Animatable

This Animatable function creates a float value holder that automatically animates its value when the value is changed via animateTo. Animatable supports value change during an ongoing value change animation. When that happens, a new animation will transition Animatable from its current value (i.e. value at the point of interruption) to the new target. This ensures that the value change is always continuous using animateTo. If spring animation (i.e. default animation) is used with animateTo, the velocity change will be guaranteed to be continuous as well.

Unlike AnimationState, Animatable ensures mutual exclusiveness on its animation. To do so, when a new animation is started via animateTo (or animateDecay), any ongoing animation job will be cancelled.

Parameters

This Animatable function creates a Color value holder that automatically animates its value when the value is changed via animateTo. Animatable supports value change during an ongoing value change animation. When that happens, a new animation will transition Animatable from its current value (i.e. value at the point of interruption) to the new target. This ensures that the value change is always continuous using animateTo. If spring animation (i.e. default animation) is used with animateTo, the velocity change will be guaranteed to be continuous as well.

Unlike AnimationState, Animatable ensures mutual exclusiveness on its animation. To do so, when a new animation is started via animateTo (or animateDecay), any ongoing animation job will be cancelled via a CancellationException.

Animatable also supports animating data types other than Color, such as Floats and generic types. See Animatable for other variants.
