Slide transition with API 10

Question

I want to make a screen slide to switch between two Activities (I'm not looking for a swipe effect, just the slide transition that is available for viewPagers).

Any suggestions or links on how this can be done with the API 10?

Answer 1

Here's a fully working example.

Preview what it looks like here: Preview

activity_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/main_viewpager"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

</android.support.v4.view.ViewPager>

fragment_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <TextView
        android:textSize="26sp"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/lorem_ipsum" />

</ScrollView>

My only class

public class ActivityMain extends FragmentActivity {

    private ViewPager mViewPager;

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

        mViewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.main_viewpager);
        MyPagerAdapter pagerAdapter = new MyPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());

        mViewPager.setAdapter(pagerAdapter);
    }

    public static class MyPagerAdapter extends FragmentStatePagerAdapter {

        public MyPagerAdapter(FragmentManager fragmentManager) {
            super(fragmentManager);
        }

        private static final int NUM_PAGES = 5;

        @Override
        public Fragment getItem(int position) {
            return new FragmentExample();
        }

        @Override
        public int getCount() {
            return NUM_PAGES;
        }
    }

    public static class FragmentExample extends Fragment {
        @Override
        public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, null, false);
        }
    }
}

And just for good measure, here is my manifest, note that the minimum sdk supported is 4

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.screenslidingpager"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="4"
        android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.screenslidingpager.ActivityMain"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Light" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>
