* Update lp margin, left/top to update layout after end of Translation */
ViewGroup parent_ofInnerView = (ViewGroup)innerView.getParent();
vp.updateViewLayout(innerBlockContainer, lp);
}
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation arg0) {}
public void onAnimationStart(Animation arg0) {
}
});
innerView.startAnimation(animation);

I had same issue and solved it using
view.clearAnimation();
before
view.startAnimation(anim);

I had a similar problem and I used Soham's solution with custom view class.
It worked fine, but at the end, I've found a simpler solution that worked for me.
After calling the view.StartAnimation(animation), and before the next step in my program, I've added a short delay that will be long enough to let the animation finish, but short enough to be unnoticeable by the user:
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
nextStepInMyProgram();
}
}, 200);// delay in milliseconds (200)

For some reason the onAnimationStart works properly, and the onAnimationEnd doesnt. So heres how I originally did it and what I changed:
Attempt 1 (flicker):
a) Move image from 0px to 80px
b) In onAnimationEnd, set the image's location to 80px
Attempt 2 (no flicker):
a) In onAnimationStart, set the image's location to 80px
b) Move the image from -80px to 0px
Hope that made sense. Basically I flipped the way I did it

Try to use getAnimation() from your object:
public void onShowListBtnClick(View view)
{
rightPanel.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(MainActivity.this, R.anim.slide_left));
rightPanel.getAnimation().setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
#Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
// write your code here
}
});
}

An easy fix is to add one line to AnimationListener.onAnimationEnd():
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation a) {
a.setAnimationListener(null);
…
}

annimation can be also stopped on screen rotation. in this case onAnimationEnd() is not being called. my workaround:
animation.setDuration(animationDuration);
animation.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListenerAdapter() {...});
view.startAnimation(animation);
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
if(!animation.hasEnded()) {
// here you can handle this case
}
}
}, animationDuration + 100);

I had this issue because my Animation was not started in the main thread.
This resulted in a duration of 0.
However , the Animation did play correctly - it just called onAnimationEnd() immediately after execution.

If you are using repeat count as infinite, then onAnimationEnd would not get called. Check the documentation link

You can also use setUpdateListener, then check the current fraction of the animation progress and act accordingly.
Here's a Kotlin example for a fade-out animation which eventually makes the view gone from the layout:
view.animate()
.alpha(0f)
.setDuration(duration)
.setUpdateListener { animation ->
if (animation.animatedFraction > 0.99f) {
view.visibility = View.GONE
}
}
.start()

This worked for me:
#Override
public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator animation) {
if (Float.compare(animation.getAnimatedFraction(),1.0f)) {
// animation ended;
//do stuff post animation
}
}
