Public methods
    currentAnimationTimeMillis
    
public static long currentAnimationTimeMillis ()
    
    
    
  Returns the current animation time in milliseconds. This time should be used when invoking
 Animation.setStartTime(long). Refer to SystemClock for more
 information about the different available clocks. The clock used by this method is
 not the "wall" clock (it is not System.currentTimeMillis).
    
      | Returns | 
|---|
      
        | long | the current animation time in milliseconds | 
    
  
 
    loadAnimation
    
public static Animation loadAnimation (Context context, 
                int id)
    
    
    
  Loads an Animation object from a resource
    
    | Parameters | 
|---|
      
        | context | Context: Application context used to access resources |

  Make an animation for objects becoming visible. Uses a slide and fade
 effect.
    
    | Parameters | 
|---|
      
        | c | Context: Context for loading resources |

public static Animation makeOutAnimation (Context c, 
                boolean toRight)
    
    
    
  Make an animation for objects becoming invisible. Uses a slide and fade
 effect.
    
    | Parameters | 
|---|
      
        | c | Context: Context for loading resources |
