I have a paragraph of text and when a button is clicked I want that text to fade out, change to some other text, then fade back in. I have some code but it doesn\'t do the fade
If you want to use Animation, you can use an AnimatorListener to listen for when the first animation is done, and then start the second animation. That would be onAnimationEnd().
More information available here: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/animation/Animator.AnimatorListener.html
There might be a better way to do it with AnimationSet, but this works for sure.
