The AnimationModule class implements object animation.

Example

Properties

Property	Description
`animationClips`	(get) animationClips: AnimationClips (set) (Not Available) Get an object that allows access to animation clips.
`playbackControllers`	(get) playbackControllers: AnimationPlaybackControllers (set) (Not Available) Get an object that allows access to animation playback controllers.
`samplers`	(get) samplers: SamplerFactory (set) (Not Available) Returns an instance of a `SamplerFactory` object that can be used to construct animation samplers.

Methods

Method	Description
`animate`	animate(driver: TimeDriver \| ValueDriver, sampler: ScalarSampler): ScalarSignal animate(driver: TimeDriver \| ValueDriver, sampler: ArrayOfScalarSamplers): ArrayOfScalarSignals animate(driver: TimeDriver \| ValueDriver, sampler: RotationSampler): QuaternionSignal animate(driver: TimeDriver \| ValueDriver, sampler: ColorSampler): RgbaSignal Combines the driver and the sampler to create a signal that can be used to animate arbitrary properties of arbitrary objects. For `TimeDriver`-based animations the animation will start only when `TimeDriver.start` is invoked.
`timeDriver`	timeDriver(params?: {durationMilliseconds?: number, loopCount?: number, mirror?: false \| true}): TimeDriver Returns a `TimeDriver` object that drives an animation for the specified parameters. Optional parameters that can be used: - `durationMilliseconds` - desgnates overall duration that driver should use. Default: `0` aka no specified duration. - `loopCount` - defines the number of iterations before the time driver stops. Default: `0`. - `mirror` - boolean value that controls whether the drive should replay the animation backwards on every other iteration.
`valueDriver`	valueDriver(value: ScalarSignal, min: number, max: number): ValueDriver Returns a `ValueDriver` object that drives an animation based on values emitted from a `ScalarSignal`. The signal values are normalized and clamped to specified `min` `and` max values.

Classes

Class	Description
AnimationClip	The `AnimationClip` class gives you access to the name, duration and identifier of each animation clip.
AnimationClips	The `AnimationClips` class allows access to animation clips.
AnimationPlaybackController	The `AnimationPlaybackController` class describes an animation playback controller asset.
AnimationPlaybackControllers	The `AnimationPlaybackControllers` class allows access to animation playback controllers.
ArrayOfScalarSamplers	The `ArrayOfScalarSamplers` class describes an array of scalar samplers. It extends the implementation of `Array<ScalarSampler>` type in JavaScript, and adds a single additional method to get a sampler at a particular index - `get()`.
ArrayOfScalarSignals	The `ArrayOfScalarSignals` class describes an array of scalar signals. It extends the implementation of `Array<ScalarSignal>` type in JavaScript, and adds a single additional method to get a sampler at a particular index - `get()`.
ColorSampler	The `ColorSampler` class encapsulates a color sampler.
Driver	The `Driver` class represents an animation driver, a class that can drive an animation using a sampler and time, value or other means. All animation drivers extend this base class and it's used to represent any animation driver in all APIs.
RotationSampler	The `RotationSampler` class is an animation sampler for object rotation. It does not expose its own methods or properties, but inherits from the Animation module.
SamplerFactory	The `SamplerFactory` class creates different types of animation samplers.
ScalarSampler	The `ScalarSampler` class encapsulates a scalar value sampler.
TimeDriver	The `TimeDriver` class allows driving an animation sampler using time.
ValueDriver	The `ValueDriver` class allows driving an animation sampler using raw values.
