Trident 1.2 official release

April 14th, 2010 | 3 Comments »

It is a great pleasure to announce the availability of the final release or version 1.2 of Trident animation library (code-named Cookie Jar). The major milestone for this release is moving Substance 6.0 to use Trident – along with validating the library performance and flexibility to support a wide variety of UI animations. Trident 1.2 has also added a few new APIs to address a few common application requirements:

  • Refined APIs for stopping timelines

You’re more than welcome to take Trident 1.2 for a ride and see what it can do to add animations to your Swing and SWT applications. To see how Trident is used to drive application animation scenarios, see its use in the following projects:
