Animating Views

• we use a ViewPropertyAnimator to animate a view object.
• Call View.animate() and get a ViewPropertyAnimator object
• On it, you can call functions to animate properties like alpha ,translation, rotation...
• Quick code :

	public void onClick(View v) {
        if (viewToAnimate.getAlpha() > 0f) {
            //If the view is visible, slide it out to the right
            viewToAnimate.animate().alpha(0f).translationX(1000f);
        } else {
            //If the view is hidden, do a fade-in in place
            //Property Animations actually modify the view, so
            // we have to reset the view's location first
            viewToAnimate.setTranslationX(0f);
            viewToAnimate.animate().alpha(1f);
        }
    }
