I thought the system would reverse animations on the backstack when the back button is pressed when using fragments using the following code:
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
ft.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.slide_in, R.anim.hyperspace_out);
ft.replace(R.id.viewContainer, new class(), "layout").addToBackStack(null).commit();
According to the android documentation for custom animation:
Change:
ft.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.slide_in, R.anim.hyperspace_out);
To:
ft.setCustomAnimations(R.anim.slide_in, R.anim.hyperspace_out, R.anim.hyperspace_in, R.anim.slide_out );
and now the backstack animates - In reverse!!
Use the Correct animation
I have used the following and its working like a charm
slide_in_left.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" >
<objectAnimator
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="500"
android:propertyName="x"
android:valueFrom="1000"
android:valueTo="0"
android:valueType="floatType" />
</set>
slide_in_right.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" >
<objectAnimator
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="500"
android:propertyName="x"
android:valueFrom="0"
android:valueTo="1000"
android:valueType="floatType" />
</set>
slide_out_left.xml
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" >
<objectAnimator
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="500"
android:propertyName="x"
android:valueFrom="0"
android:valueTo="-1000"
android:valueType="floatType" />
</set>
slide_out_right.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" >
<objectAnimator
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:duration="500"
android:propertyName="x"
android:valueFrom="-1000"
android:valueTo="0"
android:valueType="floatType" />
</set>
Then Use following while adding fragment
setCustomAnimations(R.anim.slide_in_left, R.anim.slide_out_left,
R.anim.slide_out_right, R.anim.slide_in_right)
and it will worked 100%
in my case
ft.setCustomAnimations(android.R.anim.slide_in_left, android.R.anim.slide_out_right,
R.anim.slide_in_right, R.anim.slide_out_left);
would create perfect animation.
slide_in_right
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromXDelta="50%p" android:toXDelta="0"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime"/>
<alpha android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" />
</set>
slide_out_left
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromXDelta="0" android:toXDelta="-50%p"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime"/>
<alpha android:fromAlpha="1.0" android:toAlpha="0.0"
android:duration="@android:integer/config_mediumAnimTime" />
</set>
.setCustomAnimations(R.animator.fragment_fade_in,
R.animator.fragment_fade_out,
R.animator.fragment_fade_p_in,
R.animator.fragment_fade_p_out)
Replace the above with:
mFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
.setCustomAnimations(R.animator.fragment_fade_in,
R.animator.fragment_fade_out,
R.animator.fragment_fade_p_in,
R.animator.fragment_fade_p_out)
.replace(R.id.main_container, FragmentPlayerInfo.getInstance(data))
.addToBackStack(FragmentPlayerInfo.TAG)
.commit();
