FragmentTransactionExtended is a library which provide us a set of custom animations between fragments. FragmentTransaction only accepts some simple animations (TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_CLOSE, TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE, TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN...).

List of animations added:

• SCALEX
• SCALEY
• SCALEXY
• FADE
• FLIP_HORIZONTAL
• FLIP_VERTICAL
• SLIDE_VERTICAL
• SLIDE_HORIZONTAL
• SLIDE_HORIZONTAL_PUSH_TOP
• SLIDE_VERTICAL_PUSH_LEFT
• GLIDE
• SLIDING
• STACK
• CUBE
• ROTATE_DOWN
• ROTATE_UP
• ACCORDION
• TABLE_HORIZONTAL
• TABLE_VERTICAL
• ZOOM_FROM_LEFT_CORNER
• ZOOM_FROM_RIGHT_CORNER
• ZOOM_SLIDE_HORIZONTAL
• ZOOM_SLIDE_VERTICAL

Because FragmentTransaction.setCustomAnimations needs to use ObjectAnimator in XML and the animations of this library needs some fractional values is necesary to extends the fragment container from SlidingRelativeLayout, this class contains the necessary getters and setters.

<com.desarrollodroide.libraryfragmenttransitionextended.SlidingRelativeLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
</com.desarrollodroide.libraryfragmenttransitionextended.SlidingRelativeLayout>

The container of the fragments must extends from SlidingRelativeLayout like the example

<com.desarrollodroide.libraryfragmenttransactionextended.SlidingRelativeLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="@drawable/back1" >
    <ListView
            android:id="@android:id/list"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"/>
</com.desarrollodroide.libraryfragmenttransactionextended.SlidingRelativeLayout>

You need to declare in your activity manifest if you need to manage change orientations:

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

Constructor:

FragmentTransactionExtended fragmentTransactionExtended = new FragmentTransactionExtended(context, fragmentTransaction, firstFragment, secondFragment, containerID);

AddTransition:

fragmentTransactionExtended.addTransition(FragmentTransactionExtended.*);

Example:

FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fm.beginTransaction();
FragmentTransactionExtended fragmentTransactionExtended = new FragmentTransactionExtended(this, fragmentTransaction, firstFragment, secondFragment, R.id.fragment_place);
fragmentTransactionExtended.addTransition(FragmentTransactionExtended.GLIDE);
fragmentTransactionExtended.commit();

dependencies {
    compile 'com.desarrollodroide:fragmenttransactionextended:1'
}
