Layer Animation

Group Animation

group animation and layer animation to member of a group works together.

for instance, you can create a rotation animation to a layer as member of a group, and create a linear animation to a group which moves the group position

Animation to a layer

for instance a red triagnle will rotate 720 degree.

  • To

    • x, y: nil
    • roation: 720
    • scale: 0.2

Animation to a group

group0 position will move to (200, 0)

  • group0_linear.lua

    M.to = {
      x     = 200,
      y     = 0,
      --
      alpha = 1,
      yScale   = 1,
      xScale   = 1,
      rotation = 0,
    }

Path Animation

  • Photoshop/animation/path.psd

    • PathSnow closed
    • PathStar open
  • Solar2D/animation/path

    select a path json file that has been generated with Kwik exporter in Photoshop. You can find it the image folder of images generated
