I am working on a feature that uses the SharedElement transition. In my application, I use the following flag FLAG_ACTIVITY_REORDER_TO_FRONT to reuse an existing instance of an activity.
Example -: I traverse from Activity A->B->C->D then I want to open Activity B. The resultant stack will be A->C->D->B
Issue -: When using the above mechanism in terms of the shared element transition animation the animation does not seem to work.
It does work when I create a new instance of Activity B, but then there are dual instances of Activity B in the Activity Stack. Which I do not want.
I also require other activity instances that are in the backstack so clearing the stack won't be helpful.
I have visited the following posts related to this issue, none of them seem to have an answer to this issue.
- Shared Element Transition when reopening existing Activity in stack Reorder To Front
- Shared element transitions not working when using FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP
It would be really helpful if anyone could give me directions in going ahead with this issue.
