Detailed Description

Alpha functions are used in animations to specify the rate of change of the animation parameter over time.

Understanding an animation as a parametric function over time, the alpha function is applied to the parameter of the animation before computing the final animation value.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Default constructor. Creates an alpha function object with the default built-in alpha function.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The alpha function

Constructor. Creates an alpha function object with the built-in alpha function passed as a parameter to the constructor.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]functionOne of the built-in alpha functions
Returns:
The alpha function

Constructor. Creates an alpha function object using a pointer to an alpha function passed as a parameter to the constructor.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]functionA pointer to an alpha function
Returns:
The alpha function
Dali::AlphaFunction::AlphaFunction ( const Dali::Vector2 controlPoint0,
const Dali::Vector2 controlPoint1 
)

Constructor.

Creates a bezier alpha function. The bezier will have the first point at (0,0) and the end point at (1,1).

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Parameters:
[in]controlPoint0A Vector2 which will be used as the first control point of the curve
[in]controlPoint1A Vector2 which will be used as the second control point of the curve
Returns:
The alpha function
Note:
The x components of the control points will be clamped to the range [0,1] to prevent non monotonic curves.

Member Function Documentation

Returns the control points of the alpha function.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
A pointer to a custom alpha function, or 0 if not defined

Returns the functioning mode of the alpha function.

Since:
2.4, DALi version 1.0.0
Returns:
The functioning mode of the alpha function
