Android Fragment - move from one View to another?

Can i first add a Fragment to a View, then "detach" it, and then "re-attach" it to another View?

In code, i want to:

fragOne one = new fragOne();
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
        .add(R.id.left, one, "tag").commit();

getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
        .detach(one).commit();      // or .remove(), or .addToBackStack(null).remove()

getSupportFragmentManager().executePendingTransactions();

getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
        .add(R.id.right, one).commit();

But it throws error:

04-05 13:28:03.492: E/AndroidRuntime(7195): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.trybackstack/com.example.trybackstack.MainActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't change container ID of fragment fragOne{40523130 #0 id=0x7f080000 tag}: was 2131230720 now 2131230721

Thanks for help!

How do I switch fragments?

Use replace() to replace an existing fragment in a container with an instance of a new fragment class that you provide. Calling replace() is equivalent to calling remove() with a fragment in a container and adding a new fragment to that same container. transaction. commit();

I had the same problem but I found that what I really needed was to reparent the fragment's view and not the fragment itself, thus avoiding any fragmentManager transaction.

View vv = fragment.getView();
ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup)vv.getParent();
parent.removeView(vv);
newparent.addView(vv, layoutParams);

after trying all the answers from similar questions, looks like i've found a way to do the trick.

First issue - you really have to commit and execute remove transaction before trying to add fragment to another container. Thanks for that goes to nave's answer

But this doesn't work every time. The second issue is a back stack. It somehow blocks the transaction.

So the complete code, that works for me looks like:

manager.popBackStackImmediate(null, manager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
manager.beginTransaction().remove(detailFragment).commit();
manager.executePendingTransactions();
manager.beginTransaction()
    .replace(R.id.content, masterFragment, masterTag)
    .add(R.id.detail, detailFragment, activeTag)
    .commit();

I guess you would have this figured out by now, but i dont't see any satisfactory answer. So, I'm posting this for others who may refer to this in the future.

If you want to move a fragment from one view to another you do the following:

android.app.FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.remove(fragment1);
fragmentTransaction.commit();
fragmentManager.executePendingTransactions();
fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.containerToMoveTo, fragment1);
fragmentTransaction.commit();

This way you do not have to duplicate the fragment.
