You are correct. Things can get complex with many
animations. In that case we can just standardize on
thread events and then use a type argument to identify
the animation. For exampe:
e={
onthreadfinish:function(e,type){
if(type=='slideanimation'){
// some code here
else if(type=='glideanimation'){
// some code here
}else{
// some code here
}
}
};
The above will work for any animation that uses the
Thread object. But what about those (e.g. Fader,etc)
that does not use the Thread object?
Wouldn't it be better to use the following with the
above type argument?
onfxstart
onfxstop
onfxfinish
example:
e={
onfxfinish:function(e,type){
if(type=='slideanimation'){
// some code here
else if(type=='fader'){
// some code here
}else{
// some code here
}
}
};
