Make View Clickable after Animation in Android

After animation I'm not able to click on view. I search alot about this and read answers on stackoverflow and found something that animation only draw raw pixels. To make view clickable you must need to move view. So I write some code but this is not working fine.
Here is my code.
anim.xml
<set
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="#android:anim/linear_interpolator"
android:fillAfter="true">
<translate
android:fromXDelta="0%p"
android:toXDelta="-50%p"
android:duration="500" />
MainActivity
Animation anim= AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.anim);
anim.setAnimationListener(animLintener);
imageView.startAnimation(anim);
private Animation.AnimationListener animLintener= new Animation.AnimationListener() {
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
int widthHeight = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 30, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
int marginBottom = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 36, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
int marginLeft = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 36, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
deactivateParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(widthHeight, widthHeight);
deactivateParams.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_BOTTOM);
deactivateParams.bottomMargin = marginBottom;
deactivateParams.leftMargin = marginLeft;
imageView.setLayoutParams(deactivateParams);
}
}
Problem with this code is that after running onAnimationEnd animation changed from it's position. Why this is happening. I think once animation complete it will move any further, Right ?
Please let me know what I'm missing.

Smooth animateLayoutChanges animation

I am trying to slid a view from the bottom of the screen and collapse another view a little everything will fit correctly.
I have managed to do that with the attribute animateLayoutChanges and 2 simple xml animations slid_up.xml and slid_down.xml.
My problem is that the animation that happens to ViewPager from the attribute animateLayoutChanges isn't smooth.
Is there a way to fix that?
slid_up.xml
<translate
android:duration="1000"
android:fromYDelta="100%"
android:toYDelta="0" />
</set>
slid_down.xml
<translate
android:duration="1000"
android:fromYDelta="0"
android:toYDelta="100%" />
</set>
P.S. I have tried to create custom animators as Height animators but it messes with the original height of the view.
HeightResizeAnimation
public class HeightResizeAnimation extends Animation {
private View mView;
private float mToHeight;
private float mFromHeight;
private int duration = 300;
public HeightResizeAnimation(View v, float offset) {
mView = v;
mToHeight = v.getHeight() + offset;
mFromHeight = v.getHeight();
setDuration(duration);
}
#Override
protected void applyTransformation(float interpolatedTime, Transformation t) {
float newHeight = (mToHeight - mFromHeight) * interpolatedTime + mFromHeight;
mView.getLayoutParams().height = (int) newHeight;
mView.requestLayout();
}
}
after the animation the height will no longer be as match_parent that was before the animation.
Update
Here is the animation that happens now
You can see that the fab animation to bottom isn't smooth also for the viewpager that the fab is child

It seems like you just want to show a snackbar + move the FAB along with it as it shows?
To do so you could use a combination of Snackbar and CoordinatorLayout from the Android Support Library: http://www.androidhive.info/2015/09/android-material-design-snackbar-example/

In your xml layout add the following in the View:
android:visibility="gone"
android:alpha="0"
android:id="#+id/text_view_liked"
I am asumming the view to be TextView.
On the click of ImageView liked animate the text_view_liked with the following:
final TextView textViewLiked = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_view_get_liked);
final FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
PropertyValuesHolder pvhYTextViewLiked = PropertyValuesHolder
.ofFloat(View.Y,
textViewLiked.getBottom(),
(textViewLiked.getBottom() - textViewLiked.getHeight()));
PropertyValuesHolder pvhAlphaTextViewLiked = PropertyValuesHolder
.ofFloat(View.ALPHA, 0f, 1f);
ObjectAnimator objectAnimator = ObjectAnimator.ofPropertyValuesHolder(textViewLiked,
pvhYTextViewLiked,
pvhAlphaTextViewLiked);
ObjectAnimator objectAnimatorFab = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(fab, View.Y, fab.getY(),
fab.getY() - textViewLiked.getHeight());
AnimatorSet animatorSet = new AnimatorSet();
animatorSet.play(objectAnimator).with(objectAnimatorFab);
animatorSet.addListener(new AnimatorListenerAdapter() {
#Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animator animation) {
super.onAnimationStart(animation);
textViewLiked.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animator animation) {
super.onAnimationEnd(animation);
new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
PropertyValuesHolder pvhYTextViewLiked = PropertyValuesHolder
.ofFloat(View.Y,
textViewLiked.getTop(),
(textViewLiked.getTop() + textViewLiked.getHeight()));
PropertyValuesHolder pvhAlphaTextViewLiked = PropertyValuesHolder
.ofFloat(View.ALPHA, 1f, 0f);
ObjectAnimator objectAnimator = ObjectAnimator.ofPropertyValuesHolder(textViewLiked,
pvhYTextViewLiked,
pvhAlphaTextViewLiked);
ObjectAnimator objectAnimatorFab = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(fab, View.Y, fab.getY(),
fab.getY() + textViewLiked.getHeight());
AnimatorSet animatorSet = new AnimatorSet();
animatorSet.play(objectAnimator).with(objectAnimatorFab);
animatorSet.addListener(new AnimatorListenerAdapter() {
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animator animation) {
super.onAnimationEnd(animation);
textViewLiked.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
});
animatorSet.start();
}
}, 1000);
}
});
You can adjust the duration accordingly
new Handler is created just to automate the process of progress indicator is finished. You can just call on the finish of progress indicator.

After all the solution was to use the android:clipChildren="false"
As can be seen on the gif, the FAB is getting cropped while it is going down to the original position. So after I have used the android:clipChildren="false" on the parent of the FAB viewPager then the FAB isn't getting cropped anymore.

Animation fade in and out

Using this code I only have a fade in, I'm looking for how to add a fade out as well. I've added another xml called "fadeout" but I can't integrate it in my code.
ImageView imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
Animation fadeInAnimation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.fadein);
imageView.startAnimation(fadeInAnimation);
button1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
imageView.startAnimation(fadeInAnimation);
}
}
fadein.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<alpha android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0"
android:interpolator="#android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
android:duration="Your Duration(in milisecond)"
android:repeatCount="infinite"/>
</set>

Here is my solution. It uses AnimatorSet. AnimationSet library was too buggy to get working. This provides seamless and infinite transitions between fade in and out.
public static void setAlphaAnimation(View v) {
ObjectAnimator fadeOut = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(v, "alpha", 1f, .3f);
fadeOut.setDuration(2000);
ObjectAnimator fadeIn = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(v, "alpha", .3f, 1f);
fadeIn.setDuration(2000);
final AnimatorSet mAnimationSet = new AnimatorSet();
mAnimationSet.play(fadeIn).after(fadeOut);
mAnimationSet.addListener(new AnimatorListenerAdapter() {
#Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animator animation) {
super.onAnimationEnd(animation);
mAnimationSet.start();
}
});
mAnimationSet.start();
}

This is Good Example for Fade In and Fade Out Animation with Alpha Effect
Animate Fade In Fade Out
UPDATED :
check this answer may this help you

I´ve been working in Kotlin (recommend to everyone), so the syntax might be a bit off.
What I do is to simply to call:
v.animate().alpha(0f).duration = 200
I think that, in Java, it would be the following.:
v.animate().alpha(0f).setDuration(200);
Try:
private void hide(View v, int duration) {
v.animate().alpha(0f).setDuration(duration);
}
private void show(View v, int duration) {
v.animate().alpha(1f).setDuration(duration);
}

According to the documentation AnimationSet
Represents a group of Animations that should be played together. The
transformation of each individual animation are composed together into
a single transform. If AnimationSet sets any properties that its
children also set (for example, duration or fillBefore), the values of
AnimationSet override the child values
AnimationSet mAnimationSet = new AnimationSet(false); //false means don't share interpolators
Pass true if all of the animations in this set should use the
interpolator associated with this AnimationSet. Pass false if each
animation should use its own interpolator.
ImageView imageView= (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);
Animation fadeInAnimation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.fade_in);
Animation fadeOutAnimation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.fade_out);
mAnimationSet.addAnimation(fadeInAnimation);
mAnimationSet.addAnimation(fadeOutAnimation);
imageView.startAnimation(mAnimationSet);
I hope this will help you.

we can simply use:
public void animStart(View view) {
if(count==0){
Log.d("count", String.valueOf(count));
i1.animate().alpha(0f).setDuration(2000);
i2.animate().alpha(1f).setDuration(2000);
count =1;
}
else if(count==1){
Log.d("count", String.valueOf(count));
count =0;
i2.animate().alpha(0f).setDuration(2000);
i1.animate().alpha(1f).setDuration(2000);
}
}
where i1 and i2 are defined in the onCreateView() as:
i1 = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.firstImage);
i2 = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.secondImage);
count is a class variable initilaized to 0.
The XML file is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/secondImage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="animStart"
android:src="#drawable/second" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/firstImage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="animStart"
android:src="#drawable/first" />
</RelativeLayout>
#drawable/first and #drawable/second are the images in the drawable folder in res.

You can do this also in kotlin like this:
contentView.apply {
// Set the content view to 0% opacity but visible, so that it is visible
// (but fully transparent) during the animation.
alpha = 0f
visibility = View.VISIBLE
// Animate the content view to 100% opacity, and clear any animation
// listener set on the view.
animate()
.alpha(1f)
.setDuration(resources.getInteger(android.R.integer.config_mediumAnimTime).toLong())
.setListener(null)
}
read more about this in android docs

Please try the below code for repeated fade-out/fade-in animation
AlphaAnimation anim = new AlphaAnimation(1.0f, 0.3f);
anim.setRepeatCount(Animation.INFINITE);
anim.setRepeatMode(Animation.REVERSE);
anim.setDuration(300);
view.setAnimation(anim); // to start animation
view.setAnimation(null); // to stop animation

FOR FADE add this first line with your animation's object.
.animate().alpha(1).setDuration(2000);
FOR EXAMPLE

Today, I got stuck with this problem. This worked for me:
#JvmStatic
fun setFadeInFadeOutAnimation(v: View?) {
val fadeIn = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(v, "alpha", 0.0f, 1f)
fadeIn.duration = 300
val fadeOut = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(v, "alpha", 1f, 0.0f)
fadeOut.duration = 2000
fadeIn.addListener(object : AnimatorListenerAdapter(){
override fun onAnimationEnd(animation: Animator?) {
fadeOut.start()
}
})
fadeIn.start()
}

Android scale animation on view

I want to use ScaleAnimation (programmatically not in xml) to change height to view from 0 to 60% of parent height. Width of view is constant and is 50px. View is empty only background color is set.
Can someone give me code for scaleAnim using ScaleAnimation from code.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/layContainer
>
<View
android:layout_width="50px"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/viewContainer"
android:background:"#00f00"
/>
</LinearLayout>
ScaleAnimation scaleAnim = new ScaleAnimation(...);
view before and after animation
.Thanks

Here is a code snip to do exactly that.
public void scaleView(View v, float startScale, float endScale) {
Animation anim = new ScaleAnimation(
1f, 1f, // Start and end values for the X axis scaling
startScale, endScale, // Start and end values for the Y axis scaling
Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 0f, // Pivot point of X scaling
Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 1f); // Pivot point of Y scaling
anim.setFillAfter(true); // Needed to keep the result of the animation
anim.setDuration(1000);
v.startAnimation(anim);
}
The ScaleAnimation constructor used here takes 8 args, 4 related to handling the X-scale which we don't care about (1f, 1f, ... Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 0f, ...).
The other 4 args are for the Y-scaling we do care about.
startScale, endScale - In your case, you'd use 0f, 0.6f.
Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 1f - This specifies where the shrinking of the view collapses to (referred to as the pivot in the documentation). Here, we set the float value to 1f because we want the animation to start growing the bar from the bottom. If we wanted it to grow downward from the top, we'd use 0f.
Finally, and equally important, is the call to anim.setFillAfter(true). If you want the result of the animation to stick around after the animation completes, you must run this on the animator before executing the animation.
So in your case, you can do something like this:
View v = findViewById(R.id.viewContainer);
scaleView(v, 0f, .6f);

In XML, this what I use for achieving the same result. May be this is more intuitive.
scale_up.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<scale
android:duration="200"
android:fromXScale="1.0"
android:fromYScale="0.0"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="100%"
android:toXScale="1.0"
android:toYScale="1.0" />
</set>
scale_down.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<scale
android:duration="200"
android:fromXScale="1.0"
android:fromYScale="1.0"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="100%"
android:toXScale="1.0"
android:toYScale="0.0" />
</set>
See the animation on the X axis is from 1.0 -> 1.0 which means you don't have any scaling up in that direction and stays at the full width while, on the Y axis you get 0.0 -> 1.0 scaling, as shown in the graphic in the question. Hope this helps someone.
Some might want to know the java code as we see one requested.
Place the animation files in anim folder and then load and set animation files something like.
Animation scaleDown = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(youContext, R.anim.scale_down);
ImagView v = findViewById(R.id.your_image_view);
v.startAnimation(scaleDown);

try this code to create Scale animation without using xml
ScaleAnimation animation = new ScaleAnimation(fromXscale, toXscale, fromYscale, toYscale, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 0.5f, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, 0.5f);

Use this method (No need to xml file)
If you want scale to quarter(half x,half y)
view.animate().scaleX(0.5f).scaleY(0.5f)
If you want scale and move to bottom right
view.animate().scaleX(0.5f).scaleY(0.5f)
.translationY((view.height/4).toFloat()).translationX((view.width/4).toFloat())
If you want move to top use (-view.height/4) and for left (-view.width/4)
If you want do something after animation ends use withEndAction(Runnable runnable) function.
You can use some other property like alpha and rotation
Full code
view.animate()
.scaleX(0.5f).scaleY(0.5f)//scale to quarter(half x,half y)
.translationY((view.height/4).toFloat()).translationX((view.width/4).toFloat())// move to bottom / right
.alpha(0.5f) // make it less visible
.rotation(360f) // one round turns
.setDuration(1000) // all take 1 seconds
.withEndAction(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
//animation ended
}
});

Android Animation one after other

I have two TranslateAnimations on a TextView and I want them to execute one after other. However, by using the code below, only the second one is executed.
How can I solve this?
TranslateAnimation animation = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f,
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, -150.0f);
animation.setDuration(200);
wave.startAnimation(animation);
TranslateAnimation animation1 = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f,
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 150.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f);
animation1.setDuration(200);
wave.startAnimation(animation1);

Link them together with
Animation Set
AnimationSet as = new AnimationSet(true)
TranslateAnimation animation = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f,
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, -150.0f);
animation.setDuration(200);
as.addAnimation(animation);
TranslateAnimation animation1 = new TranslateAnimation(
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f,
Animation.ABSOLUTE, 150.0f, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 0.0f);
animation1.setDuration(200);
animation1.setStartOffset(200);
as.addAnimation(animation1);
wave.startAnimation(as);

EDIT: Andy Boots answer below is the better answer imo.
Just set your first one like this and it'll start the other one, once the animation finishes:
animation.setAnimationListener(new 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) {
wave.startAnimation(animation1);
}
});
edit: The reason only your second animation is executed with your current code, is because it overrides the playing of the first animation (both actually are played, but you only see the latest one to start). If you do like I wrote, they will play sequentially instead of in parallel.

also you can do this by XML itself using android:startOffset attribute , and there is an examble:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<scale
android:duration="300"
android:fromXScale="0%"
android:fromYScale="0%"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%"
android:toXScale="100%"
android:toYScale="100%" />
<alpha
android:duration="300"
android:fromAlpha="0"
android:toAlpha=".5" />
<alpha
android:duration="300"
android:fromAlpha=".5"
android:startOffset="300"
android:toAlpha="1" />
</set>

There is one more approach to reach this goal which can be useful when you need to animate a lot of views one after another. You can use setStartOffset method to set a delay before animation begins. So, if you know, how much time will take for your first animation to end, you can set this as a delay for your second animation. This is an example where I animated six ImageButtons and six TextViews below them one after another:
public void animateButtons() {
// An array of buttons
int[] imageButtonIds = {R.id.searchButton, R.id.favoriteButton, R.id.responseButton, R.id.articleButton, R.id.resumeButton, R.id.subscribeButton};
// Array of textViews
int[] textViewIds = {R.id.searchTextView, R.id.favoriteTextView, R.id.responseTextView, R.id.articleTextView, R.id.resumeTextView, R.id.subscribeTextView};
int i = 1;
for (int viewId : imageButtonIds) {
ImageButton imageButton = (ImageButton) findViewById(viewId);
// Animation from a file fade.xml in folder res/anim
Animation fadeAnimation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.fade);
// Delay for each animation is 100 ms bigger than for previous one
fadeAnimation.setStartOffset(i * 100);
imageButton.startAnimation(fadeAnimation);
// The same animation is for textViews
int textViewId = textViewIds[i-1];
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(textViewId);
textView.startAnimation(fadeAnimation);
i ++;
}
}
In my res/anim folder I have a file, called fade.xml with these contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Fade animation with 500 ms duration -->
<alpha xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="#android:anim/accelerate_decelerate_interpolator"
android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0"
android:duration="500" />

Create an animation array and use method for creating AnimationSet.
Animation[] animations = {
getScaleAnimation(0.4f, 1.3f, 2000),
getScaleAnimation(1.3f, 1.0f, 500),
getScaleAnimation(0.4f, 1.3f, 1000),
getScaleAnimation(1.3f, 1.0f, 3000),
getScaleAnimation(0.4f, 1.3f, 500),
getScaleAnimation(1.3f, 1.0f, 1700),
getScaleAnimation(0.4f, 1.3f, 2100),
getScaleAnimation(1.3f, 1.0f, 3400)
};
AnimationSet animationSet = addAnimationAr(animations);
view.startAnimation(animationSet);
Method:
public static AnimationSet addAnimationAr(Animation[] animations) {
AnimationSet animationSet = new AnimationSet(false);
long totalAnimationDuration = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < animations.length; i++) {
Animation a = animations[i];
a.setStartOffset(totalAnimationDuration);
totalAnimationDuration += a.getDuration();
animationSet.addAnimation(a);
}
return animationSet;
}

If you use code, you can call
Animation.setStartOffset()
to delay the second animation.
if you use xml you can android:ordering="sequentially" property to make the two animations perform sequentially.

For simple animations, you can achieve this by using the animate() and withEndAction() functions, like so:
ImageView img = findViewById(R.id.imageView);
img.animate().rotation(180).alpha(0).setDuration(3000).withEndAction(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
ImageView img = findViewById(R.id.imageView);
img.animate().rotation(0).alpha(1).setDuration(2000);
}
});

AnimationDrawable
Running such animation is pretty straightforward in Android. In fact, there is a class in Android API just for this specific task called AnimationDrwable. AnimationDrawable is a set of images together.
Step1: Create AnimationDrwable
Step2: Load Animation Drawable into ImageView
step3: start the animation
Step 1:
Create an XML and add all images like this.
<animation-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:oneshot="true">
<item android:drawable="#drawable/cat_image_1" android:duration="200" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/cat_image_2" android:duration="200" />
<item android:drawable="#drawable/cat_image_3" android:duration="200" />
</animation-list>
Step 2:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
//Step 2
ImageView myimage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.my_image);
myimage.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.rocket_thrust);
//Step 3
AnimationDrawable catAnimation = (AnimationDrawable) rocketImage.getBackground();
catAnimation.start();
}
