Define xml animation into Java

Question

Is it possible to write slide_out_left animation using java?

Here is my animation xml.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <translate android:duration="300" android:fromXDelta="0%" android:toXDelta="-100%" /> </set>

Answer 1

yes it is possible:

view.animate().translationX(_amount_).setDuration(_time in ms_).start();

So, you will have to calculate translation distance by yourself. Note: if you translate to 0 later, after some other translations - it will move to starting position.

To complete slide in effect try to use withStartAction also.
