I'm not clearly understanding the question Steve Hunter

drop.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
   <objectAnimator android:propertyName="scaleY" android:propertyYName="y"

</set>

Hi Mal,

You've pretty much got that. First, close the angle brackets at the end of the line. Inside, you just need android:propertyName="y".

So you have in full:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
  <objectAnimator android:propertyName="y">
</set>

Steve.
