PathMotion


public abstract class PathMotion
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.transition.PathMotion


This base class can be extended to provide motion along a Path to Transitions.

Transitions such as ChangeBounds move Views, typically in a straight path between the start and end positions. Applications that desire to have these motions move in a curve can change how Views interpolate in two dimensions by extending PathMotion and implementing getPath(float, float, float, float).

This may be used in XML as an element inside a transition.

 <changeBounds>
     <pathMotion class="my.app.transition.MyPathMotion"/>
 </changeBounds>

getPath

Added in API level 21
public abstract Path getPath (float startX, 
                float startY, 
                float endX, 
                float endY)

Provide a Path to interpolate between two points (startX, startY) and (endX, endY). This allows controlled curved motion along two dimensions.

Parameters
startX float: The x coordinate of the starting point.

startY float: The y coordinate of the starting point.

endX float: The x coordinate of the ending point.

endY float: The y coordinate of the ending point.

Returns
Path A Path along which the points should be interpolated. The returned Path must start at point (startX, startY), typically using Path.moveTo(float, float) and end at (endX, endY).
