How set a 'timer' before running body from if/else statement?

How set a 'timer' before running body from if/else statement?



In android studio, I want to set some kind of 'timer' before the if/else statement runs parts of it's body. In this case the edit1.setText("") and edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FFFFFFF")); Is there a way to do this.


if/else


edit1.setText("")


edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FFFFFFF"));



Thanks in advance, have a nice day!



EDIT: I'm not using any UI libraries.


public void check1(View view)
uinput = edit1.getText().toString();
if (uinput.equals(answerList[0]))
edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#00FF00"));
score++;
score_view.setText(String.valueOf(score));

// I only want to delay the three below.

view1.setText(questionList[1]);
edit1.setText("");
edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FFFFFF"));
else
edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FF0000"));
wrong++;
wrong_view.setText(String.valueOf(wrong));

// I only want to delay the three below.

view1.setText(questionList[1]);
edit1.setText("");
edit1.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FFFFFFF"));






If this is Swing, you'll probably want to use Swing Timers to execute this.

You say you're not using any UI libraries, but you're using methods and classes that suggests you're using Swing. Is that not the case?

If I understand right I need to declare a library? If so I'm not using swing or anything else.

View





view is a TextView. And the View in the method is from onClick.
