Animate each item of Listview when displaying

I am trying to show listview elments in a manner that each one of them animates and then become visible so after one by one they animate and get visible to user. but When I implemented the animation, its not working on individial item, but working on the whole listview :(

public View getView(final int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater) activity.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        View row =layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.categories_row, parent, false);




        tvCatName = (TextView) row.findViewById(R.id.tvCatName);

        tvCatName.setText(Data.alCategoriesModels.get(position).catname);


        row.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                Toasts.pop(activity, "Category id :  " + Data.alCategoriesModels.get(position).catID); 

            }
        });

//      row.setAnimation(animation);
        row.startAnimation(animation);

        return row;
    }

You can apply a android:layoutAnimation on the ListView.

  • Create your animation XML file in anim folder. For example (slide_right_in.xml):

    <translate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:fillAfter="true"
        android:duration="400"
        android:fromXDelta="-100%"
        android:toXDelta="0%"/>
    
  • Create another animation XML file with root element layoutAnimation :(my_layout_animation.xml)

    <layoutAnimation xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:animation="@anim/slide_right_in"
        android:delay="0.5"/>
    
  • Apply it on any ViewGroup you want. For example ListView:

    <ListView
        android:layoutAnimation = "@anim/my_layout_animation"
        ... />

here is a tutorial to Android ListView animation

EDIT :
the idea is creating a listener and animate view inside it:

lv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
  @Override
  public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView,final View view, final int position,
      long id) {
           anim.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {

               @Override
              public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
              }

              @Override
              public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {}

              @Override 
              public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
                    ItemDetail item = aAdpt.getItem(position);
                    aAdpt.remove(item);
              }
          });
      view.startAnimation(anim);
  }
});

int delay=(position-list.getFirstVisiblePosition)*200;
if(delay<=200)
    delay=200;
animation.setStartOffset(delay);

After messing with my own Animation implementation which kind of worked half of the times, I've found the ListViewAnimations#ExpandableListItemAdapter which was exactly what I needed.

Here is their API demo app on Google Play: ListViewAnimations
