How to animate activity without finishing previous activity - android

In my application I want to animate my activity from right to left. Till now I am try this :
startActivity(intent);
finish();
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_right,R.anim.slide_out_left);
and this working fine but my previous activity got finished. What I want to do the same animation without finishing previous activity.
while trying like this :
startActivity(intent);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in_right,R.anim.slide_out_left);
only newly started activity go into animation and previous activity does get any effect. How can I animate both activity without finishing the previous one?

You should use Handler in this case!
Put time on Handler on First Activity. During this time animate your first activity. After this step handler give the control to your second activity and then you start animation on second activity

I think that your animations might be the problem. I have the same effect using the following animation files:
slide_in_right.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false">
<translate
android:duration="#android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime"
android:fromXDelta="100%"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="0%"
android:toYDelta="0%" />
</set>
slide_out_left.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false">
<translate
android:duration="#android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="-100%"
android:toYDelta="0%" />
</set>

Fade slide animation when using intent for bottom navigation bar

I have a navigation bar at the bottom with icons. When I click on an icon a new activity starts with intent.
context.startActivity(intent1.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP));
Like this.
If I test it on my Android Pixel emulator the animation is always from bottom to top when a new activity starts.
If I test it on my physical android device (Android 7.1) the animation is always from right to left when a new activity starts. When I close an activity the animation goes from left to right away.
I want always this slide animation (like on my physical device). What do I have to do?
I added
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_in, R.anim.slide_out);
In the onCreate() of the activites, so I have the slide when the activity starts, but no slide animation when the activity close.
Thanks for your help
you'll need 2 new animation files in your anim folder and some code in the Activity which you want to close with the animation, add changes to onBackPressed method
First the animation files: left_to_right.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false">
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="-100%"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="0%"
android:toYDelta="0%" />
</set>
right_to_left.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false">
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="100%"
android:toYDelta="0%" />
</set>
And in Activity do the following:
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
super.onBackPressed();
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.left_to_right, R.anim.right_to_left);
}
PS Also be aware that even if your code is okay, your phone might have animation turned off

Activity Transition sliding in/out animation

I know that are some example over the internet and also here on Stackoverflow I found many examples but belive it or not, none of them supply me needs. Even I have asked a similar question few time ago and I have stuck again into this problem. Basically is the same question but in the opposite direction. I can do whatever animation I want with Activity B but the problem here is Activity A which I could animate just in few scenarios. Basically ActivityA play enter_left only in this combination:
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.enter_from_right, R.anim.exit_on_left);
What I want to do is to animate(move) just the Activity A either on startActivity() and onBackPressed() while Activity B stay unmoved on the screen. Activity A swould allways be drawn on top(as a sliding menu, I could do this with Activity B).
I really thought that the above snippet will do the work:
Intent intent = new Intent(ActivityA.this, ActivityB.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, 500);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.stay_still, R.anim.exit_on_left);
but this does not even play any animation, while
//this is the animation for onBackPressed()
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.enter_from_left, 0);
}
animates Activity A as I want but Activity B suddenly disappears from screen and I want to stay (setting (R.anim.enter_from_left, R.anim.stay_still) does nothing).
I have prepared all 5 necessary animations:
enter_from_left
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="-100%"
android:toXDelta="0%" />
</set>
exit_on_left
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="-100%" />
</set>
enter_from_right
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="100%"
android:toXDelta="0%" />
</set>
exit_on_right
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="100%" />
</set>
stay_still
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shareInterpolator="false" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="0%" />
</set>
I have tried a lot of combinations but non of them worked. Could you please tell me if is this animation possible and if can it be done in this way?
I will post an image, to be more clear what I want to do:
So, first step: on startActivity(), ActivityA should leave the screen from the left side and while moving, the Activity B shoull allready "be there", "below it".
Then, onBackPressed() Acyivity B should "come back", entering from the left side of the screen and overlapping the ActivityB that stay unmoved.
Not sure if you tried this combination, but should work.-
startActivityForResult(intent, 500);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.enter_from_left, R.anim.stay_still);
I could find that the next one works very nice with fragments fragmentTransaction.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.stay_still,R.anim.exit_on_left);
while overridePendingTransition(R.anim.stay_still, R.anim.exit_on_left); does not work with activity.
On the other hand the reverse,
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.enter_from_left, 0); or
fragmentTransaction.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.enter_from_left, 0);
does not work with activity neither with fragments. The most close approach that works was
transaction.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.stay_still,R.anim.exit_on_left, R.anim.enter_from_left,R.anim.exit_on_right);
If anyone has any other solution, I'm still waiting to hear it and it will be appreciated.
5 years later but there exists a solution for this.
These two functions needs be implemented in the activity which will override the default transition.
#Override
public void startActivity(Intent intent) {
super.startActivity(intent);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.from_right_in, R.anim.from_left_out);
}
#Override
public void startActivityForResult(Intent intent, int requestCode) {
super.startActivityForResult(intent, requestCode);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.from_right_in, R.anim.from_left_out);
}
from_right_in.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromXDelta="100%p" android:toXDelta="0" android:interpolator="#android:interpolator/accelerate_decelerate" android:duration="300"/>
<alpha android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0" android:duration="300" />
</set>
from_left_out.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromXDelta="0" android:toXDelta="-100%p" android:duration="300"/>
<alpha android:fromAlpha="1.0" android:toAlpha="0.0" android:duration="300" />
</set>
Try this
Add animations for activity transition in/out, in intent call like
startActivity(new Intent(this,toActivity));
overridePendingTransition( R.anim.slide_in, R.anim.slide_out);
Here is animations file, add this in anim folder
slide_in.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<translate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:fromYDelta="100%p" android:toYDelta="0%p"
android:duration="300"/>
slide_out.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<translate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="#android:integer/config_longAnimTime"
android:fromYDelta="0%p"
android:toYDelta="100%p" />
Thanks
I don't know if i really understand what you want, but if you want to create a sliding Menu, you could use this tutorial to implement it, it works just fine - It's an alternative to resolve your problem -:
http://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/nav-drawer.html
But your have to use FragmentActivity instead of Activity. If you want an example, just ask for it and i will post it. Good luck.

Slide up activity

I have an activity and another activity.
I want my first activity to end when I slide up the screen. The animation should be like the activity is sliding up too. Like the notification screen.
Is that possible? I have done many Google searches before posting this question, but could not get anything.
P.S - I don't want this to be seen as a casual question since there is no code shown. I just need some point to start and I am completely baffled.
make an anim folder in res->
Make an xml file in anim folder slide_up_info.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromYDelta="100%p"
android:toYDelta="0" />
</set>
slide_down_info.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromYDelta="0%p"
android:interpolator="#android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
android:toYDelta="100%p" />
</set>
no_change.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromYDelta="0%p" android:toYDelta="0" android:duration="500"/>
</set>
Now when you want to activity up then write below code
Intent intent_info = new Intent(MainActivity.this,ToActivity.class);
startActivity(intent_info);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_up_info,R.anim.no_change);
For down Activity animation
Intent intent_home=new Intent(getApplicationContext(), MainActivity.class);
startActivity(intent_home);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.no_change,R.anim.slide_down_info);
Animations can be introduced to Activity Launch using OverridePendingTransition. Take a look at this example where they have showed a sample code. Animation between activities
To end an activity, you can call finish() on the first activity.
The know about the slideup, you can check onFling from GestureDetector or onTouch from OnTouchListener
You can also do it this way : in your animation, override the onAnimationEnd method, and use startActivity in it to launch your new activity after the end of the animation

Android Activity Transition Animation

What I am trying to achieve is : start a new activity with a transition animation for the exiting activity only.
I would like to slide up the current activity, where the new activity will be behind the current one.
Here is the slide up animation : R.layout.slide_up
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate
android:duration="1000"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toYDelta="100%" />
</set>
Here is how I am applying the activity animation transition :
overridePendingTransition ( 0 , R.anim.slide_up );
I am using 0 for the entering activity since I do not want any animation for the new activity, and it is not working (the animation is not performed). If I use an animation for entering activity too, it works (both animations are performed), like such :
overridePendingTransition ( R.anim.slide_out , R.anim.slide_up );
where R.anim.slide_out :
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate
android:duration="1000"
android:fromYDelta="100%"
android:toYDelta="0%" />
</set>
Any ideas ?
I am working on Android 4.1.2 and Android 4.0.4
Alter your exit animation so that it renders over top of the entering activity.
R.anim.slide_up
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:zAdjustment="top">
<translate
android:duration="1000"
android:fromYDelta="0%"
android:toYDelta="100%" />
</set>
Then you can do what you were originally doing to set the animation.
overridePendingTransition ( 0 , R.anim.slide_up );
I have exactly the same transition and such animation works for me:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<translate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator="#android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
android:fromYDelta="0%" android:toYDelta="100%" android:zAdjustment="top"
android:duration="300" />
Call the below method after startActivity method.
overridePendingTransition(0,0);
This will override the default animation and do no animation. You can also give some custom animation if you like
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.animation1,R.anim.animation2);
Wherever you are calling the intent to start the Activity, you need to modify the intent.
ActivityOptions options =
ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(AlbumListActivity.this);
startActivity(intent, options.toBundle());
If you have any dedicated method to setupTransitions() You can put the next two lines of code there, Else you may put them in onCreate()
getWindow().setEnterTransition(new Slide(Gravity.RIGHT).setDuration(800));
Gravity.RIGHT is what determines the direction from which you want to start your next Activity. setDuration() method is optional, for smoother Transition I used it, You don't have to.
Explore more by playing around with different Gravity and setDuration Properties.

Animate the activity entry

I need to start an activity in an animated way..can anyone help me?
Creating an intent and starting an activity in normal way will show new activity.I need to start it from one side,say left side..how to animate it near creating intent..
Use the following:
this.overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slidein_left, R.anim.slideout_right);
Where R.anim.* are Animation XML files in your /res/anim/ folder.
The following is an example of my slidein_left:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="-100%"
android:toXDelta="0%" />
</set>
And slideout_right:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<translate
android:duration="500"
android:fromXDelta="0%"
android:toXDelta="100%" />
</set>
What this will do is slide both activities to the left, making the new activity slide in from the left, pushing the old activity out to the right.
Also, as stated by #njzk2, please attempt to make an effort yourself before asking questions, and provide us with things that you may have already tried.
