This class is not usable as is, and should be subclassed to provide needed behavior.
You must store the created Animation in a variable that lives as long as the animation should run. Otherwise, the Animation object will be garbage-collected and the animation stops.
The figure object used to get needed events, such as draw or resize.
A class that can run a callback when desired events are generated, as well as be stopped and started.
Examples include timers (see TimedAnimation
) and file system notifications.
Whether blitting is used to optimize drawing.
A base class for Animations.

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.
Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)
SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.
All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
