Detailed Description

Animator types are different from normal Animation types. When using an Animator, the animation can be run in the render thread and the property value will jump to the end when the animation is complete.

The value of Item::rotation is updated after the animation has finished.

The following snippet shows how to use a RotationAnimator together with a Rectangle item.

Rectangle {
    id: rotatingBox
    width: 50
    height: 50
    color: "lightsteelblue"
    RotationAnimator {
        target: rotatingBox;
        from: 0;
        to: 360;
        duration: 1000
        running: true
    }
}

It is also possible to use the on keyword to tie the RotationAnimator directly to the rotation property of an Item instance.

Rectangle {
    width: 50
    height: 50
    color: "lightsteelblue"
    RotationAnimator on rotation {
        from: 0;
        to: 360;
        duration: 1000
    }
}
