Animating Width and Height

Animating Width and Height

• Ashley Novak

  I did a bunch of testing. I get it now. The first method is stretching the image but within the boundaries of the image's original width and height.

  By scale-to-fit you mean declare both width and height as auto

  No; set contentWidth="scale-to-fit" and contentHeight="scale-to-fit".

  Then whatever you set width and height to, the backgroundImage will stretch / shrink to fit it.

  Hmmm. So which method is more efficient/recommended
  
  1)
  document["foo"].style.animateProperty(“contentWidth”,”1920px;1980px”,4)
  
  
  2)
  contentWidth="scale-to-fit"
  document["foo"].style.animateProperty(“width”,”1920px;1980px”,4)

  Yes. The signature for this method is described on page Z304. Although not described very well at all :(

  You can also just specify scale-to-fit for those two properties and then animate width and height as per normal.
