hello, Teo!

how can I help you today?

Hi!

I have 4 Views I want to move from 0% to 100% width of my screen. ( I use translateX property ). The problem is when the 1st view ends the animation I want it to start again - same goes for the second view etc...

I'm confused how to deal with the problem. Should I use a custom TimeInterpolator ?

probably not, but give me a moment...

Initially all views have visibility set to Gone and each starts with a delay

ok thanks

wouldn't you just use a repeat

er, repeat count

setRepeatCount() and setRepeatMode() on your ValueAnimator?

that means I have to wait till the last animation finishes. I need to start again the 1st before that moment.

you have four animations, right?

yes

then you use setRepeatCount()/setRepeatMode() on each animation indepedently

or am I missing something?

it's been a while since I played with low-level object animation stuff, so I'm rather rusty on this subject...

hmmm...I haven't thought the indepedently thing for each animation. I thought it was only for animation sets.

those methods are on ValueAnimator

ok I'll try with the repeat. If you are still around and I have a problem I'll let you know :)

thank you again

you are very welcome
