Animation Using Animation Effect and Trigger Element
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for animating an image element, the method comprising:
- determining that a trigger event defined by a trigger element occurs; and
in response to the trigger event, applying an animation effect to a group that comprises at least one image element, wherein a first association between the animation effect and the group is configured for another animation effect to selectively be associated with the group, and wherein a second association between the trigger element and the animation effect is configured for another trigger element to selectively be associated with the animation effect.

Abstract
Among other disclosed subject matter, a computer-implemented method for animating an image element includes determining that a trigger element defined by a trigger element occurs. The method includes, in response to the trigger element, applying an animation effect to a group that comprises at least one image element. A first association between the animation effect and the group is configured for another animation effect to selectively be associated with the group, and a second association between the trigger element and the animation effect is configured for another trigger element to selectively be associated with the animation effect.

18. A computer program product tangibly embodied in a computer-readable storage medium and comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method for animating an image element, the method comprising:
-
determining that a trigger event defined by a trigger element occurs; and in response to the trigger event, applying an animation effect to a group that comprises at least one image element, wherein a first association between the animation effect and the group is configured for another animation effect to selectively be associated with the group, and wherein a second association between the trigger element and the animation effect is configured for another trigger element to selectively be associated with the animation effect.

19. A computer-implemented method for providing animation of an image element, the method comprising:
-
obtaining a group comprising at least one image element that is to be animated; generating a first association for an animation effect to be applied to the obtained group, the first association being configured for another animation effect to selectively be associated with the obtained group; and generating a second association for a trigger element to trigger the animation effect, the second association configured for another trigger element to selectively be associated with the animation effect. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
