KFadeWidgetEffect Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kdeui import *

Detailed Description

\class KFadeWidgetEffect kfadewidgeteffect.h KFadeWidgetEffect Animates changes fading the new UI over the old look.

This widget will put itself above the widget that will change and show a fading transition from the old to the new UI. It will delete itself after the animation is finished. Example:

 KFadeWidgetEffect *animation = new KFadeWidgetEffect(widgetThatWillChange);
 // do changes on widgetThatWillChange
 // ...
 animation->start();

Note:: The widget that changes needs to have a parent widget. KFadeWidgetEffect does not work for toplevel widgets (windows).
