Update Progressbar according to ImageSwitcher progress

Question

I currently have implemented an ImageSwitcher in my app, which slides through an array of pictures. Now I want to have a ProgressBar under the picture which shows on which position we are in the collection so the user gets a feeling of how much pictures are left.

Is this possible? Can I have some advices on how I might implement this?

Picture:

progress [--|--------]

My ImageSwticher:

Answer 1

now i like to have an progress bar under the picture which shows on which position we are in the collection. so that someone gets a feeling how much pictures are left.

1. Place a ProgressBar in your R.layout.slider layout file

2. Make the four different Animations that you used for the ImageSwitcher's transitions as fields in your Activity and also set an AnimationListener for each of them:

   //...
   private Animation mIn1, mOut1, mIn2, mOut2;
   
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       setContentView(R.layout.slider);
       final ProgressBar = (ProgressBar) findViewById(R.id.theIdOfTheProgressBar);
       mIn1 =   AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(l2_AltInvestActivity.this,android.R.anim.slide_in_left);
       mOut1 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(l2_AltInvestActivity.this,android.R.anim.slide_out_right);
       mIn2 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(l2_AltInvestActivity.this,R.anim.slide_in_right);
       mOut2 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(l2_AltInvestActivity.this,R.anim.slide_out_left);
       AnimationListener mAnimListener = new AnimationListener() {
   
       public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
           // the in animation has ended so update the ProgressBar with the new 
           // progress
           mProgressBar.setProgress(curIndex); // I don't know your progress?!? 
       }   
        // rest of the callbacks
       });  
       //set this listener for the both of the in animations 
       mIn1.setAnimationListener(mAnimListener);  
       mIn2.setAnimationListener(mAnimListener);
       // rest of the onCreate method
   

3. In the onTouch method update the ImageSwitcher with the proper animations(from mIn1, mOut1, mIn2, mOut2)
