Note: cross-posted to stack overflow(

I'm creating a Trivia App on Android Studio. For each statement, the user has to select true or false. Based on the input, if the answer they selected is correct, the statement text will fade in green whereas if the user selected the wrong answer, the statement text will shake red. This is my code so far:
List<Question> questionList;
private ActivityMainBinding binding;
private int currentQuestionIndex = 0;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
binding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main);
questionList = new Repository().getQuestions(questionArrayList -> {
binding.questionTextview.setText(questionArrayList.get(currentQuestionIndex)
.getAnswer());
updateCounter(questionArrayList);
}
);
binding.buttonNext.setOnClickListener(view -> {
currentQuestionIndex = (currentQuestionIndex + 1) % questionList.size();
updateQuestion();
});
binding.buttonTrue.setOnClickListener(view -> {
checkAnswer(true);
updateQuestion(); //here
});
binding.buttonFalse.setOnClickListener(view -> {
checkAnswer(false);
updateQuestion(); //here
});
}
//checking if the answer is correct, or not.
private void checkAnswer(boolean userChoseCorrect) {
boolean answer = questionList.get(currentQuestionIndex).isAnswerTrue();
int snackMessageId = 0;
if (userChoseCorrect == answer) {
snackMessageId = R.string.correct_answer;
fadeAnimation();
} else {
snackMessageId = R.string.incorrect;
shakeAnimation();
}
Snackbar.make(binding.cardView, snackMessageId, Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
//updating the counter. The counter will basically display the question # / total questions
private void updateCounter(ArrayList<Question> questionArrayList) {
binding.textViewOutOf.setText(String.format(getString(R.string.text_formatted),
currentQuestionIndex, questionArrayList.size()));
}
private void fadeAnimation() {
AlphaAnimation alphaAnimation = new AlphaAnimation(1.0f, 0.0f);
alphaAnimation.setDuration(300);
alphaAnimation.setRepeatCount(1);
alphaAnimation.setRepeatMode(Animation.REVERSE);
binding.cardView.setAnimation(alphaAnimation);
alphaAnimation.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
@Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
binding.questionTextview.setTextColor(Color.GREEN);
}
@Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
binding.questionTextview.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
}
@Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
}
});
}
private void updateQuestion() {
String question = questionList.get(currentQuestionIndex).getAnswer();
binding.questionTextview.setText(question);
updateCounter((ArrayList<Question>) questionList);
}
private void shakeAnimation() {
Animation shake = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(MainActivity.this,
R.anim.shake_animation);
binding.cardView.setAnimation(shake);
shake.setAnimationListener(new Animation.AnimationListener() {
@Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
binding.questionTextview.setTextColor(Color.RED);
}
@Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
binding.questionTextview.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
}
@Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
}
});
}
The code here is working perfectly fine. However, before I called updateQuestion() (by accident as a
test) in the `onClick` methods of buttonTrue and buttonFalse, the animation was only occurring after I clicked the next button.
Why is updateQuestion() method call necessary to call the animations? Why can't I just call checkAnswer() which will call the animation methods?*
Thank you so much!
