## Usage

### Download
FadingTextView is available on [JitPack](https://jitpack.io/#rosenpin/fading-text-view/3.3)

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your root build.gradle
``` gradle
allprojects {
repositories {
...
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
```

Step 2. Add the dependency
``` gradle
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.rosenpin:fading-text-view:3.3'
}
```

### Texts

First, you need to create a string-array in your values folder like so:

``` xml

Hello
Fading TextView

```

Then in your layout

``` xml

```

### Timeout

You can set the amount of time that each text is visible by using the timeout attribute and by specifying the length of time in milliseconds. Like so:

``` xml
app:timeout="500"
```

``` xml

```
### Updating the view dynamically - Kotlin
To set the text dynamically, you can use

```kotlin
val texts = arrayOf("text1", "text2", "text3")
val fadingTextView = findViewById(R.id.fadingTextView)
fadingTextView.setTexts(texts) // You can use an array resource or a string array as the parameter
//fadingTextView.setTexts(R.array.examples)
```

To set the timeout between text changes you can use:

```kotlin
//For text change once every hour
fadingTextView.setTimeout(60.minutes)

//For text change once every half a minute
fadingTextView.setTimeout(0.5.minutes)

//For text change every 10 seconds
fadingTextView.setTimeout(10.seconds)

//For text change every 500 milliseconds (0.5 seconds)
fadingTextView.setTimeout(500.milliseconds)
```

Or you can shuffle texts that you set

```kotlin
fadingTextView.shuffle()
```

### Updating the view dynamically - JAVA
To set the text dynamically, you can use

```java
String[] texts = {"text1","text2","text3"};
FadingTextView FTV = (FadingTextView) findViewById(R.id.fadingTextView);
FTV.setTexts(texts); //You can use an array resource or a string array as the parameter
```

To set the timeout between text changes you can use:

```java
//For text change once every hour
FTV.setTimeout(60, MINUTES);

//For text change once every half a minute
FTV.setTimeout(0.5, MINUTES);

//For text change every 10 seconds
FTV.setTimeout(10, SECONDS);

//For text change every 500 milliseconds (0.5 seconds)
FTV.setTimeout(500, MILLISECONDS);
```

### Shuffle
You can randomize the order of the strings using the `shuffle` method\
Note: you will need to run the `shuffle` method after each time you update the view\
Example:
```
FTV.setTexts(texts);
FTV.shuffle();
```
