How can i keep an animation alive while the transitions between activities are occurring? Suppose that i have two activities A and B. Activity B has a "slide in" transition over the activity A. I want to keep a button rotating in my activity A while the transition of B is occurring. My button stop the rotating animation when the Activity B starts the slide over the activity A. I guess it happens because the android switch the UI Thread process to the new activity that is coming and stop what the previous activity was doing, but in my case the user still can see the activity A being covered by

I'm experiencing a strange issue / bug regarding ImageView transitions between Activities in Android 5.0. I'm trying to transition a thumbnail image from Fragment A (in Activity A ) to the header image of Fragment B (in Activity B ). It works well most of the time, but it sometimes messes up ever so slightly. Here's a picture of what it looks like when it messes up: Naturally, it's supposed to fill the entire area. Both ImageViews are set to ScaleType.CENTER_CROP , so I can't imagine that being the issue. What's curious is that the issue fixes itself immediately upon scrolling in Activity B

So we're trying to create an across activity image transition from an image in a ListView, to an image in a ViewPager gallery.In doing this transition we're seeing the animation happen before the ViewPager finishes loading/drawing. This causes the image on the ViewPager to flash making the animation look bad. As a test we put an image overtop to fake the look of the ViewPager being loaded. We then transition from the image in the ListView to this 'dummy' ImageView, and then hide it after the transition is complete. This helped but still didn't create a smooth experience since things would

So, the problem I am facing is that the animation I do between two Activities and two shared views is not looking great. The problem is that its "glitchy", when going from Activity2 back to Activity1, the TextViews being shared sort of blinks at the end of the animation, revealing the "bigger text" from Activity2 for a fraction of a second, so it "blinks". Activity 1 (RecyclerView with three items): Activity 2 (Details): I filmed the screen, while doing the animation. When going back from Activity2 to Activit2, you can see the text blink at the very end. This video (36MB, sorry for size) shows

I wanted to setup a shared element transition when going from one Activity to another. The first Activity has a RecyclerView with items. When an item is clicked that item should animate to the new activity. So i've set a android:transitionName="item" on both the final activity views, as wel as the recycler-view item views. I'm also using this code when going to the next activity: this.startActivity(intent, ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, itemView, "boomrang_item").toBundle()); When clicking an item, it transitions properly and the new view is shown. It is really nice.
