Android - Pop two or more fragments but don't the top

Question

I have the following scenario:

A(Bottom) -> B -> C -> D(Top) -back-> A
A(Bottom) -> B -> C -back-> B -back-> A

Once I'm on the top (D fragment) I want to pop B and C fragment. On this way when I press back from D I can to A.

I want to avoid the transitions on B and C when I back from D. A(Bottom) -> B -> C -> D(Top) -back-> C -back-> B -back-> A

It is even posible?

Do you want to go back from C to B if the user presses "Back" at C? — DeeV, Jun 22 '16 at 16:31

If I understand your situation correctly, then when creating fragment D right before that you can try getFragmentManager().popBackStack() which will look at your fragment stack and simply pop the last fragment. For this to work, you need to ensure that B and C are on the backstack so when creating those fragments you will need to call addToBackStack(null). Now, when creating fragment D you can just popBackStack() twice and that will bring you back to A. I hope I am understanding your situation correctly.

But the thing is I don't want a see the transition D->C->B->A, I want to see D->A — Ricardo, Jun 24 '16 at 10:56
