Hi Brian;
I would like to point out that ClutterAnimation has been deprecated in master,
and that you may want to look at ClutterTransition (and its subclasses)
instead; a Transition is a subclass of Timeline, so you would only have a
single set of semantics for completeness, as well as looping. The replacement
for the Animation class if you want to animate a GObject property is
ClutterPropertyTransition; you can group multiple properties using the
TransitionGroup class.
Ciao,
Emmanuele.
