[OpenLayers-Users] Tweening pinpoints

Thu Dec 8 10:50:27 EST 2011

Hi Casper

This is it:

http://paste.ideaslabs.com/show/z8cOKJZr1X

I got rid of the error so no errors, but tweening is not working. 
It's partly dependant to our own API so it'll throw some errors if you
set it up on your sandbox etc... 

I'm just hoping I'm missing something very simple that you could spot
straight away...
I'll keep working on it.. Thanks for your help!! 

Takako

Perhaps you could share parts of your code and the error you are
getting?
I think that will be more efficient then you having to recode another
example :)

	Hi Casper

	Do you think you could put up an example page somewhere for
moving pinpoints? 
	I've put the code in, but throws an error which I'm struggling
to get rid of! 

	I've been having a look at this one too
http://openlayers.org/dev/tests/manual/tween.html
<http://openlayers.org/dev/tests/manual/tween.html> 
	but not luck converting this into my code.

	Hi Takako,

	In my example I wanted the map to move.
	However, it should be fairly easy to adapt the code to your
liking.

	Basically what I do is letting the tween class calculate my path
& timing, and on eachStep I move the map. On eachStep, you should move
your pinpoint with something like this: (NOTE: not tested)

	someFunc: function() {

	// var fromCoord = your starting point
	// var toCoord = your destination point
	// var duration = number of steps it should take, the more you
take, the smoother the ride & longer it will take. (unless you also
change the INTERVAL constant on Tween)
	var callbacks = {
	   eachStep: tweenstep
	};
	var tween = new
OpenLayers.Tween(OpenLayers.Easing.Quad.easeInOut);
	tween.start(fromCoord, toCoord, duration, {callbacks: callbacks}

	},

	tweenstep: function (value) {
	  // TODO: move your feature to the new coord
	  // given in value.x and value.y
	},

	And another note: the tweenstep function is being called from
the tween class, so you are out of scope and cannot see your feature.
That's why, in my blogpost, I also stored the map object into the tween.
You will probably have to do something similar with your feature.

	If you can't get this to work, I might be able to set up a
sample somewhere. Also, you might have some luck looking at the
developer example code:
	http://openlayers.org/dev/tests/manual/tween.html

	regards,
	Casper

		Hi, so this is what I currently got. 

		http://paste.org/41978

		I can't seem to see Tweening working between
pinpoints... Any advise would be much appreciated. 
		The map shouldn't move and just pinpoints should move...

		I dabbled a bit with this a few weeks ago and posted a
small blog on it... Maybe it helps.

			Thanks for this! I had a look at .Tween, but as
it reacts to DOM elements I couldn't be sure if it works with Lon Lat
(X.Y) figure. 
			I'll try again later on though.

			There is an OpenLayers.Tween class I believe.

			Also, this is something that could easily be
done iwth just regular javascript.  Don't forget, OpenLayers is
comprised of DOM elements, so you can manipulate the map with regular
javascript, you don't have to use an OpenLayers construct.

				Hello, 

				I'm currently using
OpenLayers.Control.DragFeature to move pinpoint from one place to
another. 

				        var dragFeature = new
OpenLayers.Control.DragFeature(location); 

map.addControl(dragFeature); 

dragFeature.activate(); 

				But not only moving pinpoints, I need to
add tween animation. 

				Has anyone done tween animation for
moving pinpoints? 

				Any advise would be much appreciated! 

				Thanks
