ImageTransition

... is a small android library to transition between a circular ImageView from one Activity to a rectangular ImageView in the launched Activity.

Gradle dependency

compile 'com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary:imagetransitionlibrary:0.0.1'

Walkthrough

Following gif has been taken from the sample application available here:

The transition has been slowed down for demo purposes.

Components

ImageTransition: Transition based on ChangeBounds that provides animation support between a circular and rectangular ImageView (implemented as TransitionImageView) residing in two different activities. Works on API version >= 21.

TransitionImageView: A modified version of Henning Dodenhof's CircleImageView. Transition animators are run on this widget.

ImageTransitionUtils: Provides SharedElementCallback that is used to set values accessed in ImageTransition.

ImageTransitionCompat: under development Transition based on ChangeBounds that provides animation support between a circular and rectangular ImageView (implemented as TransitionImageView) residing in the same activity or fragment. Requires API version >= 14.

Usage

Use com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary.TransitionImageView in place of ImageView. The rounding value can be set using app:tiv_rounding attribute. Value must be within [0,1] - 0 for no rounding, 1 for perfect rounding. Set android:transitionName attribute.

<com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary.TransitionImageView
  android:id="@+id/image"
  android:layout_width="80dp"
  android:layout_height="80dp"
  android:scaleType="centerCrop"
  android:transitionName="@string/iv_transition_name"
  app:tiv_rounding="0"/>

Note: com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary.TransitionImageView only works with scaleType="centerCrop". This restriction has been inherited from Henning Dodenhof's CircleImageView.

Provide @transition/itl_image_transition as the value for android:windowSharedElementEnterTransition & android:windowSharedElementExitTransition under your Activity theme in styles.xml:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">  <item name="colorPrimary">...</item>
  <item name="colorPrimaryDark">...</item>
  <item name="colorAccent">...</item>

....
  ....

<!-- @transition/itl_image_transition is provided by ImageTransition library -->
  <item name="android:windowSharedElementEnterTransition">@transition/itl_image_transition</item>
  <item name="android:windowSharedElementExitTransition">@transition/itl_image_transition</item> </style>

This should ideally be placed in your values-v21/styles.xml file. Refer to the sample app for an example.

In the second Activity's onCreate(Bundle) method, add the following line of code:

public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

....
  ....

@Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

 ....

....

 // SharedElementCallback needs be set in the second Activity.

// See ImageTrainsitionUtil for more info.

setEnterSharedElementCallback(ImageTransitionUtil.DEFAULT_SHARED_ELEMENT_CALLBACK);

  
}

....
  ....

@Override
  public void onBackPressed() {

supportFinishAfterTransition();

super.onBackPressed();

  
}
 
}

The sample app shows this approach.

Note: ImageTransitionUtil.DEFAULT_SHARED_ELEMENT_CALLBACK can be used only when transitioning from tiv_rounding="1" to tiv_rounding="0". If you're transitioning between any other values, use:

setEnterSharedElementCallback(ImageTransitionUtil
  .prepareSharedElementCallbackFor(_your start rounding value_, _your end rounding value_));

If you'd like to change the duration of the transition, or use the transition within your own set of transitions, or use a different interpolator, include the following:

<transitionSet
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:interpolator="your interpolator">

....
  ....

<transition

class="com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary.ImageTransition"

android:duration="your duration" />

....
  ....  </transitionSet>

The library declares its min SDK version as 14. If your app's minSdkVersion is set to a lower value, include the following in your app's manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
  package="...">

<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="com.appeaser.imagetransitionlibrary"/>

<application ...>

...

...
  </application>  </manifest>

API version requirements

For image transition between activities, version 21 or above is required. Under development For image transition within an activity, use ImageTransitionCompat which works on API 14 and above. Note that ImageTransitionCompat will not work if defined in XML.
