Replying to myself, I think this is definitely a defect, but I've only experimented on one (v2.1) SDK level. If I want the throb to go smoothly from 100% - 120% - 100%, I need to write the animation to go from 0.8 - 1.2 - 0.8 instead. Note that 0.8 is actually the reciprocal, or 1.0/1.2, of my toXScale value at the middle of the throb animation set. If I want it to go from 100% - 130% - 100% instead, then the same kind of reciprocal math is required to figure out the fromXScale values that should be 1.0. I include the relevant fillBefore=false fillAfter=false but they actually make no difference here in practice. ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? set xmlns:android=http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android; android:shareInterpolator=false scale android:interpolator=@android:anim/ accelerate_decelerate_interpolator android:fromXScale=0.8333 android:fromYScale=0.8333 android:toXScale=1.2 android:toYScale=1.2 android:pivotX=50% android:pivotY=50% android:fillAfter=false android:duration=350 / scale android:startOffset=350 android:fillBefore=false android:interpolator=@android:anim/ accelerate_decelerate_interpolator android:fromXScale=1.2 android:fromYScale=1.2 android:toXScale=0.8333 android:toYScale=0.8333 android:pivotX=50% android:pivotY=50% android:fillAfter=false android:duration=250 / /set -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Animation problem
I've tried almost exactly the same scenario. It seems like the fromXScale=1.0 does not match the actual apparent size of the view. 1.0 was quite a bit bigger than the original view size. I also tried all the combinations like you did. It was not an emulator speed issue, nor an inconsistency between emulator and hardware device. It was not a fillBefore or fillAfter issue, as far as I can tell, either. For now, my workaround is to adjust the scale parameters downward by an ugly arbitrary amount. For example, fromXScale=0.83 seems to smoothly match the un-animated size on my emulator and on my Galaxy S, regardless of screen density. I made my throb animation go from 0.83 to 1.05, instead of 1.0 to 1.2. But I'm afraid this will just not work on some other device and I'll be back where I started. I thought maybe the problem was a miscalculation of view size involving padding, but no such luck. A layout with no padding, margins, or scaling whatsoever shows the same bad scaling error. I may try to post a YouTube video of the emulator on a simple test-case, but the quoted XML should be sufficient for anyone to see the issue.

Then the animation starts and the view grows and shrinks like I want it. After that there is another jump to the original size of the view. So there are two jumps, which I don't want and I don't know how to solve this problem. Please could you help me.

[android-developers] Re: Animation problem
Thank you for your answer. I tried all 2^6 combinations of the three flags (fillBefore, fillAfter, fillEnabled) but the animation still not works. I only want a pulsate. No matter what I do it is no liquid/smooth animation. It jerks and jumps. I can't find a solution. I would be grateful for help.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Animation problem
jerks and jumps in the emulator, or one the phone? I've found that the emulator is VERY bad at running things at a consistent speed. The phone seems to do a much better job of it.

[android-developers] Re: Animation Problem
I know its too late but Thanks for the reply. Basically what I want is a combination of Translate and rotate animation. I dont know if i chose the right thing as i'm very new to android. I want to animate a object on a random curve (like a freehand drawn curve which has no specific shape).So for this i chose a animation set of translate and rotate animatinos. I hope it makes sense. and also i want to capture clicks on the object while it animates. Do you think you can help me? Probably i chose the wrong approach kindly correct me if so. Actually if you have a little idea of iPhone development, this kind of animation can be achieved by making a image animate on a Path. And this path can be created by us by supplying random values. Its a cake walk in iPhone.
