The definition Effects::Timing determines the available timing functions for animation effects. Except the 'Custom' item, all items of this definition represent build-in timing functions. These can be simply selected in the effect property Timing.

The definition Effects::DialogAlignment determines the set of constraints to control how dialog components are aligned within the boundary area of their owners when the dialogs are presented. See also Effects::FadeInOutTransition, Effects::ScaleTransition, Effects::ShowHideTransition and Effects::SlideTransition.

autoobject Effects::FadeInOutTransition FadeInOutCentered;

The global autoobject Effects::FadeInOutCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the opacity of a given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component is automatically arranged to appear centered within the area of its owner component. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should smoothly appear or disappear in context of another component. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms.

This object exists for your convenience permitting you to simply refer the transition wherever it is required in your implementation without having to take care of the creation and configuration of the object. If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. other timing parameters), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::ScaleTransition ScaleCentered;

The global autoobject Effects::ScaleCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the size and the opacity of a given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component appears slightly downsized in the center of its owner component and continues changing its size until it reaches its original size again. When using the transition for the fade-out operation, the component shrinks. While the transitions are performed, the opacity of the GUI component fades-in or fades-out accordingly. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should appear or disappear within another component by smoothly changing its size. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms and the timing is configured to start fast and then slow down the animation (FastIn_EaseOut). The scaling factor is configured with 50 %.

This object exists for your convenience permitting you to simply refer the transition wherever it is required in your implementation without having to take care of the creation and configuration of the object. If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. other scaling factor or timing parameters), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::ShowHideTransition ShowHideCentered;

The global autoobject Effects::ShowHideCentered represents the most primitive fade-in/out operation affecting the pure visibility of a given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component is automatically arranged to appear centered within the area of its owner component. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should instantly appear or disappear in context of another component without any animation effects.

Please note, with this transition the fade-in operation is performed just at the beginning of all other transitions running simultaneously, in other words, the GUI component appears during the start phase of the transition. In turn, to fade-out the component, the operation is executed during the end phase of the transition.

This object exists for your convenience permitting you to simply refer the transition wherever it is required in your implementation without having to take care of the creation and configuration of the object. If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. to show the GUI component at the end instead of the start phase), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::SlideTransition SlideDownCentered
{
preset Direction = Core::Direction.Bottom;
}

The global autoobject Effects::SlideDownCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the position and the opacity of the given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component slides from the top edge of its owner component and continues moving vertically until it reaches the owner's center position. When using the transition for the fade-out operation, the component slides down until it leaves the visible area of its owner component. Additionally, while the transitions are performed, the opacity of the GUI component fades-in or fades-out accordingly. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should smoothly slide-in/out in context of another component. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms and the timing is configured to start fast and then slow down the animation (FastIn_EaseOut).

This object exists for your convenience permitting you to simply refer the transition wherever it is required in your implementation without having to take care of the creation and configuration of the object. If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. other timing parameters), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::SlideTransition SlideLeftCentered
{
preset Direction = Core::Direction.Left;
}

The global autoobject Effects::SlideLeftCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the position and the opacity of the given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component slides from the right edge of its owner component and continues moving horizontally until it reaches the owner's center position. When using the transition for the fade-out operation, the component slides to the left until it leaves the visible area of its owner component. Additionally, while the transitions are performed, the opacity of the GUI component fades-in or fades-out accordingly. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should smoothly slide-in/out in context of another component. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms and the timing is configured to start fast and then slow down the animation (FastIn_EaseOut).

This object exists for your convenience permitting you to simply refer the transition wherever it is required in your implementation without having to take care of the creation and configuration of the object. If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. other timing parameters), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::SlideTransition SlideRightCentered
{
preset Direction = Core::Direction.Right;
}

The global autoobject Effects::SlideRightCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the position and the opacity of the given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component slides from the left edge of its owner component and continues moving horizontally until it reaches the owner's center position. When using the transition for the fade-out operation, the component slides to the right until it leaves the visible area of its owner component. Additionally, while the transitions are performed, the opacity of the GUI component fades-in or fades-out accordingly. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should smoothly slide-in/out in context of another component. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms and the timing is configured to start fast and then slow down the animation (FastIn_EaseOut).

If you require the transition to run with other configuration (e.g. other timing parameters), create a copy of this object and adapt its properties accordingly.

autoobject Effects::SlideTransition SlideUpCentered
{
preset Direction = Core::Direction.Top;
}

The global autoobject Effects::SlideUpCentered represents the fade-in/out operation affecting the position and the opacity of the given GUI component. When using the transition for the fade-in operation, the GUI component slides from the bottom edge of its owner component and continues moving vertically until it reaches the owner's center position. When using the transition for the fade-out operation, the component slides up until it leaves the visible area of its owner component. Additionally, while the transitions are performed, the opacity of the GUI component fades-in or fades-out accordingly. This transition is thus ideal wherever one GUI component should smoothly slide-in/out in context of another component. The duration of the transition is configured per default to take 500 ms and the timing is configured to start fast and then slow down the animation (FastIn_EaseOut).
