Animations

Animate a property change by declaring an animation for it with the animate keyword: every change of that property then plays the animation — no matter whether it comes from a binding, a state change, or your business logic.

export component Example inherits Window {
preferred-width: 100px;
preferred-height: 100px;
background: area.pressed ? blue : red;
animate background {
duration: 250ms;
}
area := TouchArea {}
}
slint

This animates the color property for 250ms whenever it changes.

Fine-tune the animation with delay, duration, iteration-count, easing, direction, and enabled, and animate several properties with the same animation:

animate x, y { duration: 100ms; easing: ease-out-bounce; }
slint

The Animations chapter of the language reference describes every parameter, and the easing type lists the available easing curves.
