                Animation animation1 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getApplicationContext(), R.anim.slidedown);
                layoutToAdd.addView(view);
                view.startAnimation(animation1);
                Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "animation opened", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                if ( view != null) {
                    layoutToAdd.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

                        @Override
                        public void onClick(View v) {
                            if (view.isShown()) {
                                Animation animation1 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getApplicationContext(), R.anim.slideup);
                                view.startAnimation(animation1);
                                ((LinearLayout) view.getParent()).removeView(view);
                                Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "animation closed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

                            }
                        }

                }

            }
        });
    }

xml

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout

    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/map"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"

An info window is not a live View, rather the view is rendered as an image onto the map. As a result, any listeners you set on the view are disregarded and you cannot distinguish between click events on various parts of the view. You are advised not to place interactive components — such as buttons, checkboxes, or text inputs — within your custom info window.
