Fragment shared element transition with add() instead of replace()?

since the system isnt going through the onPause from the first fragment its not going to happen. becuase when you add a new fragment, the new fragment comes on the top of the old fragment.

but you can fake it though you will have more code !

there is a sample below:

and a video not compeletely related but helps you to get the idea:

Try this

getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()                 .addSharedElement(myImage, "mytransition")                 .add(R.id.recycler_view_container, myFragment2)                 .hide(myFragment1)                   commit(); 

worked for me

Try add .detach() method for FragmentTransaction.

    FragmentManager manager = activity.getSupportFragmentManager ();    Fragment currentFragment = manager.findFragmentById (CONTAINER_ID);     int intoContainerId = currentFragment.getId ();    manager.beginTransaction ()            .setTransition (FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_FADE)            .addSharedElement(view, transitionName)            .addToBackStack (withTag)            .detach(currentFragment)            .add(intoContainerId, newFragment, withTag)            .commit();
