Detailed Description

Defines a 'interpolator' class.

Interpolator allows you to interpolate between 2 properties. You can jut pass them as strings and Interpolator does everything for you.

If you want to define your own interpolator, inherit this class and add it to AnimationManager via AnimationManager::addInterpolator to make it available for animations.

Member Function Documentation

virtual String CEGUI::Interpolator::interpolateAbsolute ( const String value1,
const String value2,
float  position 
)
pure virtual

this is used when Affector is set to apply values in absolute mode (application method == AM_Absolute)

Implemented in CEGUI::QuaternionSlerpInterpolator, CEGUI::TplDiscreteInterpolator< T >, and CEGUI::TplLinearInterpolator< T >.

virtual String CEGUI::Interpolator::interpolateRelative ( const String base,
const String value1,
const String value2,
float  position 
)
pure virtual

this is used when Affector is set to apply values in relative mode (application method == AM_Relative)

Implemented in CEGUI::QuaternionSlerpInterpolator, CEGUI::TplDiscreteRelativeInterpolator< T >, CEGUI::TplDiscreteInterpolator< T >, and CEGUI::TplLinearInterpolator< T >.

virtual String CEGUI::Interpolator::interpolateRelativeMultiply ( const String base,
const String value1,
const String value2,
float  position 
)
pure virtual

this is used when Affector is set to apply values in relative multiply mode (application method == AM_RelativeMultiply)

Implemented in CEGUI::QuaternionSlerpInterpolator, CEGUI::TplDiscreteInterpolator< T >, and CEGUI::TplLinearInterpolator< T >.
