Google Now and Google+ (Android) both make use of a card-like interface.
I was wondering if anyone had any idea how this interface can be replicated on Android.
They both have quite interesting animations for displaying new cards too; any thoughts would be great.
I have posted a tutorial on how to replicate / create Google Cards style layout here.
Key steps
Heres a code snippet
@Override
public void onGlobalLayout() {
getViewTreeObserver().removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this);
final int heightPx = getContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics().heightPixels;
boolean inversed = false;
final int childCount = getChildCount();
for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
View child = getChildAt(i);
int[] location = new int[2];
child.getLocationOnScreen(location);
if (location[1] > heightPx) {
break;
}
if (!inversed) {
child.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getContext(),
R.anim.slide_up_left));
} else {
child.startAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getContext(),
R.anim.slide_up_right));
}
inversed = !inversed;
}
}
