Method Detail

• copy

  public Transition copy(boolean reverse)

  Create a copy of the transition, usually the transition used is a copy.

  Overrides:

  copy in class Transition

  Parameters:

  reverse - creates a new transition instance with "reverse" behavior useful for signifying "back" operations

  Returns:

  new transition instance

• create

  public static MorphTransition create(int duration)

  Creates a transition with the given duration, this transition should be modified with the builder methods such as morph

  Parameters:

  duration - the duration of the transition

  Returns:

  a new Morph transition instance

• morph

  public MorphTransition morph(String cmp)

  Morphs the component with the given source name in the source container hierarchy to the component with the same name in the destination hierarchy

  Parameters:

  cmp - the compoennt name

  Returns:

  this so morph operations can be chained as MorphTransition t = MorphTransition.create(300).morph("a").("c");

• morph

  public MorphTransition morph(String source,
                               String to)

  Morphs the component with the given source name in the source container hierarchy to the component with the given name in the destination hierarchy

  Parameters:

  source -

  to -

  Returns:

  this so morph operations can be chained as MorphTransition t = MorphTransition.create(300).morph("a", "b").("c", "d");

• initTransition

  public final void initTransition()

  Callback thats invoked before a transition begins, the source form may be null for the first form in the application.

  Overrides:

  initTransition in class Transition

• animate

  public boolean animate()

  Allows the animation to reduce "repaint" calls when it returns false. It is called once for every frame. Frames are defined by the Display class.

  Specified by:

  animate in interface Animation

  Specified by:

  animate in class Transition

  Returns:

  true if a repaint is desired or false if no repaint is necessary

• paint

  public void paint(Graphics g)

  Draws the animation, within a component the standard paint method would be invoked since it bares the exact same signature.

  Specified by:

  paint in interface Animation

  Specified by:

  paint in class Transition

  Parameters:

  g - graphics context
