Performing Animation in Android

Step1: create anim folder under res directory in ur project.

Step2: create an slideleft.xml file

Step3: type the following code in that file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator">
<translate android:fromXDelta="100%p" android:toXDelta="0"
android:duration="400" />
</set>

step 4: similarly create slideright.xml

step5: use the above code, but change the following

<translate android:fromXDelta="-100%p" android:toXDelta="0"
android:duration="400" />

step 6:

target.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(HomeScreen.this, R.anim.slide_left));

perfroming fadein operation, just add the following code in fadein.xml file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<alpha xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0"
android:duration="300" />

similarly for fade out too

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<alpha xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
android:fromAlpha="1.0" android:toAlpha="0.0"
android:duration="300" />
