G’day! I’ve produced a new patch to provide SMIL Animation for SVG. Since last time I’ve added: keySplines keyTimes accumulate restart min, max ElementTimeControl DOM interface I’ve added a status page showing just what’s been implemented and I’ve also updated the test cases. This represents all the features I intend to implement this year although [...]
Here’s an updated patch with my latest changes including: Optimised performance–a lot of unnecessary rendering has been filtered out and the profiling I was able to perform suggests this has made a significant difference, especially when the animation is frozen. Animation now pauses and resets when the page is cached in the bfcache. Better thread [...]
Aided by flat surf but hampered by perfect weather I’ve spent most of the last week tidying up my code and updating the documentation on the wiki. The latest patch is hopefully much better, or at least not quite as hideous as it was in some parts. Fill modes are now implemented except for one [...]
Additive animation appears to be working. The test case I mentioned in the last post works, even the nasty tree re-ordering cases. I’ve also extended the additive test case a little to test a bit more of the dynamic behaviour. In implementing this I’ve tightened up the implementation of the <animate> element somewhat and wrapped [...]
I’ve done most of the work required for additive animation. The remaining part is to correctly order animations in the animation sandwich after changes to the document structure. So in this test case the last two squares don’t behave as they should. (However, ASV fails in the same way.) Also, I’ve implemented from/to/by animation and [...]
I’ve begun work on implementing compositing. This will take some time. Also I’m no longer sure I’ll be able to deliver syncbase timing this year as instead I may need to focus on integration issues, performance, documentation, thread-safety and so on. Hopefully all this will mean it has a better chance of getting checked in [...]
I’ve added a basic implementation of repeating
I’ve implemented handling for multiple begin and end values including calculating the active duration, selecting the correct interval etc. Interestingly Adobe SVG Viewer (6 beta) seems to do things a little differently to what I’d expect based on the SMIL Animation spec. There are a few cases but probably the most important one is when [...]
Patch of my progress so far
A quick update on the first iteration.
