Simulate iOS 4 folder animation in Android - android

I'm trying to simulate the iOS4 folder appearance in Android. I have a Button in my layout, and when pressed I would like to expand a View with some other buttons or images and the rest of the screen pushed down.
Here's an example video showing how the iOS 4 folders works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6ZwC8TGwXo (0:44)
Is there any library or sample code on anything similar to this? Or maybe some indications on how to achieve this?
Greetings

I found something that looks really similar to the iOS folders animation. It's a custom Animation, here are the details: http://udinic.wordpress.com/2011/09/03/expanding-listview-items/

Android applications stack like view

Hello everyone,
I am looking to build an application stack like view. If you press square button on phone ( Oppo, Samsung and pixel ) you see a view like images below. I m trying to do the same thing. Can anyone tell me a bit what this view is? Is this is sdk or I have to create a custom view like this one? Please see the images. Is this a view_pager? I m talking about the central part which swipes right and left.
There are libraries which make it easier to make all kinds of different looks for recyclerviews. I suggest you search for circular recyclerview in google.
Here is my first search which looks suitable to your needs:

Also I have searched here before posting but didnt get it so dont down rate please.
Thanks
In the image below, click where the arrow is pointing to and select "Preview All Screen Sizes"
I guess that's a little hard to see but its the little page icon right next to "Pallete" on the top-left. Its the layout configuration drop-down.
you can add more previews and show all of the previews, as shown on the google IO video:

How to support popup menu in Android 2.1 version?

i am working on demo application.
have you any idea about popup menu in Android 2.1 version. actually working fine in android api level 11 and above..
reference url : http://www.sitepoint.com/build-intuitive-extensible-menus-in-android-with-java-and-xml-2/
yes, you can do this. you just need a little bit of Animation and its done. :) It will give the exact feeling like a pop-up menu. I have done this before.
you need to use Relative layout for this purpose, because they can overlap on each other.
On click event of button, you need to show the View (relative layout holding a custom menu in this case) with an animation say bounce animation. again click on same button will hide the view again with an animation.
I wish I could post the code here but I have to search where I put my project. :P ;)
I hope it will give a little idea about a totally customized pop-up menu.

How to make a menu button similar to the one in the Path app?

Path is a social networking application that allows you to create a small social group to be intimate with rather than a large one like Facebook.
Something that really impresses me about this app is the UI. They have a signature menu button, which is a circle that spins releasing smaller circles as menu options.
I love the way it look and want to know how to do menu/UI animations in general. Could anyone direct me to sucha tutorial/article?
Thanks.
Here is the Path app: Path
Here is some app that just has the menu animation (no source, unfortunately): Path UI anim demo
http://code.google.com/p/android-path-like-button/ Hope this helps, it is underdevelopment, as you cannot see bounce effects yet, but i have forked it and I'm working on further more furnishings.
Looks like they are just using a some custom made drawables for their button backgrounds and tweened position and rotation animations. Please see this resource for information on Android UI animations:

Making game like menu in Android

I'm trying to cope with some problem in finding good idea. I would like to make interesting menu like in games on Android (eg. ANngry Birds or here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3g6SdTODY4) In this panda game I supose that first menu are simply 3 color buttons, but what about this sliding menu later with stages description - this same as in angry birds? Telling the truth I have got no idea what object it can be?
I will be glad if someone can tell me that. Or the best to give some tutorials about it. I cant google any.
Well, it seems that this sliding stage description is implemented with some simple layout placed to HorizontalScrollView and some animation applied to the buttons.
It can be your custom view provided with your translation animations and handling its visibility on the click of the default menu button (via onKeyDown()) on Android.
