I am new to NativeScript and Javascript development in general. My background is Android.
Background:
As a test I try to replicate one of my old apps with NativeScript and have encountered a problem:
I use a RadListView with multiple templates. The correct template is chosen at runtime. The templateSelector uses a boolean variable to determine the correct one. (Imagine tapping a ListView item. When you do it expands and shows 2 buttons. You tap it again -> the buttons disappear.)
Now that works just fine.
Problem
My problem is that I cannot figure out how to animate the template switch. The new content just appears/disappear instantanously.
What I managed so far
I managed to animate the buttons when their template has just been chosen. I set their opacity to 0 and animated it to 1. Problem is: The necessery height for the buttons is reserved as soon as the template is chosen.
Question
Is this at all possible? If so how?
