Hi there,
I've added some animations to the routines functionalities in my branch and I'm just looking for your opinions about this. A demo video is available on my site [1]. Please let me know if you think that it's too much eye-candy or if you think that it's OK. I didn't check this into my repo yet and I'm keeping the code in my git-stash.
Personally, I don't like the table jumping up and down. Moving objects attract attention, especially if a large part of the screen moves, and in this case it looks like an effect done because it can be done. Space above Routines table should expand / contract to proper height in one move - it it needs two, then the effect stops looking nice, it becomes annoying.
If it can't be done, it would look nice with old content replaced by new with 0 opacity and using fade in to show it.
(Note - I can be prejudiced, I hate collapsible options in PMA because the animation used there is just wrong imo)
Piotr, feel free to suggest another animation.
After looking at it closely, I realized what bothers me in this case - 'clip' effect looks like two animations mixed up due to hidden panel being vertically centered - 'blind' and moving it at the same time, making it impossible to focus on what is being shown. Plain 'blind' would be the best, but is painfully slow due to reflows of all content below, so maybe a 'blind' that reserves space for box in the same way as 'clip' does (so that content below it is moved only once).
Piotr, 'slide' instead of 'clip' seems to work well.
Since my branch was merged with master, these sliding animations are now available for everyone to use.
Rouslan, thanks but I was not talking about a sliding message; this was about the sliding sections like Options in Browse.
