Android animations are in fact resource files, much like an icon or a layout. The animations that apply to layouts and widgets are XML files that define the various transformations and are placed in the res/anim directory. Android provides a small selection of simple animations that you can use in your application, without needing to build your own:
- android.R.anim.fade_in - @android:anim/fade_in
- android.R.anim.fade_out - @android:anim/fade_out
- android.R.anim.slide_in_left - @android:anim/slide_in_left
- android.R.anim.slide_out_right - @android:anim/slide_out_right
These four animations cover two different types of transition: fading out and in, or sliding the widgets from left to right. Nothing stops you from mixing ...
