How to scale animated text in the form of an android to the right

Question

I'm trying to get text on the left side of the screen, and when it gets to its position, I want the text to scale to the right side of the TextView. This is an animation file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <!-- This is where the view moves onto the screen --> <translate android:fromXDelta="-200%" android:toXDelta="0%" android:fromYDelta="0%" android:toYDelta="0%" android:duration="1000" android:zAdjustment="top" ></translate> <!-- this is where I am scaling the text it currently aligns on the left side of the textview --> <scale android:fromXScale="1.0" android:fromYScale="1.0" android:toXScale=".2" android:startOffset="500" android:toYScale="1.0" android:duration="1000"></scale> <!-- I am then trying to make the text bounce over the left side of the textview --> <scale android:fromXScale="1.0" android:fromYScale="1.0" android:toXScale="7.0" android:startOffset="1500" android:toYScale="1.0" android:duration="200"></scale> <!-- I am then resetting the text to its original size --> <scale android:fromXScale="1.4" android:fromYScale="1.0" android:toXScale="1.0" android:toYScale="1.0" android:startOffset="1700" android:duration="50"></scale> </set> 

I also do this when the text comes in from the right side and it works fine. Here textViews are in layout

  <TextView android:textColor="@android:color/black" android:textSize="50dip" android:layout_marginTop="40dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:gravity="right" android:id="@+id/btnN" android:text="@string/play" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="50dip"></TextView> <TextView android:textColor="@android:color/black" android:layout_marginBottom="40dip" android:textSize="50dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:gravity="right" android:id="@+id/btnO" android:text="@string/option" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_marginLeft="50dip"></TextView> <TextView android:id="@+id/btnI" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:text="@string/info" android:textColor="@android:color/black" android:layout_marginRight="50dip" android:layout_marginTop="40dip" android:textSize="50dip" android:layout_alignParentRight="true"></TextView> <TextView android:id="@+id/btnE" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textColor="@android:color/black" android:text="@string/exit" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true" android:layout_marginBottom="40dip" android:layout_marginRight="50dip" android:textSize="50dip"></TextView> </RelativeLayout> btnN and btnO are the ones I need to do this animation for 

Answer 1

Save the file in a new res / anim folder.

 Animation animation = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.urAnimation); urTextView.setAnimation(animation); or urTextView.startAnimation(animation); 

As you need.

Answer 2

set android:pivotX="100%" to scale in your animation XML file.

And in the java file:

 Animation anim = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(context, R.anim.yourAnimation); yourTextView.startAnimation(anim);
