Android: Animation Position Resets After Complete

Question

I\'m using an xml defined animation to slide a view off the screen. The problem is, as soon as the animation completes it resets to its original position. I need to know how

Answer 1

You can use

fillAfter=true
fillEnabled=true

your View will'not reset to original position, but if you have some buttons or something else in your view , their position will not change.

You must use ObjectAnimator , it works from API 11 level . It changes View position automatic,

here is the example

ObjectAnimator objectAnimator= ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(mContent_container, "translationX", startX, endX);
objectAnimator.setDuration(1000);
objectAnimator.start();

Thanks JUL for his answer

If your app not found object animator, change the API level from Project -> properties -> Android , than import android.animation.ObjectAnimator;
