Animated transitions from Sourceflow to Coverflows #35

Open kaisersozeh opened 6 years ago

kaisersozeh commented 6 years ago

Coverflows As a selection is made in the sourceflow, the sourceflow covers exit screen at the top, for example The selected coverflow enters the screen from the bottom. Leaving the coverflow to return to the surceflow, the coverflow leaves from the bottom of screen, the sourceflow enters from the top.

The idea is to imbue the idea of movement between strata - the wait animation between the coverflows loading, if needed, could help illustrate this sense of movement. Coverflows could enter the screen from behind the pov of the user, or from a distant point in the center of the screen,; the wait animation could be a hyperdrive starfield moving inwards or outwards respectively.,

I'll need to get some sources added and see how this looks currently then I can comment properly. Also there may be memory constraints that prevent animating from multiple cover flow interfaces, but I don't know yet.

I really don't expect to able to reproduce two coverflows at the same time, but hopefully give the illusion that you nearly have. Depending on the size of the cache, switching between sourceflow and coverflow can be so fast the wait animation hasn't time to start. Installing abz's pack will give you a plethora of stuff!
