Comprehensive Android Developer Bootcamp - Adding a Shake Animation

The video tutorial introduces animations in Android, focusing on creating and implementing animations using XML and code. It guides through setting up an XML animation file, specifically a shake animation, and demonstrates how to integrate it into an Android app. The tutorial also covers debugging and testing the animation to ensure it functions correctly, providing a hands-on approach to enhancing app interactivity.

What are the two methods to create animations in Android?

• Using XML and direct code

• Using CSS and direct code

• Using XML and JavaScript

• Using HTML and JavaScript

What is the first step in creating an XML animation file?

• Create an Android resource directory

• Create a new project

• Create a new XML layout

• Create a new Java class

In the XML animation code, what does the 'duration' attribute specify?

• The speed of the animation

• The color of the animation

• The size of the animation

• The type of the animation

What does the 'repeatMode' attribute in the XML animation code control?

• The color of the animation

• The direction of the animation

• The repetition behavior of the animation

• The size of the animation

What is the purpose of the 'pivotY' attribute in the XML animation?

• To set the color of the animation

• To set the speed of the animation

• To set the horizontal pivot point for rotation

• To set the vertical pivot point for rotation

What is the first step in implementing the shake animation in code?

• Create a new Java class

• Instantiate the animation class

• Run the application

• Create a new XML layout

Why was the shake animation not visible initially when an incorrect answer was selected?

• The update method was not called

• The animation was too fast

• The animation was not linked to the correct view

• The animation file was missing
