Android CustomTransition Sample

This sample shows how to implement a custom Transition extending the standard Transition class.

Introduction

In order to create a custom Transition, you first need to override captureStartValues and captureEndValues. In those method, you have to extract all the relevant properties from a View. These methods are called for each of the Views in the hierarchy.

Then, you need to override [createAnimator][3] and create an Animator based on the property values you extracted. This method will also be called for each of the Views in the hierarchy. If you want to skip some Views, simply return null.

The instantiated custom Transition can be applied by passing it as the second parameter of [TransitionManager.go][4].

TransitionManager.go(mScenes[mCurrentScene], mTransition);
