Hi Dean, this sounds awesome, I'm excited! Regarding step timing: while out of the animation scope, I would recommend introducing a global way to pause and control redrawing and reflowing. This would give you total control, not only on animations but everything render. IE had this for a while in some way (yep!), and it is fairly useful: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms534707(v=VS.85).aspx(updateInterval). --------- http://paulbakaus.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/paulbakaus On Thu, Nov 4, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Dean Jackson <dino@apple.com> wrote: > Here's a very brief summary of the discussion about animations at the > meeting today: > > We are going to try to describe a single model for animation for Web > content.
