Class PropertyRange

java.lang.Object
  org.jdesktop.animation.timing.interpolation.PropertyRange

public class PropertyRange
extends java.lang.Object

This class is used to hold a property name and a range of values that represent the values that the property can attain over time. The class is used primarily in creating instances of ObjectModifier, which is a TimingTarget implementation that varies the values of the property in the values range over time. Users of this class will either call one of the utility factory methods, to create a simple range whose values will be linearly interpolated between during the animation, or the more detailed constructor that uses KeyFrames for more control over the range. It is also possible to subclass PropertyRange to handle types that have no existing definition.
