You can start the correct Animation
when the visibility of the LinearLayout
changes by creating a new subclass of LinearLayout
and overriding setVisibility()
to start the Animations
. Consider something like this:
public class SimpleViewAnimator extends LinearLayout
{
private Animation inAnimation;
private Animation outAnimation;
public SimpleViewAnimator(Context context)
{
super(context);
}
public void setInAnimation(Animation inAnimation)
{
this.inAnimation = inAnimation;
}
public void setOutAnimation(Animation outAnimation)
{
this.outAnimation = outAnimation;
}
@Override
public void setVisibility(int visibility)
{
if (getVisibility() != visibility)
{
if (visibility == VISIBLE)
{
if (inAnimation != null) startAnimation(inAnimation);
}
else if ((visibility == INVISIBLE) || (visibility == GONE))
{
if (outAnimation != null) startAnimation(outAnimation);
}
}
super.setVisibility(visibility);
}
}
