ExpandableLinearLayout not animating vertically even if app:ael_orientation = "vertical" about expandablelayout HOT 6 OPEN

I had the same issue, the that I found is to use
android:orientation="vertical"
as an attribute because it extends LinearLayout. Enjoy.

Hello AbduazizKayumov,

I managed to find a solution for this problem. I have also text that is coming from server so it will change it's size dynamically.

You have to use ExpandableRelativeLayout like this:

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/expandableButton1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@color/dark_green2"
        android:drawableRight="@android:drawable/arrow_down_float"
        android:onClick="expandableButton1"
        android:text=""
        android:textColor="#fff"
        android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:visibility="gone" />

    <com.github.aakira.expandablelayout.ExpandableRelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/expandableLayout1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@color/light_green2"
        android:padding="16dp"
        app:ael_duration="400"
        app:ael_expanded="true"
        app:ael_interpolator="bounce"
        app:ael_orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_below="@+id/expandableButton1"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:visibility="gone">

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:id="@+id/expandableText1"
            android:text="Loading stuff from internet..."/>
    </com.github.aakira.expandablelayout.ExpandableRelativeLayout>

Note here that I use: android:visibility="gone" by default. This makes view invisible at first. We will make it visible on Java code.

Then on Java code, add function like this, before you call your mOverlayText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()

public void makeViewsVisible() {
View view1 = findViewById(R.id.expandableButton1);
View view1_text = findViewById(R.id.expandableLayout1);

view1.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
view1_text.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);

}

You have to also call this function from inside your mOverlayText.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener().

For me it works, does not matter that I have text coming from server. Also there is no problem with animation.

Hope this helps!

@dude0367 your solution fixed it for me. I have both ael_orientation=vertical and android:orientation='vertical' and it works now. Thanks
