Switch between views with crossfade animation

Question

I\'ve wrote a small activity that is able to switch between two views. Now I am trying to add some animation (fade-in/fade-out effect). Can anybody explain me how to do that rig

Answer 1

I think there are 2 main solution to this problem

• The first one is using a ViewFlipper as suggested.
• The other one is to go with the solution described here.

I prefer the second one cause it doesn't need additional View object in your view hiearchy and second you can have your 2 view all across the view tree. Not only in a single place defined by the position of the ViewFlipper.
