4
5 A basic app showing how to use the Transition framework introduced in
6 KitKat. The app shows radioboxes to select between different Scenes,
7 and uses various ways to transition between them.

9 Introduction
10 ------------
11
12 A Scene is an encapsulation of the state of a view hierarchy,
13 including the views in that hierarchy and the various values
14 (layout-related and otherwise) that those views have. A scene can be
15 defined by a layout hierarchy directly or by code which sets up the
16 scene dynamically as it is entered.
17
18 A Transition is a mechanism to automatically animate changes that
19 occur when a new scene is entered. Some transition capabilities are
20 automatic. That is, entering a scene may cause animations to run which
21 fade out views that go away, changeBounds and resize existing views
22 that change, and fade in views that become visible. There are
23 additional transitions that can animate other attributes, such as
24 color changes, and which can optionally be specified to take place
25 during particular scene changes. Finally, developers can define their
26 own Transition subclasses which monitor particular property changes
27 and which run custom animations when those properties change values.
28
29 TransitionManager is used to specify custom transitions for particular
30 scene changes, and to cause scene changes with specific transitions to
31 take place.
