Android Question [Solved] B4XPages root parent color

[rraswisak]

Hi all,

I want to open another page with transition effect from right to left, so i follow erel code in this post;

Custom transitions between B4XPages

I use this code to create an animation transition (left/right or right/left) between activities: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/custom-transitions-between-activities.15065/#content Is possible to make this with B4XPages? If yes, how? Thanks in advance for any tip.

www.b4x.com

The transition work fine, when i change parent color to green it shows correctly

Root.Parent.Color = xui.Color_Green

I don't know if this is bug or not, but when i try to change root parent color with transparent it doesn't work as expected. only white color shown rather than transparent

Root.Parent.Color = xui.Color_Transparent

Any idea how to solve this ?

Thank you

By setting the transparent color, would you like to see... your hand?

Being Root a panel, when you set its color to transparent I think you will see the default color of the activity, due to the theme of the app.

Note that I have no experience with B4XPages yet, as I haven't started any new projects.

you will see the default color of the activity

perhaps, my goal is when new page appear with transition effect by setting transparent color i (thought) can still see page behind it, in this case login page.

and yes this is my first shoot converting my unfinish app to B4XPages, so im still learning too

Hi. The "problem" with B4XPages is that there is only one visible at a time, which is the one loaded at that moment in the main activity. So you don't have a stack of B4XPages as you open new B4xPages. Moreover, they reuse for example the ActivityBar. Erel himself mentions it in the link you have provided as an example.

thank you for your enlightenment @LucaMs and @Rubsanpe, i will take another approach, there are 1001 ways to Rome (proverb)

Yeah, when you know how it works, the solution just so simple...

I capture (snapshot) login page and pass the bitmap to target pages as a background.

Make transition effect with B4XPages is more handy rather than activity it self.
