Motion in user interfaces April 18, 2019
Motion should be used to add clarity to a user interface, and then sparingly and with nuance. A little bit goes a long way.
Learning Objectives
- define “state” in the context of a user interface
- describe how the effect of animation is created on screens
- differentiate between animation sequences (like cartoons) and animation in interfaces (state transitions)
- create an animated transition in Principle
- animate a screen element in Principle imported from Sketch
- list examples of properties with can be animated in interfaces
- differentiate between system- and user-triggered state changes
- define “easing” in the context of an animation transition
