International Classification:

G06F 8/38
H04L 67/04
G06F 3/048

Abstract:

Techniques are described for determining a duration for a transition and alteration of the appearance of a user interface (UI) from a first UI state to a second UI state over the transition duration according to a timing function that specifies different rates of change in appearance over the course of the transition and is derived by adjusting a master timing function that is used to control a plurality of transitions in the UI to span the transition duration for the transition. A time value of an inflection point within the timing function is determined and the transition duration is divided into a first portion and a second portion so that the first portion extends from the beginning of the transition duration to the time value of the inflection point, and the second portion extends from the time value of the inflection point to the end of the transition duration.

International Classification:

G06T 13/80

G06F 9/451

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying a graphical user interface including a container having a first child element and a second child element; providing for display the container on the graphical user interface in a first state, the first state including display of the first child element, but not the second child element; applying a transition to the container to effectuate a state change of the container from the first state to a second state, the second state including display of the second child element, but not the first child element, applying the transition including applying a crossfade to the container to graphically fade the first child element to the second child element during application of the transition to the container; and after applying the transition, providing for display the container on the graphical user interface in the second state.

G06F 9/44

Abstract:

Techniques are described for dynamically determining a transition, at run-time, between user interface states of an application based on a timing function that is used for multiple, different transitions within one or more applications. The timing function is applied to the various transitioning graphical elements in the user interface, such that the appearance of each shared element is progressively altered at a rate that is determined according to the timing function. Shared elements are transitioned using the timing function (e.g., as a whole) during the duration of the transition. Outgoing and incoming elements are transitioned, respectively, using a first subsection and second subsection of the timing function, wherein the subsections are bounded by an inflection time which, in some instances, corresponds to a time of peak velocity of the timing function.
