How to animate FloatingActionButton of new Design Support Library

Question

I am using a TabLayout with 5 different fragments. On 3 of these fragments a android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton should appear. Right now I simpl

You want something like this? But instead of animating it on onScrollListener you can animate it on onCreateView or onCreate method. Follow this --> Implement Floating Action Button – Part 2

Basically the code sums up only to this

Animate to Hide

FloatingActionButton floatingActionButton = (FloatingActionButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fab);
                floatingActionButton.animate().translationY(floatingActionButton.getHeight() + 16).setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator(2)).start();

and

Animate back to Show

FloatingActionButton floatingActionButton = (FloatingActionButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fab);
                floatingActionButton.animate().translationY(0).setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator(2)).start();

but we dont want it to animate just to hide it so, 'Animate to Hide' will just be something like this

FloatingActionButton floatingActionButton = (FloatingActionButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fab);
                floatingActionButton.setTranslationY(floatingActionButton.getHeight() + 16);

On 'Animate to Hide' put that on the onCreateView or onCreate method so that on your FAB is hidden when you create this fragment and you could then add a handler and runnable that will trigger 'Animate back to Show' after a second or two to show your animation

or you could use a time for short animations

int mShortAnimationDuration = getResources().getInteger(
            android.R.integer.config_shortAnimTime);

I tried this one on onScroll but haven't tried on onCreateView or onCreate but I guess it should work

--EDIT--

Try this code ;)

public class DummyFragment extends Fragment {

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        int mShortAnimationDuration = getResources().getInteger(
                android.R.integer.config_shortAnimTime);

        FloatingActionButton floatingActionButton = (FloatingActionButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fab);
        floatingActionButton.setTranslationY(floatingActionButton.getHeight() + 16);

        new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                FloatingActionButton floatingActionButton = (FloatingActionButton) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.fab);
                floatingActionButton.animate().translationY(0).setInterpolator(new DecelerateInterpolator(2)).start();

            }, mShortAnimationDuration);
        }
    }
}
