Transitions Enabled Even When Badge Text Is Empty

[samruddhi-Rahegaonkar]

When the badge text field is empty and the user switches to the Transition tab, transition options are still enabled and selectable.
Since transitions require text to render, enabling them while the badge text is empty leads to inconsistent UX and unnecessary animation triggers.

Hi @samruddhi-Rahegaonkar , I'm Phanindra, preparing for GSOC 2026.

I've analyzed this issue and have a clear solution:

The Problem:
Transitions are enabled even when the badge text field is empty, which creates invalid badge states.

My Proposed Solution:

1. Add a validation check before enabling transitions
2. Ensure badge text is not null/empty before allowing any animation
3. Provide user feedback if text is required

Implementation Plan:

• Modify the animation/transition selection logic to check text state
• Add appropriate error handling/messaging
• Test on Android emulator to verify the fix

I'm ready to work on this immediately and would appreciate being assigned. I have Badge Magic running locally on Android emulator and can start on this right away.

Let me know if you'd like me to proceed!
