Fill width with dots

Is there a way to fill the whole width with "dots"? Currently I'm setting the dots by setting app:LoadingDots_dots_count="12" but is there a way to fill the entire remaining space?

Add the possibility of pass an array of colors and assign each color to a dot

Hi. This is not a proper pull request because my code is not able to be implemented but I'm a beginner coder and when I tried to do a method and pass the array I had so many error. This is basically the idea of each dot having a different color with respect to the others.

Would you consider adding a link to our tutorial to the readme?

Hey @EyalBira, thank you for creating loading-dots, this lib is awesome 🎉

@MilanVucic and I work with a company called CometChat creating tutorials. We are collaborating on a Kotlin tutorial called "Adding animated typing indicators to your Kotlin chat app" (exact title TBD) and we used loading-dots for the typing indicators!

Here's a snippet:

typingLayout is just a piece of the layout that contains the TextView for showing the people who are typing as well as this neat “3 dots jumping up and down” animation, for which I used this awesome 3rd party library. You can create your own too, but it’s just easier to use this one. If nobody is typing, the layout hides, and if people are typing, we simply format the message to resemble that state :

When we publish the tutorial in the coming days, is there any chance we can add a link to the README as a real-world (ish) example of loading-dots?

NullPointerException on ValueAnimator

I've got a NPE when updating the visibility of LoadingDots to Visible.

Stacktrace: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean android.animation.ValueAnimator.isRunning()' on a null object reference at com.eyalbira.loadingdots.LoadingDots.startAnimationIfAttached(LoadingDots.java:167) at com.eyalbira.loadingdots.LoadingDots.setVisibility(LoadingDots.java:148)

I have LoadingDots_auto_play=false. I checked the code and found the issue here: private void startAnimationIfAttached() { if (mIsAttachedToWindow && !mAnimation.isRunning()) { mAnimation.start(); } }

It seems that mAnimation is null when autoplay is false. You've added check whether mAnimation is null anywhere you are invoking methods on it but here :)
