MotionScope

Explode and explore dimensions in Software Animation. It’s like a console for an engineer, or a histogram for a photographer.

Install

Save a copy of MotionScope.coffee in your projects modules sub-folder.

Usage

Specify the properties of any regular Framer layers you wish to plot.

(require "MotionScope").load((scope) ->
  # `modal` is a layer created elsewhere in the project
  scope.plot(modal, 'y')
  scope.plot(modal, 'scale')
)

Optionally, you can configure the MotionScope graph.

(require "MotionScope").load({
	parent: Scope
  reset: ResetButton
}, (scope) ->
  scope.plot(modal, 'x')
	scope.plot(modal, 'y')
)

The plot method can be configured as well.

(require "MotionScope").load({
	parent: Scope
  reset: ResetButton
}, (scope) ->
  scope.plot(oval, 'opacity', {
  	color: '#FFA29C'
  })
)

MotionScope Options

• parent: pass a Framer layer to use as the MotionScope parent. The graph will be sized to the width and height of the parent layer.
• width, height: set the graph size without add it to a parent layer.
• reset: pass a Framer layer to use as a reset button. Clicking the button will clear the graph.

Plot Options

• name: label for the chart legend. Defaults to the property name.
• color: color for the graph line. Defaults to Utils.randomColor if not specified.
• min, max: sets the extent of the line. If not set, continuously adjusts to the largest and smallest values seen.
