Detailed Description

\inmodule QtCore

The QVariantAnimation class provides a base class for animations.

Since
4.6

This class is part of \l{The Animation Framework}. It serves as a base class for property and item animations, with functions for shared functionality.

The class performs interpolation over \l{QVariant}s, but leaves using the interpolated values to its subclasses. Currently, Qt provides QPropertyAnimation, which animates Qt \l{Qt's Property System}{properties}. See the QPropertyAnimation class description if you wish to animate such properties.

You can then set start and end values for the property by calling setStartValue() and setEndValue(), and finally call start() to start the animation. QVariantAnimation will interpolate the property of the target object and emit valueChanged(). To react to a change in the current value you have to reimplement the updateCurrentValue() virtual function or connect to said signal.

It is also possible to set values at specified steps situated between the start and end value. The interpolation will then touch these points at the specified steps. Note that the start and end values are defined as the key values at 0.0 and 1.0.

There are two ways to affect how QVariantAnimation interpolates the values. You can set an easing curve by calling setEasingCurve(), and configure the duration by calling setDuration(). You can change how the \l{QVariant}s are interpolated by creating a subclass of QVariantAnimation, and reimplementing the virtual interpolated() function.

Subclassing QVariantAnimation can be an alternative if you have \l{QVariant}s that you do not wish to declare as Qt properties. Note, however, that you in most cases will be better off declaring your QVariant as a property.

Not all QVariant types are supported. Below is a list of currently supported QVariant types:

\list

If you need to interpolate other variant types, including custom types, you have to implement interpolation for these yourself. To do this, you can register an interpolator function for a given type. This function takes 3 parameters: the start value, the end value, and the current progress.

Example:

Another option is to reimplement interpolated(), which returns interpolation values for the value being interpolated.

\omit We need some snippets around here. \endomit

◆ duration()

int QVariantAnimation::duration ( ) const
overridevirtual

This pure virtual function returns the duration of the animation, and defines for how long QAbstractAnimation should update the current time.

This duration is local, and does not include the loop count.

A return value of -1 indicates that the animation has no defined duration; the animation should run forever until stopped. This is useful for animations that are not time driven, or where you cannot easily predict its duration (e.g., event driven audio playback in a game).

If the animation is a parallel QAnimationGroup, the duration will be the longest duration of all its animations. If the animation is a sequential QAnimationGroup, the duration will be the sum of the duration of all its animations.

◆ interpolated()

QVariant QVariantAnimation::interpolated ( const QVariant & from,
const QVariant & to,
qreal progress ) const
protectedvirtual

This virtual function returns the linear interpolation between variants from and to, at progress, usually a value between 0 and 1.

You can reimplement this function in a subclass of QVariantAnimation to provide your own interpolation algorithm.

Note that in order for the interpolation to work with a QEasingCurve that return a value smaller than 0 or larger than 1 (such as QEasingCurve::InBack) you should make sure that it can extrapolate. If the semantic of the datatype does not allow extrapolation this function should handle that gracefully.

You should call the QVariantAnimation implementation of this function if you want your class to handle the types already supported by Qt (see class QVariantAnimation description for a list of supported types).

Property Documentation

◆ currentValue

QVariantAnimation::currentValue
read

the current value of the animation.

This property describes the current value; an interpolated value between the \l{startValue}{start value} and the \l{endValue}{end value}, using the current time for progress. The value itself is obtained from interpolated(), which is called repeatedly as the animation is running.

QVariantAnimation calls the virtual updateCurrentValue() function when the current value changes. This is particularly useful for subclasses that need to track updates. For example, QPropertyAnimation uses this function to animate Qt \l{Qt's Property System}{properties}.

◆ duration

QVariantAnimation::duration
readwrite

◆ easingCurve

QVariantAnimation::easingCurve
readwrite

the easing curve of the animation

This property defines the easing curve of the animation. By default, a linear easing curve is used, resulting in linear interpolation. Other curves are provided, for instance, QEasingCurve::InCirc, which provides a circular entry curve. Another example is QEasingCurve::InOutElastic, which provides an elastic effect on the values of the interpolated variant.

QVariantAnimation will use the QEasingCurve::valueForProgress() to transform the "normalized progress" (currentTime / totalDuration) of the animation into the effective progress actually used by the animation. It is this effective progress that will be the progress when interpolated() is called. Also, the steps in the keyValues are referring to this effective progress.

The easing curve is used with the interpolator, the interpolated() virtual function, and the animation's duration to control how the current value changes as the animation progresses.
