Android property animation: how to increase view height?

Question

How to increase the view height using Property Animations in Android?

ObjectAnimator a = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(viewToIncreaseHeight, \"translationY\", -100)         


        

Answer 1

Here is my code to animate scrolling an item to center of the screen inside a recycleView

// Scrolling with animation
val valueAnimator = ValueAnimator.ofInt(getWidth() / 2)
valueAnimator.duration = 250L
valueAnimator.addUpdateListener {
    val animatedValue = valueAnimator.animatedValue as Int
    (layoutManager as LinearLayoutManager).scrollToPositionWithOffset(itemToScroll, animatedValue)
}
valueAnimator.start()
// End of scrolling with animation

Note it is a bit similar to UIView.animate in Swift, but with more complication
