Question

I want to make the same animation in xml as in code.
I code I have this

    Animation a = new TranslateAnimation(Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT , 1.1f, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, -0.2f,
            Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT, 0.0f);

I start with this in my xml anim file but I do not know how to tall him that the translation should be relative to parent

<translate
    android:duration="2500"
    android:fromXDelta="-0.1"
    android:fromYDelta="0"
    android:toXDelta="200"
    android:toYDelta="0" />

Namely I do not know how to specify the fromXType attribute

fromXType Specifies how fromXValue should be interpreted. One of Animation.ABSOLUTE, Animation.RELATIVE_TO_SELF, or Animation.RELATIVE_TO_PARENT.

Answer 1

you need to use the P parameter like this

android:fromXDelta="-0.1%p"
