Remarks

This class enables automatic and optimized animation of select properties on View objects. If only one or two properties on a View object are being animated, then using an android.animation.ObjectAnimator is fine; the property setters called by ObjectAnimator are well equipped to do the right thing to set the property and invalidate the view appropriately. But if several properties are animated simultaneously, or if you just want a more convenient syntax to animate a specific property, then ViewPropertyAnimator might be more well-suited to the task.

This class may provide better performance for several simultaneous animations, because it will optimize invalidate calls to take place only once for several properties instead of each animated property independently causing its own invalidation. Also, the syntax of using this class could be easier to use because the caller need only tell the View object which property to animate, and the value to animate either to or by, and this class handles the details of configuring the underlying Animator class and starting it.

This class is not constructed by the caller, but rather by the View whose properties it will animate. Calls to android.view.View#animate() will return a reference to the appropriate ViewPropertyAnimator object for that View.
