Activity launched by launcher, Custom Animation

Question

I have an app, which uses a custom ActionBar.Whenever my app is launched by the launcher (or any other app), it has a zoom in animation, of an empty view with Default ActionBar, when the animation finishes, I get my view, and this transition doesn't look that good.

I've found the following Video, which shows how to create an animation within your app.Can I change the lunch animation to a custom Bitmap, and how?

You'll have to create your own theme with a custom android:windowAnimationStyle.

Some additional resources on animations in XML:

This answer is great, but it lakes of explanation about the animation xml file itself. – Kirill Kulakov Apr 27 '13 at 08:27
I'm sure there's lots of documentation about animations in Android out there. – TomTasche Apr 27 '13 at 08:32
