Opposite of View.bringToFront() in Android

Question

Hi,

I was wondering if there is some opposite method of View.bringToFront()? When i call bringToFront() my whole screen get locked cause i have some problem with overriding the onMeasure() method(when i implement onMeasure, my custom View doesn't draw itself even it enters onDraw method) and my cutom View takes up the whole screen....

I badly need bringToFront() but I need to start some animation that lasts for 3 seconds and by calling bringToFront() user input doesn't work anymore.

Can I reset that bringToFront()?

Thx in advance for help
