Android textview blinking after changing its visibility using animation [duplicate]

Question

I have some views in the constraint layout. I used animation to reveal and hide the view. When the view is GONE, it blinks for a second and become visible and then gone.

     view.animate()
    .alpha(0.0f)
    .setDuration(300)
    .setListener(new AnimatorListenerAdapter() {
        @Override
        public void onAnimationEnd(Animator animation) {
            super.onAnimationEnd(animation);
            view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    });

Answer 1

I tried your posted code and it seems to work just fine, except when animateLayoutChanges is turned on for the parent of the view you are trying to animate. If you have that enabled in the layout xml, turn it off and try again.

Answer 2

This happens because of using AnimatorListenerAdapter, replace it with withEndAction:

        view.animate()
            .alpha(0.0f)
            .setDuration(300)
            .withEndAction(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                }
            });
