Title: Scale Animation issue
Post by: kent79 on October 17, 2017, 05:09:18 PM

Dear All,

I have some trouble on adding as below animation. Please see the video of issue. I don't why the snap video is becoming smaller while switching faster. Please help me. Thanks. 


animation.add( PropertyAnimation( snap_t,         {property = "scale", start = 0, end = 1, time = 200}));

This worked for me:

Code: [Select]

//Background
local bg = fe.add_image("bg_base.png", 0, 0, flw, flh);

local bg_shrink_cfg = {
    when = When.StartLayout,
    when = Transition.ToNewList,
    property = "scale",
    start = 1.4,
    end = 1.0,
    time = 1000
    tween = Tween.Quad,
}

animation.add( PropertyAnimation( bg, bg_shrink_cfg ) );
Maybe cant be "0" , try "-0.001" to "1.0"

hey kent!

i also tried something with Timing Animation and had absolutely no Chance to fix the Situation you also seem to discovered:

in your Video:
Holding down a key for longer to go through games fast will fail animations or even conditions in tick callback. My variables should Change on tickcallback but do not if i hold a key to scroll through games and release it afterwards.
i didnt know a solution and tried VERY Long. no Chance.

Hey kent,

Yes, that is an  unfortunate bug. It looks like it's getting incorrect position information when the new animation starts before the previous finishes. The way I implemented scaling was kinda hacky - so it was bound to show some issues. It may be possible to update some of the animations values when a new one starts to correct it, but I'd have to dig deeper with the code.
