MoveTo Problem

[acr21]

I am trying to have a popup slide in from the bottom of the screen using MoveTo. It works great except for 1 problem. The popup flashes into place for a split second before animating in from off the bottom of the screen. I have tried everything I could think of to fix the issue but nothing seems to work. Please help. Thanks.

Code: Select all

public Popup(String titleText)
   {
      super(Game.GetSkin());
      super.setVisible(false);
      super.setTouchable(Touchable.enabled);
      
      solidPixel = new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("content/ui/solid_pixel.png"));
      
      Sprite backgroundSprite = new Sprite(solidPixel);
      backgroundSprite.setColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.8f);
      
      SpriteDrawable backgroundDrawable = new SpriteDrawable(backgroundSprite);
      
      Sprite popupBackgroundSprite = new Sprite(solidPixel);
      popupBackgroundSprite.setColor(1f, 1f, 1f, 1f);
      
      SpriteDrawable popupBackgroundDrawable = new SpriteDrawable(popupBackgroundSprite);
      
      Sprite titlebarBackgroundSprite = new Sprite(solidPixel);
      titlebarBackgroundSprite.setColor(0.0f, 138.0f / 255.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
      
      SpriteDrawable titlebarBackgroundDrawable = new SpriteDrawable(titlebarBackgroundSprite);
      
      super.setFillParent(true);
      super.setBackground(backgroundDrawable);
      super.bottom();
      
      popup = new Table(Game.GetSkin());
      popup.setBackground(popupBackgroundDrawable);
      
      super.add(popup).fillX().expandX();

      titlebar = new Table(Game.GetSkin());
      titlebar.setBackground(titlebarBackgroundDrawable);
      
      popup.add(titlebar).fillX().expandX();

      // Create title label
      Label titleLabel = new Label(titleText, Game.GetSkin());
      
      titlebar.add(titleLabel).fillX().expandX().left().pad(5);
      
      this.addListener(new ClickListener() {
         
         @Override
         public void clicked(InputEvent event, float x, float y) {
            event.cancel();
         }
      });
   }


Code: Select all

public void show()
   {
      this.getStage().setScrollFocus(this);
      super.pack();
      
      popup.addAction(Actions.moveTo(popup.getX(), popup.getY(), .5f));
      
      popup.setY(-popup.getHeight());

      super.setVisible(true);
   }

Hi! Do you try use "sequence" for this?

Code: Select all

popup.addAction(Actions.moveTo(popup.getX(), popup.getY(), .5f));
popup.setY(-popup.getHeight());

And maybe i was wrong, but "popup.getX(), popup.getY()" seems to leave the window in the original place?

Do I need to use sequence if its only one Action?

[Semtiko]

No, you can set completion listener for moveto, because "popup.setY" will be called earlier then first act ends.

[acr21]

I set where it's going to with this:
popup.addAction(Actions.moveTo(popup.getX(), popup.getY(), .5f));

but then I need to move it to its starting point with this:
popup.setY(-popup.getHeight());

Like I said...it works but it flashes in its final position first.

This is just a guess, but are you sure that you aren't rendering the panel first before ever adding or checking that it needs to be animated?

No, you can set completion listener for moveto, because "popup.setY" will be called earlier then first act ends.

I was updating the api version of my project, but it seems the completion listener doesnt exist anymore.

I downloaded today nightly libs and have a "SequenceAction" in actions of stage2d. Try it.
