title: Scaling a WebView with Property Animations
body: <p>I'm working on a Honeycomb tablet app that needs to scale some UI views as the user interacts with it. So far I've been using Property Animations and it's working pretty well with ImageViews and TextViews but behaves strangely with a WebView.</p>
  
  <pre><code>webView.animate().scaleX(2).setDuration(400);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This code behaves exactly as I want with ImageView and TextView. It smoothly zooms the UI up to double its original size (in this case only in the X direction).</p>
  
  <p>With a WebView it will scale the view to double its original size, but the viewport remains stationary. If I throw a translationX animation in there that doesn't affect the position of the viewport either. How can I get the WebView's contents to scale along with the view?</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE: It turns out that the code I entered here works perfectly in the Android 3.1 emulator. The strange behavior I'm seeing only happens on the actual device. The device I have is a Verizon Motorola Xoom with Android 3.1. I unfortunately don't have any other devices to test it on so I don't know if it's model specific or just a quirk in the release build of the code.</p>
