Question

I\'m trying to add an animation to my TabActivty. For example, when the user select the 2nd tab, I want the new activity comes from the right. When the user select the first

Answer 1

This works correctly:

getTabHost().setOnTabChangedListener(new OnTabChangeListener() {
     public void onTabChanged(String tabId)
     {
            View currentView = getTabHost().getCurrentView();
            if (getTabHost().getCurrentTab() > currentTab)
            {
                currentView.setAnimation( inFromRightAnimation() );
            }
            else
            {
                currentView.setAnimation( outToRightAnimation() );
            }

            currentTab = getTabHost().getCurrentTab();
     }
});

And the animations:

public Animation inFromRightAnimation()
{
    Animation inFromRight = new TranslateAnimation(
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, +1.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
    inFromRight.setDuration(240);
    inFromRight.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
    return inFromRight;
}

public Animation outToRightAnimation()
{
    Animation outtoLeft = new TranslateAnimation(
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, -1.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
    outtoLeft.setDuration(240);
    outtoLeft.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
    return outtoLeft;
}
