Animation List Simply Deosn't Start

I'm working on a project which should have a progressdialog. But since i didn't find an easy way to style a progressdialog, i was thinking, that the easiest way is to create a cust

Solution 1:

Change android:oneshot="true" to android:oneshot="false" so that it repeats. It should be currently only doing one cycle and since your show time is 50, that is really fast. I would also change that to maybe 200 or so..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><animation-listxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"android:oneshot="false" ><itemandroid:drawable="@drawable/loadbar_01"android:duration="200" /><itemandroid:drawable="@drawable/loadbar_02"android:duration="200" /><itemandroid:drawable="@drawable/loadbar_03"android:duration="200"/></animation-list>

Also, you are setting the image in your xml layout, but animated the background, so you need to either change the xml layout to this:

<ImageView         android:id="@+id/loaddialog_animation"         android:layout_width="wrap_content"android:layout_height="wrap_content"android:background="@drawable/loadanimation"android:layout_marginRight="10dp" /> 

or change you code to get the src file rather than the background, like this:

image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.loaddialog_animation);
image.set(R.drawable.loadanimation);
animation = (AnimationDrawable) image.getDrawable();

Faced the same issue today. Placing the animation.start() in the onShow() method of OnShowListener did the trick for me.

publicclassCustomProgressDialogextendsDialog 
{
ImageView progressImage;
AnimationDrawable frameAnimation;

publicCustomProgressDialog(Context context)
{
    super(context);
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
    setContentView(R.layout.custom_progress);
    getWindow().setBackgroundDrawable(newColorDrawable(Color.TRANSPARENT));

    progressImage = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.custom_progress_image);
    progressImage.setBackgroundResource(R.anim.progress_anim);

    frameAnimation = (AnimationDrawable) progressImage.getBackground();

    OnShowListenerosl=newOnShowListener() 
    {
        @OverridepublicvoidonShow(DialogInterface dialog)
        {
            frameAnimation.start();
        }
    }; 
    setOnShowListener(osl);

    OnDismissListenerodl=newOnDismissListener() 
    {

        @OverridepublicvoidonDismiss(DialogInterface dialog) 
        {
            frameAnimation.stop();
        }
    };
    setOnDismissListener(odl);
}

}
