A series of frames is drawn one after the other at regular intervals.
For this create a xml which contains ImageView for showing the animation
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayout xmlns:android= "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#FFFFFF" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <ImageView android:id="@+id/Image" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/d1" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/> <Button android:id="@+id/startFAButtonId" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Start Animation" /></LinearLayout> |
The main java file is
package com.coderzheaven.animation;import android.app.Activity;import android.graphics.drawable.AnimationDrawable;import android.os.Bundle;import android.view.View;import android.widget.Button;import android.widget.ImageView;public class Frame extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Button b = (Button)this.findViewById(R.id.startFAButtonId); b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { animate(); } }); } private void animate() { ImageView imgView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.Image); imgView.setVisibility(ImageView.VISIBLE); imgView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.animation_frame); AnimationDrawable frameAnimation = (AnimationDrawable) imgView.getBackground(); if (frameAnimation.isRunning()) { frameAnimation.stop(); } else { frameAnimation.stop(); frameAnimation.start(); } } } |
Next the main part, an xml which holds each image and duration in which each image shows.
The xml should be placed inside drawable folder
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><animation-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"android:oneshot="false"> <item android:drawable="@drawable/d1" android:duration="50" /> <item android:drawable="@drawable/d2" android:duration="50" /> <item android:drawable="@drawable/d3" android:duration="50" /> <item android:drawable="@drawable/d4" android:duration="50" /> <item android:drawable="@drawable/d5" android:duration="50" /></animation-list> |
When i click the button the animation will start
