Re: [Dynapi-Dev] [Bug #128263] PathAnimation.stopAnimation() bug (& patch)

[Richard :o <ma...@ri...>]

Hi,
I'm glad to see pathanim tackled at last.What you're sayng is correct, and
is what I did in my modified pathanim (see:
http://www.resass.f2s.com/?menu=examples&node=1  or
http://www.richardinfo.f2s.com/?menu=examples&node=1
under "dynapi.util.pathanim.chained.html" when the servers up again)

But I also had to add the method stopAnimation now() , which is identical,
but without
invoke-ing pathstop, so the animation could be manually halted without
starting the next one from the onpathstop listener:

PathAnimation.prototype.stopAnimationNow = function () {
 if (this.pathPlaying && this.pathPlaying.resets && !this.cancelThread &&
this.dlyr!=null) this.dlyr.moveTo(this.pathPlaying[0],this.pathPlaying[1]);
 this.stop();
 delete this.pathPlaying;  // only deletes unstored path
 this.playing = false;
};
 And I don't understand why slideBy() has been scrapped just because you can
do that manually aswell; you can do most of the
API manually, but it's easier if you can just call a method. And we still
use moveBy(), so slideBy() keeps consistency, and saves changing existing
webcode when you upgrade you're API.

DynLayer.prototype.slideBy = function(x,y,inc,ms) {
 if (x==null) x = 0;
 if (y==null) y = 0;
 this.slideTo(this.x+x,this.y+y,inc,ms);
};

Cheers,
Richard  :o
