Animation(**properties)

Methods

class Animation

get_follow_enable_animations_setting() → bool: Gets whether self should be skipped when animations are globally disabled.

Added in version 1.3.

get_state() → AnimationState

Gets the current value of self.

The state indicates whether self is currently playing, paused, finished or hasn’t been started yet.

get_target() → AnimationTarget: Gets the target self animates.

get_value() → float: Gets the current value of self.

get_widget() → Widget

Gets the widget self was created for.

It provides the frame clock for the animation. It’s not strictly necessary for this widget to be same as the one being animated.

The widget must be mapped in order for the animation to work. If it’s not mapped, or if it gets unmapped during an ongoing animation, the animation will be automatically skipped.

pause() → None

Pauses a playing animation for self.

Does nothing if the current state of self isn’t ADW_ANIMATION_PLAYING.

Sets state to ADW_ANIMATION_PAUSED.

play() → None

Starts the animation for self.

If the animation is playing, paused or has been completed, restarts it from the beginning. This allows to easily play an animation regardless of whether it’s already playing or not.

Sets state to ADW_ANIMATION_PLAYING.

The animation will be automatically skipped if widget is unmapped, or if gtk_enable_animations is FALSE.

As such, it’s not guaranteed that the animation will actually run. For example, when using idle_add and starting an animation immediately afterwards, it’s entirely possible that the idle callback will run after the animation has already finished, and not while it’s playing.

reset() → None

Resets the animation for self.

Sets state to ADW_ANIMATION_IDLE.

resume() → None

Resumes a paused animation for self.

This function must only be used if the animation has been paused with pause.

Sets state to ADW_ANIMATION_PLAYING.

set_follow_enable_animations_setting(setting: bool) → None

Sets whether to skip self when animations are globally disabled.

The default behavior is to skip the animation. Set to FALSE to disable this behavior.

This can be useful for cases where animation is essential, like spinners, or in demo applications. Most other animations should keep it enabled.

See gtk_enable_animations.

Added in version 1.3.

Parameters:: setting – whether to follow the global setting

set_target(target: AnimationTarget) → None

Sets the target self animates to target.

Parameters:: target – an animation target

skip() → None

Skips the animation for self.

If the animation hasn’t been started yet, is playing, or is paused, instantly skips the animation to the end and causes done to be emitted.

Sets state to ADW_ANIMATION_FINISHED.

Properties

class Animation

props.follow_enable_animations_setting: bool

Whether to skip the animation when animations are globally disabled.

The default behavior is to skip the animation. Set to FALSE to disable this behavior.

This can be useful for cases where animation is essential, like spinners, or in demo applications. Most other animations should keep it enabled.

See gtk_enable_animations.

Added in version 1.3.

props.state: AnimationState

The animation state.

The state indicates whether the animation is currently playing, paused, finished or hasn’t been started yet.

props.target: AnimationTarget: The target to animate.

props.value: float: The current value of the animation.

props.widget: Widget

The animation widget.

It provides the frame clock for the animation. It’s not strictly necessary for this widget to be same as the one being animated.

The widget must be mapped in order for the animation to work. If it’s not mapped, or if it gets unmapped during an ongoing animation, the animation will be automatically skipped.

Signals

class Animation.signals

done() → None: This signal is emitted when the animation has been completed, either on its own or via calling skip.

Fields

class Animation

parent_instance
