  • LAYOUT ANIMATION PANEL
    Publication number: 20150339841
    Abstract: Layout animation that automatically plays in response to a change in layout on UI platforms that typically require animations to be defined prior to the layout being calculated is provided. Developers are enabled to specify how one or more elements should animate via animation values that are relative to an unknown initial layout and an unknown final layout. When a property change event that triggers animation of an element occurs, the initial layout and the final layout of the element and its child elements are calculated. The animations are then scheduled to interpolate the changes in layout.
