public abstract class TimelineEvent
extends Animation
implements Runnable

A TimelineEvent is an abstract class that can perform a certain action after a specific delay. TimelineEvents are added to and executed by a Timeline. Subclasses implement the run() method.

An anonymous inner class can be used in a Scene2D to create a code block that is executed after a delay:

    int delay = 1000; // milliseconds
    addEvent(new TimelineEvent(delay) {
        public void run() {
            // Code to execute after the delay
        }
    });  
    

A TimelineEvent only executes once - if it is in a looping Timeline, it only executes the first time.

Method Detail

updateState

protected void updateState(int animTime)

Description copied from class: Animation

Updates the state based on the animation time, typically from 0 to Animation.getDuration(). Note that the duration can be zero.

Specified by:

updateState in class Animation

Parameters:

animTime - The animation time, typically from 0 to Animation.getDuration(), although an Easing can cause the value to be outside those bounds.

hasExecuted

public final boolean hasExecuted()

run

public abstract void run()

Specified by:

run in interface Runnable
