Reversing an Animation

Question

I have an ImageView that gets animated when it is added to a layout. When it is removed, I want to reverse the same animation.

Is there a way to reverse an animation

Answer 1

this worked for me

 ObjectAnimator anim = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(imageViewUpb, "rotation", rotationAngle, rotationAngle + 180);

            if (linearLayoutb.getVisibility()==GONE){

                linearLayoutb.setVisibility(VISIBLE);
                anim.setDuration(500);
                anim.start();
                rotationAngle += 180;
                rotationAngle = rotationAngle%360;
        imageViewUpb.animate().rotation(rotationAngle).setDuration(500).start();

            }else{

                linearLayoutb.setVisibility(GONE);
                anim.setDuration(500);
                anim.start();
                rotationAngle += 180;
                rotationAngle = rotationAngle%180;
imageViewUpDownb.animate().rotation(rotationAngle).setDuration(500).start();

            }

linearlayoutb is the view that expands when the imageviewUpb faces up

make int rotationAngle = 0; global parameter
