Change Screen cover animation time

[Epamuk]

hello,

In my program I have some screens and I switch between screens by programaticily. If a button pressed below code switches screen

void Screen1_View::changeScreenToScreen2(){
  static_cast<FrontendApplication*>(Application::getInstance())->gotoScreen_Screen2CoverTransitionSouth();
}

This code works fine but I want to change cover time too. Is it possible to change screen transition time ? Is it fixed ?

Hi,

Usually, transitions are the same duration for every screen in the application. So the only way to change the animation time is in touchgfx/Transitions/CoverTransition.hpp (Or touchgfx/Transitions/ScreenTrantision.hpp). Increase steps to increase duration, etc.

    CoverTransition(const uint8_t transitionSteps = 20)
        : Transition(),
          handleTickCallback(this, &CoverTransition::tickMoveDrawable),
          direction(templateDirection),
          animationSteps(transitionSteps),
...

How when we need two speeds or more ???

[Romain DIELEMAN]

I guess you need different speed for the same transition based on different scenarios ? I think you should create your own custom transition through code, by copying the code and changing it according to what you need.

Otherwise the "easiest" but annoying solution may be to just mimic the cover transition by faking a screen transition and sliding the widgets/elements of your new screen over what you have.

Absurd we are in 2025 and version 25 still dont support set speed in Designer...
