I am creating animation in splashScreen with motionLayout. But my animation doesn't work, instead it immediatly shows the ending positions of the elements on the screen. Here is my code:

SplashActivity:

class SplashActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash)

    motionLayout.transitionToEnd()

    val handler = Handler()
    handler.postDelayed( {
        startActivity(Intent(this, MainActivity::class.java))
        finish()
    }, 3000)
}
}

activity_splash layout :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Does anyone has an idea why is this happening?

You can simply add in <Transition

motion:autoTransition="animateToEnd"

Then no need to call transitionToEnd.

Alternatively You can call transtionToEnd

     onAttachedToWindow() {
        super.onAttachedToWindow()
        motionlayout.transitionToEnd()

  • neither of this doesn't help. My animation stil doesn't happen... – Kratos Mar 25 '21 at 11:13
  • Pardon me. motion:autoTransition="animateToEnd" solves the problem. Thank you very much, I will upvote and accept your answer. If you have any idea why my approach doesn't work, but this way by adding in xml it works please explain me, because I don't have any logical explanation. – Kratos Mar 25 '21 at 13:09
  • The scene is only setup in onAttachedToWindow so transitionToEnd is meaningless in on create. – hoford Apr 04 '21 at 00:04
