I'm trying to do this animation in flutter :
https://material.io/guidelines/motion/choreography.html#choreography-creation
My problem is that I have absolutely no idea how to do that.
As far as I know, widgets in flutter don't know their position nor the position or other widgets at all.
And you can't access context.size inside the build method.
I tried to use Hero animation to do it. Or ScaleTransition. But it's definitely not working.
You can use showMenu to dynamically show a popup menu at a given location. Consider using PopupMenuButton, which is an IconButton that automatically shows a menu when it is tapped. There's an example in the Gallery. If showMenu doesn't do what you want, you can copy the code in popup_menu.dart and customize it to make your own version. It uses CustomSingleChildLayout and PopupRoute.
If you just want to absolutely position a Material or Card on top of other elements, you can give it some elevation and use a Positioned within a Stack. You can use an AnimatedSize to adjust the element's size with a Curve. This won't interact with the back button on Android automatically, so if you want that, you may have to use addLocalHistoryEntry or PopupRoute.
If I understand you correct - you want to show square widget, and animation is not suitable at most because widget doesn't know its size.
In this case you can try MediaQuery.of(context).size.width - it returns width of your screen, so you can use it for calculating widgets size
The Problem:
I am currently trying to get the background image of launch page of my app and the first view controller to match in size.
On left, launch screen on the right first view controller.
However as you can see the navigation bar appears to resize the background image.
Both back ground images are currently set to centre vertically and horizontally and both have equal width and height to the view.
What Ive tried
I have obviously tried messing around with auto layout to now avail,
I have also tried toggling the Extend Edges “under Top Bars” option, it is currently set to true in the above image. This didn't work either.
Question
How do I get both background images to have the same sizes (consistent) between the launch screen and the first view controller, for all iPhone devices (in auto layout)?
Found the answer for anyone with this problem.
Tick extend edges under Opaque bars for the view controller.
I would like to change the screen size of the ARC-Welder chrome-extention to a 7inch screen - displayed on my pc - to test an app on different screen sizes.
Can this be done using for example the meta-data input?
Similar to a question that I asked recently but I think shares the same answer. It seems that there are few choices when it comes to form factor, and based on the answer to my question I think that you can only use the three form factor presets for now.
(from #Elijah Taylor)
The size of the window is not configurable per activity*, but the orientation is. The two options in ARC Welder that control the window are:
Orientation: This is either landscape or portrait, which will be the default orientation for your app. However, if you set a screenOrientation on your Android activity, this can override the orientation per activity, with the window rotating to compensate. There is a performance cost to rotating this way because the plugin will be rotated via CSS.
Form Factor: This is one of phone, tablet, or maximized. This controls the overall size of your app globally.
but for Chrome 42 and up you can use the metadata {"resize": "reconfigure"} to allow arbitrary user resizing. Your app must be able to relayout with a variety of aspect ratios and resolutions in this mode.
My question at:Android ARC app for chrome, set size of windows for different Activities/Layouts
You can Use this MetaData :
{
"resize":"reconfigure"
}
just thought i'd mention that there is also "formFactor": "fullscreen" if want to test full screen it also works with "resize":"reconfigure"
My idea is building a logo image (similar to Matlab's startup one) which shows before my gui is appeared. I have the following code (it was obtained modifying the solution given by How do I make a splash screen for my MATLAB GUI application?) for it:
% create a figure1 that is not visible yet, and has minimal titlebar properties
fh = figure('Visible','off','MenuBar','none','NumberTitle','off',...
'DockControls','off');
% put an axes in it
ah = axes('Parent',fh,'Visible','on');
% put the image in it
ih = imshow('SIS.gif','Parent',ah);
% set the figure1 size to be just big enough for the image, and centered at
% the center of the screen
imxpos = get(ih,'XData');
imypos = get(ih,'YData');
set(ah,'Unit','Normalized','Position',[0,0,1,1]);
figpos = get(fh,'Position');
figpos(3:4) = [imxpos(2) imypos(2)];
set(fh,'Position',figpos);
movegui(fh,'center')
% make the figure1 visible
set(fh,'Visible','on');
pause(3);
close(fh);
I have two problems:
Number 1: I want the logo image's figure windows has no borders, no title and no taskbars. I have tried the WindowAPI but it does not work because I call it after the above code and because of the visibility of the window is off, then the handle of it is off too.
Number 2:I want that, when the logo image is disappeared, it is showed the gui window maximized. Where is the problem? The screen transition between the logo image's window and the gui window is not smoothed. I have tried to use a lot of Matlab´s applications that I found in Matlab Central's File Exchange (WindowAPI, Maxfig, Maximize, SetFigTransparency,...) without success. I realized that the problem is the visibility of my gui (I set off until all elements are created and then I change it to on). Because of the off visibility cause the handlevisibility is off too, the previous mentioned applications has no effects on the figure window that I want to maximize.
After observating the startup of Matlab, I have noticed that after the logo is showed, it appears a fullscreen image followed by the normal fullscreen of the program. So I have tried to create an maximized fullscreen windows that appears after the logo's windows is closed. However, now the problem is the transition between this last and the gui window. If I set the visibility of the gui window on and then I maximize it, during an instant it can be seen that transition that bothers me. I do not know what to do. I also think that if I could avoid that the guide window is currentfigure when I change its visibility, perhaps I would achieve it. Other solution it might be a timer that hold the white window as currentfigure while the guide window is behind changing its visibility but I do not know how to do. Thank you for your attention. Cheers.
As I show in this answer, derived from this MathWorks newsgroup thread, you can create a window without a title, borders, etc., using Java. Here's a modification of the code from my other answer to create a splash window centered on the screen:
img = imread('peppers.png'); %# A sample image to display
jimg = im2java(img);
frame = javax.swing.JFrame;
frame.setUndecorated(true);
icon = javax.swing.ImageIcon(jimg);
label = javax.swing.JLabel(icon);
frame.getContentPane.add(label);
frame.pack;
imgSize = size(img);
frame.setSize(imgSize(2),imgSize(1));
screenSize = get(0,'ScreenSize'); %# Get the screen size from the root object
frame.setLocation((screenSize(3)-imgSize(2))/2,... %# Center on the screen
(screenSize(4)-imgSize(1))/2);
frame.show; %# You can hide it again with frame.hide
I would try this to create your splash screen and see if it also helps with the problems transitioning to the next GUI window.
After a long research work, I have found a reasonable answer which was nearest to that I thought. If you type in "splash screen" in the File Exchange browser, you have some interesting applications designed specifically to it. I have chosen splash.m. With respect to the smooth transition, I have used these programs: WindowAPI and maximize.
The written code looks like this:
logoh = splash('logo.jpg'); %# Appear the logo image
fh = figure('Visible','on','Name','MyGUI','Position',[-1000,-1000,...
1000,500],'Menu','none','Toolbar','none','NumberTitle','off');
%# Put the figure window outside the screen (see Position property) because
%# its visibility is on
WindowAPI(fh,'Alpha',0); %# Make the figure window invisible
...
movegui(fh,'center'); %# Move the figure window to center
maximize(fh);% Maximize it
WindowAPI(fh,'Alpha',1); %# Make the figure window visible totally
pause(2); %# time during which the logo image is exposed
splash(logoh,'off'); %# Disappear the logo image
I have created a MATLAB GUI, which I would like to display so that it fills the whole screen. Currently, the titlebar is showing at the very top. Is there a way to hide this titlebar?
I considered using the psychtoolbox for this purpose, which allows for full screen displays, but this doesn't allow for standard MATLAB GUI elements to be included as I understand it.
(If it is of importance, this is for OSX. I would obviously hide the menubar before making the GUI fullscreen.)
I don't know if this will work for OSX, but on Windows I was able to use the Java code from this MATLAB newsgroup thread to create a full screen window with no title, edges, etc. and display an image in the middle. Here's how I made the window:
img = imread('peppers.png'); %# A sample image to display
jimg = im2java(img);
frame = javax.swing.JFrame;
frame.setUndecorated(true);
icon = javax.swing.ImageIcon(jimg);
label = javax.swing.JLabel(icon);
frame.getContentPane.add(label);
frame.pack;
screenSize = get(0,'ScreenSize'); %# Get the screen size from the root object
frame.setSize(screenSize(3),screenSize(4));
frame.setLocation(0,0);
frame.show;
And you can hide the frame again by doing this:
frame.hide;
Not sure how this would work in general for displaying a typical MATLAB GUI. I'll have to play around with it more and find out.
