View animation right to left android

Question

I am not able to put view animation for inflated layouts. I used the following code snippet

pageView.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,R.anim.right_to_left_anim.xml));

and xml

<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
         android:shareInterpolator="false">
     <translate android:fromXDelta="0%" android:toXDelta="100%"
          android:fromYDelta="0%" android:toYDelta="0%"
         android:duration="700"/>

</set>

Is any thing i missing?

Thanks.

Here is the code for the sliding animation for view.

1)inFromRightAnimation

    private Animation inFromRightAnimation() {

        Animation inFromRight = new TranslateAnimation(
                Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, +1.0f,
                Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
                Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
                Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
        inFromRight.setDuration(500);
        inFromRight.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
        return inFromRight;
        }

 2)outToLeftAnimation   
    private Animation outToLeftAnimation() {
    Animation outtoLeft = new TranslateAnimation(
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, -1.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
    outtoLeft.setDuration(500);
    outtoLeft.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
    return outtoLeft;
    }

3)inFromLeftAnimation

    private Animation inFromLeftAnimation() {
    Animation inFromLeft = new TranslateAnimation(
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, -1.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
    inFromLeft.setDuration(500);
    inFromLeft.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
    return inFromLeft;
    }

4)outToRightAnimation

    private Animation outToRightAnimation() {
    Animation outtoRight = new TranslateAnimation(
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, +1.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f,
        Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);
    outtoRight.setDuration(500);
    outtoRight.setInterpolator(new AccelerateInterpolator());
    return outtoRight;
    }

and now start Animation on view

pageView.startAnimation(inFromRightAnimation());

Thanks,

If you're trying to animate the view when it's first created, then you either need to set the layoutAnimation XML property or call setLayoutAnimation() .

If you just want to make your view look like it's moving, you need a TranslateAnimation ; see this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/4214490/832776 Also if you'd like to repeat the animation, then call setAnimationListener() and in onAnimationEnd() just start the animation again.

If you're trying to move the view permanently, see this: http://www.clingmarks.com/how-to-permanently-move-view-with-animation-effect-in-android/400

I know that you have already accepted the answer. But I think this reply will be helpful for somebody reading this. You can try removing .xml from, pageView.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this,R.anim.right_to_left_anim.xml));
