SequenceAnimation Reference

SequenceAnimation Client Reference

The SequenceAnimation runs several animations one after the other. It can also repeat the sequence of animations for a specified number of iterations (which defaults to a single iteration, but will repeat forever if you specify zero or less iterations). Also, the SequenceAnimation cannot be a child of a (or any animation inheriting from it).

SequenceAnimation 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.
isInfinite	true if this animation will repeat forever, false otherwise.
isInitialized
isPlaying	true if animation is playing, false if not.
isUpdating
iterations	Number of times to repeatedly play the sequence. If zero or less iterations are specified, the sequence will repeat forever. The default value is 1 iteration.
percentComplete	Percentage of the animation already played.
target

SequenceAnimation Client Methods

Name	Description
add	Add an animation as a child of this animation.
beginUpdate
clear	Clear the array of child animations.
dispose	Dispose the animation
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	Raises an invalid operation exception because this will only be called if a SequenceAnimation has been nested inside an (or a derived type).
pause	Pause the animation if it is playing. Calling play will resume where the animation left off.
play	Play the sequence of animations 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 entire sequence of animations
updated
