Prevent view to be in front during animation

Question

I have a button that shows or hides a view. When button get pressed the view is added to layout and a translate animation begins. Second button press will remove the view from the layout. I user addView(view, 0) to make sure the view is behind all other views. It works generally fine.

The problem occurs when the view is shown and I press the button twice very fast (sort of double click). In that case the view jumps to front during the animation.

How can I prevent this?

Answer 1

Just disable( setEnabled(false) ) the button and enable it in AnimationListener.onAniationEnd() .

UPD : ok, that's the code, which illustrates my idea:

    final Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.myButton);
    View view = (View) findViewById(R.id.myView);

    btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            btn.setEnabled(false);
            // animation here
            addView(view, 0);
        }
    });

    // somewhere else
    final Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.myButton);
    btn.setEnabled(true);
    removeView(view);
