If you don't want to expand or collapse all the way - here is a simple HeightAnimation -
import android.view.View;
import android.view.animation.Animation;
import android.view.animation.Transformation;
public class HeightAnimation extends Animation {
protected final int originalHeight;
protected final View view;
protected float perValue;
public HeightAnimation(View view, int fromHeight, int toHeight) {
this.view = view;
this.originalHeight = fromHeight;
this.perValue = (toHeight - fromHeight);
}
@Override
protected void applyTransformation(float interpolatedTime, Transformation t) {
view.getLayoutParams().height = (int) (originalHeight + perValue * interpolatedTime);
view.requestLayout();
}
@Override
public boolean willChangeBounds() {
return true;
}
}
Usage:
HeightAnimation heightAnim = new HeightAnimation(view, view.getHeight(), viewPager.getHeight() - otherView.getHeight());
heightAnim.setDuration(1000);
view.startAnimation(heightAnim);
