How do you pause and restart an animations in Android?

Question

I want to know how to pause and restart animations. I followed this code, but it's not working for me:

animRight = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.move_right1);
            animRight.setDuration(3000);
            mTv1.setVisibility(TextView.VISIBLE);
            mTv1.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.hand);
            animRight.setAnimationListener(this);
            mTv1.startAnimation(animRight);

// override methods 

    @Override
    public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
// when animations is finished 
 }

    @Override
    public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
// when animations is start
 }

    @Override
    public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
// when animations is repeated  
 }

Here I want to pause and restart the animation. How do I do this?

Animation do not have a pause method

From the API : Package android.view.animation

Check out the comment on a way to go about this.

There is no pause method.You can go for implementing postDelayed.
