No way to stop animations

[veerenmandalia]

There is no way to stop swipe animations from running. Looks like SwipeActionTouchListener controls animations and only starts them, never stopping them.

Example use case:

1. User starts swiping, animation starts
2. User minimizes screen (onPause occurs), animation continues
3. Animation finishes while screen is minimized

When onPause is called, clients should be able to stop all animations (standard practice). 2 issues arise:

1. Animations continues when user is not on the screen (unnecessary performance hit)
2. The listener fires when the app does not care about the result

I have removed the listener in onPause so that callbacks won't be executed (solves 2), however, it would be great to be able to stop the animations from running.

I understand where you're coming from, but the animations are really short. You have to try really hard to hit any of these cases and even the the user only loses the opportunity to cancel his action.

You can also hit the alternative case: user swipes, and hits home (or whatever other action that causes onPause to run). His action will never execute, even though he saw the animation trigger.
I'm not sure which one of these is preferable.
