dialogs and fx

[sean]

all,

what's the best way to use the fx lib with dialogs that have shadows? obviously if i do something like a slideIn on the dlg container element i would be left with the underlying shadow. is there a way to run animations on more than one element? btw: i'm using 1.0 alpha.

Sean I plan on creating some dialog Fx when BasicDialog gets refactored to the new code. It is kind of a pain with shadows and shims and absolute positioned child elements. Slide may never work because of the child positioning.

There is no "sync" of multi element animations (like animator did). It is on the feature list though.

Any plans to add a "baloon" effect to dialog? or has anyone extended dialog to do that?

Are you referring to the Mac OSX style dialog opening? If so, they refer to that as the "genie" effect. If not, then I'm not sure what you're referring to. Either way, I think the answer is that it's not being worked on ;)
