Question

I have created a bitmap image which is a circle and than as I wanted to animate it so i converted it into bitmapdrawable and than added it to animation drawable..But due to this the circle shaped has changed to oval shape…

So what should I do ?

Is there any other method to animate only the bitmap file. ?

Thanks in advance..

Answer 1

no, you can not animate the bitmap itself with the android animation framwork. You can directly animate Views or ViewGroups and all the classes that derives from View and ViewGroup.

Call view the ImageView that contains the bitmap.

TranslateAnimation slide = new TranslateAnimation(view.getX(), view.getX()  + 100, view.getY(), view.getY()  + 100 );   
slide.setDuration(1000);
view.startAnimation(slide) 

that should translate the ImageView by 100px from the current position
