How do I force a ViewGroup to draw off screen?
<p>I have several LinearLayouts that get filled with downloaded images or text within a ScrollView.  The LinearLayouts have a LayoutAnimation applied to them, so each one "slides" into place when drawn.  Is there a way to force the offscreen LinearLayouts to draw so that by the time the user scrolls to them, the animation has already completed?  I've tried measuring each view like so: (<strong>container</strong> is the ViewGroup)</p>

<pre><code>int measuredWidth = View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, View.MeasureSpec.AT_MOST); 
int measuredHeight = View.MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, View.MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED); 
container.measure(measuredWidth, measuredHeight); 
container.layout(0, 0, container.getMeasuredWidth(), container.getMeasuredHeight());
container.requestLayout();
</code></pre>

<p>But they still won't draw until they appear on screen during scrolling (which normally is fine but the animation makes it.. er, not fine)</p>
