🎨 Customizations & Attributes

All customizable attributes for EasyFlipView

Attribute Name Default Value Description
app:flipOnTouch="true" true Whether card should be flipped on touch or not.
app:flipDuration="400" 400 The duration of flip animation in milliseconds.
app:flipEnabled="true" true If this is set to false, then it won't flip ever in Single View and it has to be always false for RecyclerView
app:flipType="horizontal" vertical Whether card should flip in vertical or horizontal
app:flipType="horizontal" vertical Whether card should flip in vertical or horizontal
app:flipFrom="right" app:flipFrom="back" left front Whether card should flip from left to right Or right to left(Horizontal type) or car should flip to front or back(Vertical type)
app:autoFlipBack="true" false If this is set to true, then he card will be flipped back to original front side after the time set in autoFlipBackTime.
app:autoFlipBackTime="1000" 1000 The time in milliseconds (ms), after the card will be flipped back to original front side.

In Code (Java)

// Flips the view with or without animation
mYourFlipView.flipTheView();
mYourFlipView.flipTheView(false);

// Sets and Gets the Flip Animation Duration in milliseconds (Default is 400 ms)
mYourFlipView.setFlipDuration(1000);
int dur = mYourFlipView.getFlipDuration();

// Sets and gets the flip enable status (Default is true)
mYourFlipView.setFlipEnabled(false);
boolean flipStatus = mYourFlipView.isFlipEnabled();

// Sets and gets the flip on touch status (Default is true)
mYourFlipView.setFlipOntouch(false);
boolean flipTouchStatus = mYourFlipView.isFlipOnTouch();

// Get current flip state in enum (FlipState.FRONT_SIDE or FlipState.BACK_SIDE)
EasyFlipView.FlipState flipSide = mYourFlipView.getCurrentFlipState();

// Get whether front/back side of flip is visible or not.
boolean frontVal = mYourFlipView.isFrontSide();
boolean backVal = mYourFlipView.isBackSide();

// Get/Set the FlipType to FlipType.Horizontal
boolean isHorizontal = mYourFlipView.isHorizontalType();
mYourFlipView.setToHorizontalType();

// Get/Set the FlipType to FlipType.Vertical
boolean isVertical = mYourFlipView.isVerticalType();
mYourFlipView.setToVerticalType();

// Get/Set if the auto flip back is enabled
boolean isAutoFlipBackEnabled = mYourFlipView.isAutoFlipBack();
mYourFlipView.setAutoFlipBack(true);

// Get/Set the time in milliseconds (ms) after the view is auto flip back to original front side
int autoflipBackTimeInMilliseconds = mYourFlipView.getAutoFlipBackTime();
mYourFlipView.setAutoFlipBackTime(2000);

// Sets the animation direction from left (horizontal) and back (vertical)
easyFlipView.setFlipTypeFromLeft();

// Sets the animation direction from right (horizontal) and front (vertical)
easyFlipView.setFlipTypeFromRight();

// Sets the animation direction from front (vertical) and right (horizontal)
easyFlipView.setFlipTypeFromFront();

// Sets the animation direction from back (vertical) and left (horizontal)
easyFlipView.setFlipTypeFromBack();

// Returns the flip type from direction. For horizontal, it will be either right or left and for vertical, it will be front or back.
easyFlipView.getFlipTypeFrom();

Flip Animation Listener

EasyFlipView easyFlipView = (EasyFlipView) findViewById(R.id.easyFlipView);
easyFlipView.setOnFlipListener(new EasyFlipView.OnFlipAnimationListener() {
            @Override
            public void onViewFlipCompleted(EasyFlipView flipView, EasyFlipView.FlipState newCurrentSide) 
            {
                
                // ...
                // Your code goes here
                // ...
                
            }
        });

❌ Known Issues

Clipping when rotation animation is running

To avoid clipping of top/bottom while flipping the view, you can disable it through XML like this

Add android:clipChildren="false" to the parent/root view of EasyFlipView component. And add android:clipToPadding="false" to the EasyFlipView itself. Special thanks to @ueen for this fix #64

EasyFlipView in RecyclerViews

The EasyFlipView doesn't flip when used in RecyclerView. This is because the EasyFlipView uses the onTouch() method to intercept the touch events and flip the view accordingly. One easier solution is to disable the flipOnTouch attribute in XML by this.

app:flipOnTouch="false"

Now, your RecyclerView will scroll but the EasyFlipView will not flip or animate on touch etc. You will have to manually flip the view by calling the method mYourFlipView.flipTheView() inside the adapter or ViewHolder class of the RecyclerView. For example,

public class MyRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyRecyclerViewAdapter.ViewHolder> {

    private List<Object> mData;
    private LayoutInflater mInflater;
    private ItemClickListener mClickListener;

    // data is passed into the constructor
    MyRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, List<Object> data) {
        this.mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
        this.mData = data;
    }

    // inflates the row layout from xml when needed
    @Override
    public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        View view = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.recyclerview_row, parent, false);
        return new ViewHolder(view);
    }

    // binds the data to the TextView in each row
    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
        String textData = (String) mData.get(position);
        holder.myTextView.setText(textData);
    }

    // total number of rows
    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return mData.size();
    }


    // stores and recycles views as they are scrolled off screen
    public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
        TextView myTextView;
	EasyFlipView myEasyFlipView;

        ViewHolder(View itemView) {
            super(itemView);
            myTextView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvAnimalName);
	    myEasyFlipView = itemView.findViewById(R.id.myEasyFlipView);
            itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
        }

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
	    myEasyFlipView.flipTheView();
            if (mClickListener != null) {
	    	mClickListener.onItemClick(view, getAdapterPosition());
	    }
        }
    }

    // convenience method for getting data at click position
    String getItem(int id) {
        return mData.get(id);
    }

    // allows clicks events to be caught
    void setClickListener(ItemClickListener itemClickListener) {
        this.mClickListener = itemClickListener;
    }

    // parent activity will implement this method to respond to click events
    public interface ItemClickListener {
        void onItemClick(View view, int position);
    }
}

The EasyFlipView has a strange behaviour when the back and front layouts are a CardView. To workaround it, wrap your CardView in a FrameLayout or other ViewGroup.
