Anyway to programmatically animate layout weight property of linear layout

Question

I have two views in a linear layout, I programmatically change their layout_weight property. Is there a way I could animate this change in weight so when the weight is changed v

Answer 1

Note: I am not sure that this is the best way, but I tried it and it's working fine

Simply using ValueAnimator

ValueAnimator m1 = ValueAnimator.ofFloat(0.2f, 0.5f); //fromWeight, toWeight
m1.setDuration(400);
m1.setStartDelay(100); //Optional Delay
m1.setInterpolator(new LinearInterpolator());
m1.addUpdateListener(new ValueAnimator.AnimatorUpdateListener() {
         @Override
         public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator animation) {
             ((LinearLayout.LayoutParams) viewToAnimate.getLayoutParams()).weight = (float) animation.getAnimatedValue();
             viewToAnimate.requestLayout();
         }

});
m1.start();
