[Solved] QPropertyAnimation: How to move a widget ?

[Sam]

I have a requirement where I need to move the widget from one position to the other with some animation effect.
For eg: I need to move my widget from (10,0) to (150,0) and then back to (10,0)

How to implement this.

Thanks

It's a matter of creating "QPropertyAnimation":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qpropertyanimation.html instance, setting endValue and/or keyframes, duration and starting animation. There is an example in QPropertyAnimation docs. If there is more animations involved you may consider using "State Machine Framework":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/statemachine-api.html.

Thanks for the help,

I got the solution and its working. I used two QPropertyAnimations one from (10,0) to (150,0) then another from (150,0) to (10,0) when first animation is finished.

In that case, you could also use keyframes and only one QPropertyAnimation. Check second example: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/animation-overview.html#animating-qt-properties

Thankd for the help again.

Can you tell me where can I find more examples on State machine and QPropertyAnimation.
