AnimationExtender Server Reference

Extender used to play animations when a control's events fire

AnimationExtender Server Properties

Name	Description
OnClick	OnClick Animation
OnHoverOut	OnHoverOut Animation
OnHoverOver	OnHoverOver Animation
OnLoad	OnLoad Animation
OnMouseOut	OnMouseOut Animation
OnMouseOver	OnMouseOver Animation

AnimationExtender Server Methods

Name	Description
OnPreRender(System.EventArgs)	Change any AnimationTarget references from server control IDs into the ClientIDs that the animation scripts are expecting.

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.
raiseEnded	Raise the ended event
raisePropertyChanged	Raises a change notification event.
raiseStarted	Raise the started event
raiseStep	Raise the step event
setOwner	Make this animation the child of another animation
setValue	Set the current state of the animation
stop	Stop playing the animation.

Animation Client Events

Name	Description
disposing
ended	Adds an event handler for the ended event.
propertyChanged
started	Adds an event handler for the started event.
step	Adds an event handler for the step event.

ParentAnimation Client Reference

The ParentAnimation serves as a base class for all animations that contain children (such as , , etc.). It does not actually play the animations, so any classes that inherit from it must do so. Any animation that requires nested child animations must inherit from this class, although it will likely want to inherit off of or which will actually play their child animations.

ParentAnimation Client Properties

Name	Description
animations	Array of child animations to be played (there are no assumptions placed on order because it will matter for some derived animations like , but not for others like ). To manipulate the child animations, use the functions add, clear, remove, and removeAt.
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

ParentAnimation Client Methods

Name	Description
add	Add an animation as a child of this animation.
beginUpdate
clear	Clear the array of child animations.
dispose	Dispose of the child animations
endUpdate
getAnimatedValue	Determine the state of the animation after the given percentage of its duration has elapsed
initialize	Initialize the parent along with any child animations that have not yet been initialized themselves
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.
raiseEnded	Raise the ended event
raisePropertyChanged	Raises a change notification event.
raiseStarted	Raise the started event
raiseStep	Raise the step event
remove	Remove the animation from the array of child animations.
removeAt	Remove the animation at a given index from the array of child animations.
setOwner	Make this animation the child of another animation
setValue	Set the current state of the animation
stop	Stop playing the animation.
