Rotate drawable
suggested by Praveen won't give you control of frame count. Let's assume you want to implement a custom loader which consists from 8 sections:
Using animation-list
approach, you need to create 8 frames rotated by 45*frameNumber
degrees manually. Alternatively, you can use 1st frame and set rotation animation to it:
File res/anim/progress_anim.xml
:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rotate
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:fromDegrees="0"
android:toDegrees="360"
android:pivotX="50%"
android:pivotY="50%"
android:repeatCount="infinite" />
File MainActivity.java
Animation a = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getContext(), R.anim.progress_anim);
a.setDuration(1000);
imageView.startAnimation(a);
This will give you smooth animation instead of 8-stepped. To fix this we need to implement custom interpolator:
a.setInterpolator(new Interpolator() {
private final int frameCount = 8;
@Override
public float getInterpolation(float input) {
return (float)Math.floor(input*frameCount)/frameCount;
}
});
Also you can create a custom widget:
File res/values/attrs.xml
:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<declare-styleable name="ProgressView">
<attr name="frameCount" format="integer"/>
<attr name="duration" format="integer" />
</declare-styleable>
</resources>
File ProgressView.java
:
public class ProgressView extends ImageView {
public ProgressView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
setAnimation(attrs);
}
public ProgressView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
setAnimation(attrs);
}
public ProgressView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
private void setAnimation(AttributeSet attrs) {
TypedArray a = getContext().obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, R.styleable.ProgressView);
int frameCount = a.getInt(R.styleable.ProgressView_frameCount, 12);
int duration = a.getInt(R.styleable.ProgressView_duration, 1000);
a.recycle();
setAnimation(frameCount, duration);
}
public void setAnimation(final int frameCount, final int duration) {
Animation a = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getContext(), R.anim.progress_anim);
a.setDuration(duration);
a.setInterpolator(new Interpolator() {
@Override
public float getInterpolation(float input) {
return (float)Math.floor(input*frameCount)/frameCount;
}
});
startAnimation(a);
}
}
File activity_main.xml
:
<com.example.widget.ProgressView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="@drawable/ic_progress"
app:frameCount="8"
app:duration="1000"/>
