Lot of small features but I try to keep the front end simple. We have tween, clip.
We a clip we can easily create sequences. I was inspired AnimeJS (by @juliangarnier).

And with stagger we can produce the same anim with differences each time, and with variation each repeat can be different (speed, timing, ...)

I added support for 2D Transform with different mode for angle blending: shortest, longest, clockwise, ...

The non trivial part was support of text and path. I built properly the inverse CDF to be able to have constant speed along a path (bezier, quadratic, ...)

And for natural motion I added some noise Perlin, Worley, ... And other procedural motion (can be improved in the future) TBD!

And all of that is making it trivially integradable on Dear ImGui.

And obviously as it's an animation engine for UI it had all easing function you want. Including some parametrizable Bezier, Physics Spring or even a custom callback for the creative ones.

@ocornut Thanks [Fixed]

@SoufianeKHIAT @ocornut But why? Debug panels don't need animation.
Show threadSoufianeKHIATDec 3
@ringoz @ocornut because you have more usecases of Dear ImGui than debug panel. Today full commercial application are build with Dear ImGui.

@SoufianeKHIAT @ocornut Hmm, yeah. I’ve seen those ugly apps, energy hogs refreshing 120 times per second. Now they can justify such architecture by animation needs, cool!

@ringoz Ugly is up to you for me this one is pleasing:

@SoufianeKHIAT Old screenshots are still ugly. Modern PWA version is better, but doesn't use Dear ImGui anymore.
Show threadSoufianeKHIATDec 4
@ringoz Out of curiosity, do you have examples of Desktop UI that you don't consider ugly?
