Tween Atom Types

The following atom types are defined for tween-related atoms:



 
enum {

    kTweenEntry                 = 'twen',

    kTweenData                  = 'data',

    kTweenType                  = 'twnt',

    kTweenStartOffset           = 'twst',

    kTweenDuration              = 'twdu',

    kTween3dInitialCondition    = 'icnd',

    kTweenInterpolationStyle    = 'isty',

    kTweenRegionData            = 'qdrg',

    kTweenPictureData           = 'PICT'

};



 
    kInputMapSubInputID         = 'subi',

};

kTweenEntry: A parent atom that defines a set of values for a tween operation. Its child atoms define the tween data type, the tween data, and additional attributes of the tween operation.
kTweenData: A leaf atom that contains the data values for a tween operation. You create a kTweenData atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom.
kTweenType: A leaf atom that contains the type of the data for a tween operation (for example, kTweenTypeShort ). You create a kTweenType atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom.
kTweenStartOffset: A leaf atom that contains the starting offset, in time units, of a tween operation. You create a kTweenStartOffset atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom. (Optional)
kTweenDuration: A leaf atom that contains the duration, in time units, of a tween operation. You create a kTweenDuration atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom. (Optional)
kTween3dInitialCondition: A leaf atom that contains an initial value for a 3D tween operation. You create a kTween3DInitialCondition atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom. The type of the initial value should be the same as the type of data to be tweened. If you do not provide an initial value, the tween operation is performed against a value of 0. (Optional)
kTweenInterpolationStyle: Reserved.
kTweenRegionData: A leaf atom that contains a region. You create a kTweenRegionData atom as an additional child of the kTweenEntry atom when the tween type is kTweenTypeQDRegion. The region is mapped onto the interpolated rectangle calculated by the tween operation.
kTweenPictureData: A leaf atom that contains a PICT image. You create a kTweenPictureData atom as a child of a kTweenEntry atom. Only used when tween type is between Region Data.
