I am using the AppIntro https://github.com/apl-devs/AppIntro library with the default slides builder.

It works great but I am having trouble passing gifs as the drawable for the default builder.

addSlide(AppIntroFragment.newInstance(title, description, image, backgroundColor));

I read that android has issues displaying gif by default and I have to use GifImageLoader or Glide to load the gif. 

Glide
 .with(context)
 .load("imageUrl")
 .asGif()
 .placeholder(R.drawable.gifImage) 
 .crossFade()
 .into(imageView)

I could try this but I don't have an imageView where I can pass into the argument if I use the default builder.

I also tried GifDrawable gifFromResource = new GifDrawable( getResources(), R.drawable.anim ); from Display Animated GIF but it gives an error.

My next closest option is to create a custom fragment to use with AppIntro and I really don't want to do that.

Is there any way to pass the gif into the default slide builder and have it play?

You can use Simple Target from Glide library. Override onResourceReady() and load this as image in new slide. Please note I have not tried this with gif and have not access to my dev machine now.

  • `Glide.with( context ).load( eatFoodyImages[0] ).asBitmap().into( target );` I tried replacing asBitmap as per the wiki with asGif but that does not seems to work. Regardless, I have tried using Nilesh's suggestion and that seems to work for me. Not sure if I should post that as an answer or not. – Cheer Chunhao Jul 22 '17 at 09:23
