277 PointsCrystal Ball Animation not Displaying on Emulator
I am trying to get the CrystalBall animation running. I followed all the steps, it works fine, except the background animation. I uploaded all the files to the specified drawable-mdpi folder. Here's my code for the background animation:
private void animateCrystalBall() {
ImageView crystalBallImage = (ImageView) findViewById (R.id.imageView1);
crystalBallImage.setImageResource(R.drawable.ball_animation);
AnimationDrawable ballAnimation = (AnimationDrawable) crystalBallImage.getDrawable();
if (ballAnimation.isRunning()) {
ballAnimation.stop();
}
ballAnimation.start();
However, when I press the button, it just shows the second image.
