Is there an estimated release time of your edition, or do you need any
help with testing etc?
Hi list, I'm playing with adding a simple animation api to data structure drawing
commands.The parameters will be sent to the GUI, and the GUI will take
care of the ramp, delay, etc.I'm thinking of just making it a simple "set it and forget it" api.
That is, you send a messagewith your ramp and delay times to the GUI,
and you just blindly trust that the GUI will makethings happen in the
right amount of time. The alternative I can think of is to have the GUI call back when an animation is finished, but that would encourage mixing
the two clocks(i.e., GUI and Pd clock) in unpredictableways.Does this simple approach seem like a reasonable design? The biggest
problem would be thata long-running animation could skew. But in that
case you could probably amortize the cost of sending more messages over the longer time period.-Jonathan
