Android alpha animation: Staying in last animation frame when animation is completed

Question

I'm fading out an imageview with alpha animation. I'd like the image to stay transparent after the animation. Tried with different combinations of fillAfter and fillEnabled, no luck. How can this be achieved?

Answer 1

setting fillEnabled and fillAfter to true always works for me.

anim = new AlphaAnimation(0.3f, 1.0f);
anim.setDuration(500);
anim.setFillEnabled(true);
anim.setFillAfter(true);
<view>.startAnimation(anim);

Answer 2

Add an Animation.AnimationListener to the Animation via setAnimationListener(). In onAnimationEnd() of the listener, call setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE) on the ImageView.
