[ 30 SEPT: VERSION 3 RC2 NOW AVAILABLE ]
AJAX sites often contain effects to make them look snazzy, this project aims to provide a simple library for applying effects to GWT components, in a native manner (i.e. no flash and no external JS libraries.
Try Interactive demo / here for a tutorial, a quick reference guide, and some tools to try out standard effects and create your own based on css styles.
Version 3, due Oct 2008, takes advantage of GWT 1.5 syntax and new classes, and basis effects completely on differences between styles allowing for a completely user definable set of effects.
To ease use, a certain number of defined effects are provided (e.g. Fade, Move, Slides, Wipes, Resize), along with 6 different progressions (linear, eases, bounce and elastic). By using the MorphStyle class, extremely flexible animations between different styles (defined in CSS language) can be created.
