romainpiel / shimmer-android Goto Github PK

I took a quick look into the source code. It seems that the magic is happening in LinearGradientFactory. is it possible to customize the class to supports shades going from right to left? This would be great if you consider RTL languages.

Was wondering if the there is some way that i can get the shimmer effect with a drwable in the shimmer text view?

https://github.com/RomainPiel/Shimmer-android/blob/master/library/src/main/java/com/romainpiel/shimmer/Shimmer.java

animator = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(shimmerView, "gradientX", fromX, toX);

Using reflection in this method throws NoSuchMethod Exceptopm when build by proguard.
add -keep class com.shimmer.{;}" and fix the problem.

what a pity that the awesome Shimmer is not compatibility below Android3.
My fix is use the https://github.com/JakeWharton/NineOldAndroids

Currently the Shimmer is just a TextView on Steroids. Couldn’t it support any view and views hierarchy as the original iOS version does?

its wonder full project that you have done, i'm using this project in my app but is there any option in set different font

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDevDebugResources'.

I want to reference the library in my project(https://github.com/snowdream/android-widgets).i get the error as follows.
It seems that the minSdkVersion of my project is 8, but your minSdkVersion is 14.
If your library is avaiable for minSdkVersion 8, can you modify it to minSdkVersion 8,thank you.

Main manifest has <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion='8'> but library uses minSdkVersion='14'

how can I add xmlns:app="http://" to use "app:reflectionColor="#f00""

shimmer.setRepeatCount(0)

Even though fixed in the Github code, the 1.4.0 aar file that you download from maven.org still contains the ic_launcher.png files.

To verify, please download the aar file directly, unzip it, and see the ic_launcher.png files inside:
http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/romainpiel/shimmer/library/1.4.0/library-1.4.0.aar

Original issue is here: #20

The shimmer animation doesnt work on android 5.1+

ive tested on my moto g running 5.1 and nexus 5 running 6,

it runs properly on ym samsung kitkat device

I really hate to bring this up myself but it's reality that the large portion of devices out there is running on Android 2.x.
Would you consider replace animation related package imports to NineOldAndroid?

It simply does not reproduce any animation inside Fragment of a ViewPager. Haven't been able to solve it yet.

Does the Runnable inside Shimmer.java properly stop? It seems to be causing a memory leak for me.

android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"

My app icon turns into 'ic_launcher.png' of the shimmer library on Nexus 5(Android 5.1).But on the other phones Android 4.+ it's my 'ic_launcher.png'. How to fix ? change my icon file name ?

Just my ¢2

• Most of the time is a bad idea to have new in your draw methods, you'd get a bunch of jank as they are called often specially on animation, and currently there are three of them at LinearGradientFactory#resize method, given that Shaders are immutable, would you consider using a LRU cache?
• For 16+ onAnimationEnd consider using postInvalidateOnAnimation instead of postInvalidate
