I think View1 is always going to have an intrinsic height of its measured height for the layout. That is to say, an animation isn't going to change a view's measured height over time, it will just change the way it appears on screen over the duration of the animation. The mere presence of View1 in your layout will cause the layout to set aside its measured dimensions.
I could be wrong, but I don't think an animation with a layout like this is going to achieve the effect you're looking for. You may have to do something where you change the measured height of the view over time and invalidate the view/layout at every tick to get it to re- render everything.
