Android Code Snippet [B4X] B4XDialog - show with animation

Slides the dialog from one of the sides.

Sub AnimateDialog (dlg As B4XDialog, FromEdge As String)
    Dim base As B4XView = dlg.Base
    Dim top As Int = base.Top
    Dim left As Int = base.Left
    Select FromEdge.ToLowerCase
        Case "bottom"
            base.Top = base.Parent.Height
        Case "top"
            base.Top = -base.Height
        Case "left"
            base.Left = -base.Width
        Case "right"
            base.Left = base.Parent.Width
    End Select
    base.SetLayoutAnimated(300, left, top, base.Width, base.Height)
End Sub

Usage example:

Sub Globals
    Private dialog As B4XDialog
    Private xui As XUI
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    dialog.Initialize(Activity)
    dialog.Title = "test"
End Sub

Sub Activity_Click
    Dim rs As Object = dialog.Show("aaa", "Ok", "Not Ok", "")
    AnimateDialog(dialog, "right")
    Wait For (rs) Complete (Result As Int)
    If Result = xui.DialogResponse_Positive Then
        '...
    End If
End Sub
