Android Question How to stop animation when lazy loading xCustomListView

[bsnqt]

Hi Erel and All

Basically it is just a xcustomlistview simple project I have modified from the posts by:

1) Erel's:

[B4X] [XUI] CustomListView - lazy loading / virtualization

xCustomListView v1.50 adds an important new event named VisibleRangeChanged. This event is fired whenever the visible range of items changes. We can use this event to defer the items creation. This can significantly improve the performance of lists with complex items. As an example, if we try...

2) Peter Simpson's:

? Part 1 Basics - Creating long lists using xCustomListView with Lazy Loading - Newer developers

Hello All After thinking about it yesterday and having a quick chat with Erel, I decided that my previous long list examples were not basic enough for newer B4X developers, so I put together a minimal xCLV with LL code example together with comments in the code module. There are no themes...

My questions are:
1) how can I stop the animation of the listviewitems when they are loading (please see the project) in the xcustomlistview?
2) more generally, how I stop all animations of my app (for all views)?

I have already set the "Insert Animation Duration" property to 0.

how can I stop the animation of the listviewitems when they are loading

I hardly noticed any animation. holdup even when I use:

Pnl.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 0, 0, CustomListView1.AsView.Width, 60dip)

Try to run it in Release mode, maybe you will like it better. I did, super fast..
@bsnqt : You must be getting picky (of course I am kidding). If you are still not satisfied even in 'Release', please request in a post better help from someone else or Erel.

Thank you for your quick reply and help. I just wonder why you are always so quick ?

Haha, I am not picky at all . Actually I run my project always in Release mode. And as I set all animations to 0 in my test device's developer settings, I did not notice any animation at all until today when I tested my project with my friend's new phone (Galaxy Fold3), and he complains he feel dizzy with too strong animations of the app. They are really noticeable. So I want to cancel / stop all animations. My project is an educational one and quite dry and serious, so animation looks not really appropriate... I still think I need to stop the animation, unfortunately

Please see the screen record in attached.

@bsnqt you will have to make 'animation=0' in designer of the 'items' layout

Hi Anand,

I set the "animation" property of the Activity in the "infoitem" layout to = 0. And it did work! My mistake was that I paid attention only to xCustomListview and the listviewitems (which are label) but not the activity. And now that solution can answer both of my questions. Thank you very much.

Sad, I need to go back to learn more basics of B4A especially Designer or need to be more careful next time
