Sliding a View down by a distance: view.animate().translationY(distance); You can later slide the View back to its original position like this: view.animate().translationY(0); You can also easily combine multiple animations. The following animation will slide a … Read more
You can use new Property Animation Api for color animation: int colorFrom = getResources().getColor(R.color.red); int colorTo = getResources().getColor(R.color.blue); ValueAnimator colorAnimation = ValueAnimator.ofObject(new ArgbEvaluator(), colorFrom, colorTo); colorAnimation.setDuration(250); // milliseconds colorAnimation.addUpdateListener(new AnimatorUpdateListener() { @Override public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator animator) { textView.setBackgroundColor((int) animator.getAnimatedValue()); } }); colorAnimation.start(); For backward compatibility with Android 2.x use Nine Old Androids library from Jake … Read more

The approach I’m taking below will show you how to accomplish both methods. The Setup Let’s start … Read more
Two important notes: You need to call layoutIfNeeded within the animation block. Apple actually recommends you call it once before the animation block to ensure that all pending layout operations have been completed You need to call it specifically on the parent view (e.g. self.view), not the child view that has the constraints attached to … Read more
