Animate custom Dialog programmatically

Question

I would like to set some animations to my custom dialog and I would like to do it programmatically. I know I can do it like this with xml animations:

<style name="DialogAnimation">
    <item name="android:windowEnterAnimation">@anim/slide_up_dialog</item>
    <item name="android:windowExitAnimation">@anim/slide_out_down</item>
</style>


Dialog imageDiaglog= new Dialog(MainActivity.this,R.style.DialogAnimation);

But I would like to do it programmatically. How can I set my programmatically created animations to Dialog's show() and hide() methods?

Thank you.

You cant because the dialog uses the style element for the animation transition. And You cannot set the style elements programmatically.

You can use DialogFragment and set the animation in onCreateDialog(Dialog) or onStart(). Example from here:

@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Dialog dialog = super.onCreateDialog(savedInstanceState);
    dialog.getWindow().getAttributes().windowAnimations = R.style.detailDialogAnimation;
    return dialog;
}

I need animation programatically.. not from animation file – Ranjith Kumar Nov 26 '15 at 09:17
You should be able to use `getDialog().getWindow().setEnterTransition(yourTransition);`. You may need to call `dialog.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS);` – Jared Rummler Nov 26 '15 at 10:18
