incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a

result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the

work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all

other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor

has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing

and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,

or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this

`ShimmerLayout` can be used to add shimmer effect (like the one used at Facebook or at LinkedIn) to your Android application. Beside memory efficiency even animating a big layout, you can modify the shimmer color and the speed of the animation as well.


Get the latest artifact via gradle

Create the layout on which you want to apply the effect and add as a child of a `ShimmerLayout`

<io.supercharge.shimmerlayout.ShimmerLayout

android:id="@+id/shimmer_text"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="40dp"

android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"

android:layout_marginTop="50dp"

android:paddingLeft="30dp"

android:paddingRight="30dp"

app:shimmer_animation_duration="1200">

<TextView

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:gravity="center"

android:text="ShimmerLayout"

android:textColor="@color/shimmer_background_color"

android:textSize="26sp"/>

</io.supercharge.shimmerlayout.ShimmerLayout>

Last, but not least you have to start it from your Java code

ShimmerLayout shimmerText = (ShimmerLayout) findViewById(R.id.shimmer_text);

shimmerText.startShimmerAnimation();
