Animate
You can use the Animate UI Pattern to create animations within your app. This UI pattern allows you to emphasize elements as they appear on screen which enhances the overall usability of the app.
How to use the Animate UI Pattern
-
In Service Studio, in the Toolbox, search for
Animate.The Animate widget is displayed.
-
From the Toolbox, drag the Animate widget into the Main Content area of your application's screen.
By default, the Animate widget contains a Content placeholder.
-
Add the content you want to animate to the Content placeholder.
In this example, we add an image by dragging the Image widget into the Content placeholder, and on the Properties tab, from the Image dropdown, selecting image from the sample OutSystems UI images.
-
Select the Animate widget, and on the Properties tab, set the relevant properties, for example, where you want the animation to enter the screen and at what speed.
After following these steps and publishing the module, you can test the pattern in your app.
