GSoC advancement
Since I have started my GSoC, I didn’t post about it. So that is my first post, and I explain my advancement.
My subject has been Improve animation framework and create animation effects for KPresenter
Currently, only loading and displaying of some effect work:
- Standard (dis)apperance (a shape was shown or not).
- Width or height resizing
- Translation on x or y axis
- Rotation
- And all combination of this effect
All this effect work with the <anim:animate> element. And for animation evolution over the time, only <smil:values> with optional <smil:keytimes> element work for the moment.
In order to test this you can create a presentation in OpenOffice impress, and add custom animation like appear, disappear, zoom, fly in, spin in/out (work without fade effect)…
Now, I start to write code in order to save animation in odf file, implement support for other smil animation effect function (<smil:from>, <smil:to>, <smil:by>) and <anim:formula> and animate parts of text shape.
You can see the current state in this video
In the future I try to post a weekly report.
