Glide: Placeholder not removed when crossfade transition is used

[svenjacobs]

Glide Version: 4.0

Device/Android Version: Google Nexus 5X / Android 8.0

Issue details / Repro steps / Use case background:

The following code

Glide.with(this)
        .load("http://www.fnordware.com/superpng/pngtest8rgba.png")
        .apply(RequestOptions.placeholderOf(R.drawable.placeholder))
        .transition(DrawableTransitionOptions.withCrossFade())
        .into(imageView)

will draw the loaded image over the placeholder image on first load (empty cache). The placeholder image can still be seen below. This only happens when the crossfade transition is used.

See the demo application showcasing this issue. When pressing the "Load image" button for a second time the placeholder image is gone.

This happens whether or not the ImageView has the placeholder image defined in the layout via android:src.

Thanks for pointing me to the appropriate documentation. This behavior is different than in Glide 3.x so maybe it should be mentioned in the migration guide? 😉
