Leaving an Android Animation at it's end state

Question

I'm trying to do an animation that takes a button (with a custom background image and system text) and fades it out. That works fine, actually. The issue is after the animation it goes back to it's initial state. I want it to animate and stay that way.

Thanks!

Answer 1

AlphaAnimation anim = new AlphaAnimation(1, 0.2f);
anim.setDuration (5000);
textView.startAnimation (anim);
anim.setFillAfter(true);

That should work.
