<a name="details"></a>
<h2 id="details">Detailed Description</h2>
<p><a href="qtquick-animation-example.html#propertyanimation">PropertyAnimation</a> provides a way to animate changes to a property's value.</p>
<p>It can be used to define animations in a number of ways:</p>
<ul>
<li>In a <a href="qmlexampletoggleswitch.html#transition">Transition</a><p>For example, to animate any objects that have changed their <code>x</code> or <code>y</code> properties as a result of a state change, using an <code>InOutQuad</code> easing curve:</p>
<pre class="qml">

  <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-rectangle.html">Rectangle</a></span> {
      <span class="name">id</span>: <span class="name">rect</span>
      <span class="name">width</span>: <span class="number">100</span>; <span class="name">height</span>: <span class="number">100</span>
      <span class="name">color</span>: <span class="string">&quot;red&quot;</span>

      <span class="name">states</span>: <span class="name">State</span> {
          <span class="name">name</span>: <span class="string">&quot;moved&quot;</span>
          <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertychanges.html">PropertyChanges</a></span> { <span class="name">target</span>: <span class="name">rect</span>; <span class="name">x</span>: <span class="number">50</span> }
      }

      <span class="name">transitions</span>: <span class="name">Transition</span> {
          <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html">PropertyAnimation</a></span> { <span class="name">properties</span>: <span class="string">&quot;x,y&quot;</span>; <span class="name">easing</span>.type: <span class="name">Easing</span>.<span class="name">InOutQuad</span> }
      }
  }

</pre>
</li>
<li>In a <a href="qml-qtquick-behavior.html">Behavior</a><p>For example, to animate all changes to a rectangle's <code>x</code> property:</p>
<pre class="qml">

  <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-rectangle.html">Rectangle</a></span> {
      <span class="name">width</span>: <span class="number">100</span>; <span class="name">height</span>: <span class="number">100</span>
      <span class="name">color</span>: <span class="string">&quot;red&quot;</span>

      Behavior on <span class="name">x</span> { <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html">PropertyAnimation</a></span> {} }

      <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-mousearea.html">MouseArea</a></span> { <span class="name">anchors</span>.fill: <span class="name">parent</span>; <span class="name">onClicked</span>: <span class="name">parent</span>.<span class="name">x</span> <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">50</span> }
  }

</pre>
</li>
<li>As a property value source<p>For example, to repeatedly animate the rectangle's <code>x</code> property:</p>
<pre class="qml">

  <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-rectangle.html">Rectangle</a></span> {
      <span class="name">width</span>: <span class="number">100</span>; <span class="name">height</span>: <span class="number">100</span>
      <span class="name">color</span>: <span class="string">&quot;red&quot;</span>

      SequentialAnimation on <span class="name">x</span> {
          <span class="name">loops</span>: <span class="name">Animation</span>.<span class="name">Infinite</span>
          <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html">PropertyAnimation</a></span> { <span class="name">to</span>: <span class="number">50</span> }
          <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html">PropertyAnimation</a></span> { <span class="name">to</span>: <span class="number">0</span> }
      }
  }

</pre>
</li>
<li>In a signal handler<p>For example, to fade out <code>theObject</code> when clicked:</p>
<pre class="qml">

  <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-mousearea.html">MouseArea</a></span> {
      <span class="name">anchors</span>.fill: <span class="name">theObject</span>
      <span class="name">onClicked</span>: <span class="name">PropertyAnimation</span> { <span class="name">target</span>: <span class="name">theObject</span>; <span class="name">property</span>: <span class="string">&quot;opacity&quot;</span>; <span class="name">to</span>: <span class="number">0</span> }
  }

</pre>
</li>
<li>Standalone<p>For example, to animate <code>rect</code>'s <code>width</code> property over 500ms, from its current width to 30:</p>
<pre class="qml">

  <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-rectangle.html">Rectangle</a></span> {
      <span class="name">id</span>: <span class="name">theRect</span>
      <span class="name">width</span>: <span class="number">100</span>; <span class="name">height</span>: <span class="number">100</span>
      <span class="name">color</span>: <span class="string">&quot;red&quot;</span>

      <span class="comment">// this is a standalone animation, it's not running by default</span>
      <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-propertyanimation.html">PropertyAnimation</a></span> { <span class="name">id</span>: <span class="name">animation</span>;
                          <span class="name">target</span>: <span class="name">theRect</span>;
                          <span class="name">property</span>: <span class="string">&quot;width&quot;</span>;
                          <span class="name">to</span>: <span class="number">30</span>;
                          <span class="name">duration</span>: <span class="number">500</span> }

      <span class="type"><a href="qml-qtquick-mousearea.html">MouseArea</a></span> { <span class="name">anchors</span>.fill: <span class="name">parent</span>; <span class="name">onClicked</span>: <span class="name">animation</span>.<span class="name">running</span> <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">true</span> }
  }

</pre>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Depending on how the animation is used, the set of properties normally used will be different. For more information see the individual property documentation, as well as the <a href="qtquick-statesanimations-animations.html">Animation and Transitions in Qt Quick</a> introduction.</p>
<p>Note that <a href="qtquick-animation-example.html#propertyanimation">PropertyAnimation</a> inherits the abstract <a href="qml-qtquick-animation.html">Animation</a> type. This includes additional properties and methods for controlling the animation.</p>
