What are the lay.Animate method options?

[Jorge Ramirez]

What are the options for this method?

I have tried slide from and to left, right, top and bottom. Is there anything else? I would like to have something like fade and grow/shrink too :D

How does the callback option work?

Thanks!

Hello Jorge,

following should be the options for lay.Animate

"Flip",
"ScaleFromTop","ScaleFromBottom", also "ScaleFromRight" and "ScaleFromLeft" should work, but haven't tried these.
"SlideToRight", "SlideFromRight", "SlideToLeft", "SlideFromLeft"

You may define a optional call back function.

layDoc.Animate( "SlideToLeft", "OnDoneAnimate" );

This will be called after the animation is finished, for example to show or hide a specific layout or object.

"Flip" didn't work for me.

Are they somekind of standard Android transitions/animations or are they implemented only for AndroidScript.

Also, the AndroidScript app itself shows some kind of flip animation anf I find it very cool.

Hello Jorge,

a flipping layer is not that easy. Basically you need a framed layout and two layouts that you want to flip.

    //Create layout to allow flipping of list/code.
    layFlip = app.CreateLayout( "Frame", "" );
...
    layEdit = app.CreateLayout( "Linear", "Vertical,FillXY" );
    layEdit.SetVisibility( "Hide" );
    layFlip.AddChild( layEdit );
...
    layLst = app.CreateLayout( "Frame", "FillXY" );
    layFlip.AddChild( layLst );

at the point where you want the animation take place you put

    layFlip.Animate( "Flip", "" );   

This part is taken from the AndroidScript app main routine.

Why are the methods of lay animate not documented, so that people understand?Droisdscript provide a lot without any documentation. That's silly.

Documentation is in progress

Is there something like ScaleFromCenter, ScaleToCenter, ScaleIn, ScaleOut?

I'm trying to emulate the entrance and exit of the dialog control
