i have added the mTransitionManager = new Transition in the onButtonClicked(Veiw)
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
protected TransitionManager mTransitionManager;
protected Scene mScene1;
protected Scene mScene2;

protected TransitionSet mForwardSet;
protected TransitionSet mBackwardSet;
// Some code omitted for brevity
public void onButtonClicked(View view) {
mTransitionManager = new TransitionManager();
if (mCurrentScene == mScene2) {
mCurrentScene = mScene1;
}
else {
mCurrentScene = mScene2;
mTransitionManager.transitionTo(mCurrentScene);
}
}
protected void setupTransitions() {
// These methods are setting up scenes and transitions sets like in the video
initScenes();
initSets();
// Start here!
mTransitionManager = new TransitionManager();
mTransitionManager.setTransition(mScene1, mScene2, mForwardSet);
mTransitionManager.setTransition(mScene2, mScene1, mBackwardSet);
mScene1.enter();
}

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Melody Mudehwe ! I received your request for assistance, and from my perspective, it looks like you're doing terrific! The problem here is placement.
This is the line that makes the scene transition when the button is clicked:
mTransitionManager.transitionTo(mCurrentScene);
But you've placed it inside your else statement which means it will only ever run if the current scene is scene1. Moving it outside your else statement causes this to pass. It will always run regardless of what the scene is when it is clicked.
Hope this helps!

3,282 PointsThank you for your help. I have placed the mTransitionManager.transitionTo(mCurrentScene) outside the else statement. but it's still not working it is now showing an error on the mTransitionManager = newTransitionManager(); in the onButtonClicked(View, view). look at the above code if its correct where i insert it.
Its question 4/4

Treehouse TeacherMelody Mudehwe my passing code is almost identical to yours besides the placement of that one line. I would need to see your whole code as it appears now to have an idea what the problem is. It could be that you accidentally deleted a curly brace or a parenthesis or something. Here was my passing code for step 4/4 for that function:
If this still doesn't work, it could potentially be a caching issue. You might try restarting the challenge from the beginning and copying the code in from step 1.
Hope this helps!
