Start animation in RemoteViews

Question

I made a notification with a custom view, I need to run animation on one of the children but as you know RemoteViews doesn't allow to have direct access to the desired view (to invoke start method on its background), Does any one know how to access to the view or invoke mentioned method on its drawable ?
Thanks

Well, fortunately, I found a workaround:

1. replace the view you want to animate with a ProgressBar
2. set indeterminateDrawable the animation drawable you want, No need to invoke the start method!
