一、概述
    
开发中发现在
WindowManager上像在Activity中使用动画效果无效，比如下面的代码：

        ImageView iv = new ImageView(this);
        iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.ic_launcher);
        TranslateAnimation animation = new TranslateAnimation(
                Animation.ABSOLUTE, 20, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 300,
                Animation.ABSOLUTE, 100, Animation.ABSOLUTE, 400);
        animation.setDuration(1000);
        animation.setFillAfter(false);
        iv.setAnimation(animation);

        WindowManager mWindowManager = (WindowManager) this
                .getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
        WindowManager.LayoutParams mLayoutParams = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
        mLayoutParams.x = 20;
        mLayoutParams.y = 100;
        mLayoutParams.height = WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT;
        mLayoutParams.width = WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT;
        mLayoutParams.gravity = Gravity.TOP;
        mLayoutParams.flags = WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE
                | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE
                | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON
                | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_IN_SCREEN;
        mWindowManager.addView(iv, mLayoutParams);

        animation.start();

二、分析   为什么会不执行动画呢，原因在于：the view which is going to be animated must not be directly added to the top window, because top window of android is not a real ViewGroup. so the view must be added to a ViewGroup like FrameLayout first and then this ViewGroup be added to the top window.意思是说动画执行的条件是不能直接添加到最顶层的Window，而是需要一个容器。比如，在xml中定义的控件就可以使用动画。   
后来发现一种解决方案是WindowManager.LayoutParams有一个动画属性：windowAnimations，可以这样使用

   lp = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE
                              | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE
                              | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCHABLE, 
                    PixelFormat.RGBA_8888);
          lp.gravity = Gravity.LEFT |Gravity.TOP;
          lp.windowAnimations = R.style.anim_view;//动画
          wm = (WindowManager) getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
          wm.addView(view, lp);

  
但是，这是对整个View的一个动画，而不是View中某个控件的动画。而且，使用的时候需要在View状态改变的时候才会出现动画效果。比如消失/出现的时候才会有动画效果。因此这个方案也是行不通的。
  既然WindowManager不是一个ViewGroup，那么就构造一个容器来装载WindowManager，可以如下：

/**

               switch (msg.what) {
               case 1:
                    showAnimator();
                    break;

               default:
                    break;
               }

     };

     /**

          setAnimator();
          getWindowManager(context);
     }

     /**

          wManager = (WindowManager) context.getApplicationContext()

          wmParams = new WindowManager.LayoutParams();
          wmParams.type = WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT;
          wmParams.format = PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT;
          wmParams.flags = WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_TOUCH_MODAL

          showAnimator[0] = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(mTextView, "alpha",

          mShowAnimatorSet.playTogether(showAnimator);
          mShowAnimatorSet.setDuration(1500l);

          mHideAnimatorSet = new AnimatorSet();
          Animator[] hideAnimator = new Animator[2];
          hideAnimator[0] = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(mTextView, "alpha",

     }

     public void showAnimator() {

          mShowAnimatorSet.start();
          isAddView=true;
     }

     public void hideAnimator() {
          mHideAnimatorSet.start();
          mHideAnimatorSet.addListener(new AnimatorListener() {

               @Override
               public void onAnimationStart(Animator animation) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

               }

               @Override

                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

               }

               @Override

     }

     public void sendMessage() {
          if (isAddView) {
               wManager.removeView(this);
               mHandler.removeMessages(1);
               isAddView=false;
          }
          mHandler.sendEmptyMessage(1);
          wManager.addView(this, wmParams);
     }

}

  
这样一来，就可以实现在WindowManager上的动画效果了。其实，造成这种现象的原因在于对Android API以及其体系的理解不够深刻。忽略了动画执行所需要的基本条件，影射的问题就是考虑问题不够全面。所以，不论开发哪种功能，使用哪个API，前期的规划、调研很重要。知己知彼，仅此而已。
