Detailed Description

\inmodule QtCore

The QTimeLine class provides a timeline for controlling animations.

Since: 4.2

It's most commonly used to animate a GUI control by calling a slot periodically. You can construct a timeline by passing its duration in milliseconds to QTimeLine's constructor. The timeline's duration describes for how long the animation will run. Then you set a suitable frame range by calling setFrameRange(). Finally connect the frameChanged() signal to a suitable slot in the widget you wish to animate (for example, \l {QProgressBar::}{setValue()} in QProgressBar). When you proceed to calling start(), QTimeLine will enter Running state, and start emitting frameChanged() at regular intervals, causing your widget's connected property's value to grow from the lower end to the upper and of your frame range, at a steady rate. You can specify the update interval by calling setUpdateInterval(). When done, QTimeLine enters NotRunning state, and emits finished().

Example:

...
progressBar = new QProgressBar(this);
progressBar->setRange(0, 100);
 
// Construct a 1-second timeline with a frame range of 0 - 100
QTimeLine *timeLine = new QTimeLine(1000, this);
timeLine->setFrameRange(0, 100);
connect(timeLine, &QTimeLine::frameChanged, progressBar, &QProgressBar::setValue);
 
// Clicking the push button will start the progress bar animation
pushButton = new QPushButton(tr("Start animation"), this);
connect(pushButton, &QPushButton::clicked, timeLine, &QTimeLine::start);
...

By default the timeline runs once, from its beginning to its end, upon which you must call start() again to restart from the beginning. To make the timeline loop, you can call setLoopCount(), passing the number of times the timeline should run before finishing. The direction can also be changed, causing the timeline to run backward, by calling setDirection(). You can also pause and unpause the timeline while it's running by calling setPaused(). For interactive control, the setCurrentTime() function is provided, which sets the time position of the time line directly. Although most useful in NotRunning state (e.g., connected to a valueChanged() signal in a QSlider), this function can be called at any time.

The frame interface is useful for standard widgets, but QTimeLine can be used to control any type of animation. The heart of QTimeLine lies in the valueForTime() function, which generates a value between 0 and 1 for a given time. This value is typically used to describe the steps of an animation, where 0 is the first step of an animation, and 1 is the last step. When running, QTimeLine generates values between 0 and 1 by calling valueForTime() and emitting valueChanged(). By default, valueForTime() applies an interpolation algorithm to generate these value. You can choose from a set of predefined timeline algorithms by calling setEasingCurve().

Note that, by default, QTimeLine uses QEasingCurve::InOutSine, which provides a value that grows slowly, then grows steadily, and finally grows slowly. For a custom timeline, you can reimplement valueForTime(), in which case QTimeLine's easingCurve property is ignored.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Direction

enum QTimeLine::Direction

This enum describes the direction of the timeline when in \l Running state.

\value Forward The current time of the timeline increases with time (i.e., moves from 0 and towards the end / duration).

\value Backward The current time of the timeline decreases with time (i.e., moves from the end / duration and towards 0).

See also: setDirection()

Enumerator
Forward
Backward

Definition at line 35 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ State

enum QTimeLine::State

This enum describes the state of the timeline.

\value NotRunning The timeline is not running. This is the initial state of QTimeLine, and the state QTimeLine reenters when finished. The current time, frame and value remain unchanged until either setCurrentTime() is called, or the timeline is started by calling start().

\value Paused The timeline is paused (i.e., temporarily suspended). Calling setPaused(false) will resume timeline activity.

\value Running The timeline is running. While control is in the event loop, QTimeLine will update its current time at regular intervals, emitting valueChanged() and frameChanged() when appropriate.

See also: easingCurve, frameForTime()

Definition at line 592 of file qtimeline.cpp.

Property Documentation

◆ currentTime

int QTimeLine::currentTime

readwrite

the current time of the time line.

When QTimeLine is in Running state, this value is updated continuously as a function of the duration and direction of the timeline. Otherwise, it is value that was current when stop() was called last, or the value set by setCurrentTime().

Note: You can bind other properties to currentTime, but it is not recommended setting bindings to it. As animation progresses, the currentTime is updated automatically, which cancels its bindings.

By default, this property contains a value of 0.

Definition at line 24 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ direction

Direction QTimeLine::direction

readwrite

the direction of the timeline when QTimeLine is in \l Running state.

This direction indicates whether the time moves from 0 towards the timeline duration, or from the value of the duration and towards 0 after start() has been called.

Any binding of direction will be removed not only by setDirection(), but also by toggleDirection().

By default, this property is set to \l Forward.

Definition at line 25 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ duration

int QTimeLine::duration

readwrite

the total duration of the timeline in milliseconds.

By default, this value is 1000 (i.e., 1 second), but you can change this by either passing a duration to QTimeLine's constructor, or by calling setDuration(). The duration must be larger than 0.

Note: Changing the duration does not cause the current time to be reset to zero or the new duration. You also need to call setCurrentTime() with the desired value.

Definition at line 21 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ easingCurve

QEasingCurve QTimeLine::easingCurve

readwrite

Since: 4.6

Specifies the easing curve that the timeline will use. If valueForTime() is reimplemented, this value is ignored.

See also: valueForTime()

Definition at line 27 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ loopCount

int QTimeLine::loopCount

readwrite

the number of times the timeline should loop before it's finished.

A loop count of 0 means that the timeline will loop forever.

By default, this property contains a value of 1.

Definition at line 26 of file qtimeline.h.

◆ updateInterval

int QTimeLine::updateInterval

readwrite

the time in milliseconds between each time QTimeLine updates its current time.

When updating the current time, QTimeLine will emit valueChanged() if the current value changed, and frameChanged() if the frame changed.

By default, the interval is 40 ms, which corresponds to a rate of 25 updates per second.
