I want this kind of animation for my GridView and its detail page. I need help if anyone aware about this kind of activity transition from one class to another class.

Answer 1

I think You want exactly material activity transaction, read this developer doc here also try this lib for Translation animation https://github.com/lgvalle/Material-Animations

Answer 2

This is your First Activity Code from where you want to move to details screen

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.ActivityOptionsCompat;
import android.support.v4.util.Pair;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;

public class StartActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_start);
    }

    public void onClick(View view) {
        View imageView = findViewById(R.id.imageView);
        View textView = findViewById(R.id.textView);
        View button = findViewById(R.id.button);

        Intent intent = new Intent(this, EndActivity.class);

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            textView.setTransitionName(getString(R.string.activity_text_trans));
            button.setTransitionName(getString(R.string.activity_mixed_trans));

            Pair<View, String> pair1 = Pair.create(imageView, imageView.getTransitionName());
            Pair<View, String> pair2 = Pair.create(textView, textView.getTransitionName());
            Pair<View, String> pair3 = Pair.create(button, button.getTransitionName());
            ActivityOptionsCompat options = ActivityOptionsCompat.
                    makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, pair1, pair2, pair3);
            startActivity(intent, options.toBundle());
        }
        else {
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    }
}

This is the details screen activity

import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.view.View;

public class EndActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_end);

        View smallImageView = findViewById(R.id.textView);
        View editText = findViewById(R.id.editText);
        if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
            smallImageView.setTransitionName(getString(R.string.activity_text_trans));
            editText.setTransitionName(getString(R.string.activity_mixed_trans));
        }
    }

}
