Animation Client Reference

Animation is an abstract base class used as a starting point for all the other animations. It provides the basic mechanics for the animation (playing, pausing, stopping, timing, etc.) and leaves the actual animation to be done in the abstract methods getAnimatedValue and setValue.

Animation Client Properties

Name	Description
duration	Length of the animation in seconds. The default is 1.
events	The collection of event handlers for this behavior. This property should only be used by derived behaviors and should not be publicly called by other code.
fps	Number of steps per second. The default is 25.
id
isActive	true if animation is active, false if not.
isInitialized
isPlaying	true if animation is playing, false if not.
isUpdating
percentComplete	Percentage of the animation already played.
target

Animation Client Methods

Name	Description
beginUpdate
dispose	Dispose the animation
endUpdate
getAnimatedValue	Determine the state of the animation after the given percentage of its duration has elapsed
initialize
interpolate	The `interpolate` function is used to find the appropriate value between starting and ending values given the current percentage.
onEnd	The `onEnd` method is called just after the animation is played each time.
onStart	The `onStart` method is called just before the animation is played each time.
onStep	The `onStep` method is called repeatedly to progress the animation through each frame
pause	Pause the animation if it is playing. Calling `play` will resume where the animation left off.
play	Play the animation from the beginning or where it was left off when paused.
play	Create an animation, play it immediately, and dispose it when finished.
