Animated window resize with FXRuby

[Dat Chu]

Hello,

Does anyone know of any prebuilt framework to facilitate animation in
FXRuby (or GTK, or Qt)? I am coming from the web world and don't know
everything about desktop GUI.

I can't seem to find any information on how to make similar animation
like those found in Scriptaculous, Mootools, ....

Any pointer would be appreciated guys.

There's not really anything like that built-in to FXRuby. You can
certainly set up a little timeout loop and gradually change the window
size (i.e. its width and height).

Qt4 QtRuby has Qt::TimeLine for animations that you can use in
conjunction with classes like Qt::GraphicsItemAnimation on a
Qt::GraphicsView canvas, as well as using it with ordinary Qt::Widgets.
