Android BasicTransition Sample
-==============================
+===================================
+
+A basic app showing how to use the Transition framework introduced in
+KitKat. The app shows radioboxes to select between different Scenes,
+and uses various ways to transition between them.
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+A Scene is an encapsulation of the state of a view hierarchy,
+including the views in that hierarchy and the various values
+(layout-related and otherwise) that those views have. A scene can be
+defined by a layout hierarchy directly or by code which sets up the
+scene dynamically as it is entered.
-This sample demonstrates the basic use of the transition framework introduced in KitKat.
- Select each of the RadioButtons to switch between the Scenes.
+A Transition is a mechanism to automatically animate changes that
+occur when a new scene is entered. Some transition capabilities are
+automatic. That is, entering a scene may cause animations to run which
+fade out views that go away, changeBounds and resize existing views
+that change, and fade in views that become visible. There are
+additional transitions that can animate other attributes, such as
+color changes, and which can optionally be specified to take place
+during particular scene changes. Finally, developers can define their
+own Transition subclasses which monitor particular property changes
+and which run custom animations when those properties change values.
+
+TransitionManager is used to specify custom transitions for particular
+scene changes, and to cause scene changes with specific transitions to
+take place.
