Description

ClutterBindConstraint is a ClutterConstraint that binds the position or the size of the ClutterActor to which it is applied to the the position or the size of another ClutterActor, or "source".

An offset can be applied to the constraint, to avoid overlapping. The offset can also be animated. For instance, the following code will set up three actors to be bound to the same origin:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12

// source
rect[0] = clutter_rectangle_new_with_color (&red_color);
clutter_actor_set_position (rect[0], x_pos, y_pos);
clutter_actor_set_size (rect[0], 100, 100);

// second rectangle
rect[1] = clutter_rectangle_new_with_color (&green_color);
clutter_actor_set_size (rect[1], 100, 100);
clutter_actor_set_opacity (rect[1], 0);

constraint = clutter_bind_constraint_new (rect[0], CLUTTER_BIND_X, 0.0);
clutter_actor_add_constraint_with_name (rect[1], "green-x", constraint);
constraint = clutter_bind_constraint_new (rect[0], CLUTTER_BIND_Y, 0.0);
clutter_actor_add_constraint_with_name (rect[1], "green-y", constraint);

// third rectangle
rect[2] = clutter_rectangle_new_with_color (&blue_color);
clutter_actor_set_size (rect[2], 100, 100);
clutter_actor_set_opacity (rect[2], 0);

constraint = clutter_bind_constraint_new (rect[0], CLUTTER_BIND_X, 0.0);
clutter_actor_add_constraint_with_name (rect[2], "blue-x", constraint);
constraint = clutter_bind_constraint_new (rect[0], CLUTTER_BIND_Y, 0.0);
clutter_actor_add_constraint_with_name (rect[2], "blue-y", constraint);

The following code animates the second and third rectangles to "expand" them horizontally from underneath the first rectangle:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
 
clutter_actor_animate (rect[1], CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_CUBIC, 250,
                       "@constraints.green-x.offset", 100.0,
                       "opacity", 255,
                       NULL);
clutter_actor_animate (rect[2], CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_CUBIC, 250,
                       "@constraints.blue-x.offset", 200.0,
                       "opacity", 255,
                       NULL);
