Article about transitions and library (in Russian language)

1.4.0 - Merge with Android M Preview sources

1.2.0 - 1.2.2 - Bug fix

Gradle:

dependencies {
    compile "com.github.andkulikov:transitions-everywhere:1.4.0"
}

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

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>

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.

-keep class android.transitions.everywhere.** { *; }
-keep class android.transitions.everywhere.**.** { *; }

Transition animations backported to Android 3.1.
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.
