Transitions

Flint provides various transition options to smoothly change the appearance or state of elements within the interface. While animations involve dynamic movement over time, transitions focus on the visual changes that occur during these movements. Here’s a brief description of the types of transitions supported in Flint:

Alpha Value

Alpha transition controls the transparency level of the widget. Transitioning the alpha value smoothly changes how opaque or transparent the widget appears.

X and Y Position

X and Y position transitions involve smoothly moving a widget horizontally (X-axis) and vertically (Y-axis) across the screen or view. It allows widgets to transition from one position to another, creating fluid movements within the interface.

Width

Width transition adjusts the horizontal size of the widget smoothly. It can be used to expand or contract the width of the widget, enabling dynamic resizing effects.

Height

Height transition alters the vertical size of a widget smoothly. It facilitates changes in the height of the widget, allowing for seamless resizing effects.

Visibility

Visibility transition controls whether an element is visible or hidden in the interface. Smoothly transitioning visibility can make widgets appear or disappear gradually, enhancing the user experience.

Data Value

Data value transition involves smoothly changing the data associated with the widget. It allows for dynamic updates of content or information displayed within a widget.

Generate Event

The Generate Event transition triggers custom events to indicate specific actions or events to occur.

Scale X and Y

Scale X and Y transition adjusts the horizontal (X-axis) and vertical (Y-axis) scaling of the widget smoothly. It can be used to resize widgets proportionally along both axes, creating zoom-in or zoom-out effects.
