how to Shared element transition from a fragment to an activity

I think using Pairs as below:

 Pair[] pairs = new Pair[1];
            pairs[0] = new Pair<View, String>(tvArtifacts, "itemTrans");
            ActivityOptions options = null;
            if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) {
                options = ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(getActivity(), pairs);
            }

            Intent i = new Intent(getActivity(), ItemDetailActivity.class);
            i.putExtra("item_name", "item 2");
            if (options != null) {
                startActivity(i, options.toBundle());
            } else {
                startActivity(i);
            }

This worked for me! Thanks..

I had the same problem, I couldn't find anything that helps sorry, but maybe you should reconsider why would you need a Fragment to Activity relation when you could work with a Fragment to Fragment or Activity to Activity relation.

I've solved my problem that way changing my code to a Fragment to Fragment relation and there is plenty documentation and examples about that Shared Element Transitions

Fragment to Activity is the same as Activity to Activity, Because your Fragment is inside an Activity.

I finally found the answer, the startActivity calling method is different. You have to call

startActivityFromFragment(fragment, intent, req_code, options.toBundle());

from the AppCompactActivity
