How to run animation sequences more than single time

Question

I am using sequence for animation in my project. I have set onClickListener to that image where I put animation sequences. now when first time I run the code, and click on image, it start run animation correctly but then it never run again on click. I have to again run the code. So how I can run animation sequences more than one time? I have put my codebelow to start animation sequence.

image.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

      @Override           
      public void onClick(View v) {

          // TODO Auto-generated method stub

          animation_door = (AnimationDrawable) image.getBackground();
          animation_door.start();

} });

Show your xml for animation also. – Lalit Poptani Sep 06 '11 at 14:01 — Lalit Poptani, Sep 06 '11 at 14:01

Well, before clicking your button again you have to stop the animation also, so you can try it like this,

 image.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override           
            public void onClick(View v) {

                animation_door = (AnimationDrawable) image.getBackground();
                animation_door.stop();
                animation_door.start();         
              }
          });

Is your animation set as a oneShot? It's most likely in the end state and you just need to hint it back to the start state.

AnimationDrawable door = (AnimationDrawable) image.getBackground();
door.setOneShot(false);
door.start();

Keep in mind this will most likely lead to a looping animation, which you probably don't want. You could consider using an Animation Set instead since you'll have a bit more control over the animation itself.
