Simple example

Usage

Gradle:

dependencies {
    compile "com.github.andkulikov:transitions-everywhere:1.3.1"
}

Use transition classes from package android.transitions.everywhere.* instead of android.transition.* from android framework Transitions API.

Transitions via XML

If you use XML files to create your transitions you need to put them in the res/anim folder instead of the res/transition folder. You need to use application attributes namespase instead of android:. For example:

<transitionSet xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
               app:duration="400">
    <changeBounds/>
    <fade app:fadingMode="fade_in">
        <targets>
            <target app:targetId="@id/transition_title"/>
        </targets>
    </fade>
</transitionSet>

Transition names of views

Android 5.0 adds new method setTransitionName() for View class. With this library you should call TransitionManager.setTransitionName(View v, String transitionName) method instead to provide backward compatibility.

About library

Transition animations backported to Android 3.0.
For Android ver. >= 2.2 and < 3.0 scene to scene (layout to layout) changes is executed by the same API but without animations.

Note: some of transitions classes was marked as hidden by developers of Android. You can find it in package android.transitions.everywhere.hidden. But i don't recommend to use them because they can work unstable.
