NAME
notcurses_fade - fade ncplanes in and out
SYNOPSIS
#include <notcurses/notcurses.h>
-
struct ncfadectx; // Called for each delta performed in a fade on ncp. If anything but 0 is // returned, the fading operation ceases immediately, and that value is // propagated out. If provided and not NULL, the faders will not themselves // call notcurses_render(). typedef int (*fadecb)(struct notcurses* nc, struct ncplane* ncp, const struct timespec*, void* curry);
bool notcurses_canfade(const struct notcurses* nc);
int ncplane_fadeout(struct ncplane* n, const struct timespec* ts, fadecb fader, void* curry);
int ncplane_fadein(struct ncplane* n, const struct timespec* ts, fadecb fader, void* curry);
int ncplane_pulse(struct ncplane* n, const struct timespec* ts, fadecb fader, void* curry);
struct ncfadectx* ncfadectx_setup(struct ncplane* n);
int ncfadectx_iterations(const struct ncfadectx* nctx);
int ncplane_fadeout_iteration(struct ncplane* n, struct ncfadectx* nctx, int iter, fadecb fader, void* curry);
int ncplane_fadein_iteration(struct ncplane* n, struct ncfadectx* nctx, int iter, fadecb fader, void* curry);
void ncfadectx_free(struct ncfadectx* nctx);
DESCRIPTION
ncplane_fadeout, ncplane_fadein, and ncplane_pulse are simple APIs for fading planes in and out. Fades require either RGB support or palette reprogramming support from the terminal (the RGB method is preferred, and will be used whenever possible). The ts parameter specifies the total amount of time for the fade operation. The operation itself is time-adaptive (i.e. if it finds itself falling behind, it will skip iterations; if it is proceeding too quickly, it will sleep).
These are wrappers around the more flexible ncfadectx API. Create an ncfadectx with ncfadectx_setup. The number of possible state changes (iterations) can be accessed with ncfadectx_iterations. A state can be reached with ncplane_fadeout_iteration or ncplane_fadein_iteration. Finally, destroy the ncfadectx with ncfadectx_free.
RETURN VALUES
ncplane_fadeout_iteration and ncplane_fadein_iteration will propagate out any non-zero return value from the callback fader.
BUGS
Palette reprogramming can affect other contents of the terminal in complex ways. This is not a problem when the RGB method is used.
