Methods #
| Definition | Description |
|---|---|
| AddKeyframe(Name as String, waitTime as Integer = 0) as GraffitiAnimatorControl | Adds a new keyframe. |
| AddKeyframe(newKeyframe as GraffitiAnimatorKeyframe) as GraffitiAnimatorControl | |
| AddKeyframe(waitTime as Integer = 0) as GraffitiAnimatorControl | |
| AddOperation(animOp as GraffitiAnimatorOperation) as GraffitiAnimatorControl | Adds a new animation operation to the stack. |
| Constructor(Target as DesktopWindow) | Instantiates a new instance of the class. |
| Move(newLeft as Double, newTop as Double, animationLength as Integer, easing as GraffitiAnimator.Easings) as GraffitiAnimatorControl | Moves the control to the specified position. |
| OnComplete(finishFunction as AnimationComplete) | Invokes the provided delegate when all animation has completed. |
| OnKeyframe(keyframeFunction as AtKeyframe) | Invokes the provided delegate when the animation encounters a keyframe. |
| OnProgress(changeFunction as AnimationProgress) | Invokes the provided delegate as animation operations progress. |
| Play(DestroyWhenComplete as Boolean = True) | Plays the provided animation stack, optionally destructs itself when complete. |
| Resize(newWidth as Double, newHeight as Double, animationLength as Integer, easing as GraffitiAnimator.Easings) | Resizes the target using the specified values. |
| Shake(numberOfShakes as Integer = 5, deltaX as Integer = 5, deltaY as Integer = 0, animationLength as Integer = 800) | Causes the target to shake violently along the X-axis. |
| Stop() as GraffitiAnimatorControl | Cancels all running animations and immediately applies the requested end values for those operations. |
Properties #
| Name | Type | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| State | GraffitiAnimator.States | Idle | The current running state of the animator. |
| Target | DesktopWindow | Nil | The window to be animated. |
Examples #
Chaining #
This class was developed to make animation chaining simple for enthralling UI animations. Below is an example directly from the demo project that demonstrates how this is done. Me is a PushButton:
'// This is meant to show you how to use animation
' chaining with a dynamically created object.
' It makes use of Delegates for callbacks when
' keyframes are reached or when the animation
' chain is complete. Play() should always be the
' the last command.
