Introducing QuartzCode - Vector Animation to Code - Published on 10/01/14
Independent developer Wan Ahmad Lutfi today introduces QuartzCode 1.02, his new code generator tool for OS X. QuartzCode is a powerful animation tool that turns vector drawings and animation into Objective C code. With QuartzCode, developers and designers can create new or use existing assets and transform them into complex animations without writing a single code. Supporting Core Animation and UIView block-based code generation, QuartzCode is readable and can be modified in real-time.
Permaisuri, Malaysia - Independent developer Wan Ahmad Lutfi today introduces QuartzCode 1.02, his new code generator tool for OS X. QuartzCode is a lightweight and powerful animation tool that turns vector drawing and animation into Objective C code. This allows users to export code that can be entered directly into Xcode and allows the building of applications.
With QuartzCode, developers and designers create new vector drawings and animation using the tools provided or by utilizing existing assets from SVG or images. To reduce the learning curve, QuartzCode has been instilled with familiar Core Animation properties. Users can create CABasicAnimation or CAKeyframeAnimation using more than 25 animation key-paths supported.
Feature Highlights:
* Comfortable and intuitive User Interface
* Create new or use existing assets from SVG or images
* Generates drawing and animation Objective C code in real-time
* Supports Core Animation and UIView block-based code generation
* Created code is readable and easy to modify
* Utilizes familiar Core Animation properties to reduce learning curve
* Edit and tweak animation in real-time
* Ability to combine or sequence multiple animations
* Ability to observe animations frame-by-frame
* Create Core Animation using CALayer subclass such as CATextLayer, CAShapeLayer, CAGradientLayer, CAReplicatorLayer and CAEmitterLayer
* Ability to create Particle systems
* Creates Chaining Delay Animations
* Ability to animate text glyphs individually
* Custom animation timing function in addition to provided timing functions
* Arrange layers quickly to grid or on path
Users can create a variety of shapes from the basic shape templates provided. To create more advanced shapes, QuartzCode includes vector, pencil, and boolean operations. Edits can be incorporated by using vertex and transform modes. Colors and/or gradients can also be added to the shapes. Additionally, QuartzCode features a Replicator which can create replication effects of its sublayers, including animation. QuartzCode layer hierarchies can be combinations of any layer types, which enables users to create complex layer hierarchies and animation.
QuartzCode supports Core Animation and UIView block-based code generation. Core Animation is created using CALayer subclass, such as CATextLayer, CAShapeLayer, CAGradientLayer, CAReplicatorLayer and CAEmitterLayer. All code generated by QuartzCode is readable, can be modified, and is produced in real-time.
Users can create particle systems in QuartzCode, such as animation of fire, explosions, and moving water. With the ability to use multiple emitter cells in an emitter layer, QuartzCode also allows each emitter cell to have its own image and properties.
Another useful feature of QuartzCode is effect layer. Multiple animations can be chained and applied to effect layer�s sublayers only by changing a few parameter to incorporate a delay effect. Thus, users can produce complex animation by combining different animation key-paths. In addition to delay effect, delay order can change the order of the sublayers' animation and can be a useful tool for animating text glyphs individually.
"QuartCode was created to make Core Animation coding much faster and more fun!" explains independent developer Wan Ahmad Lutfi. "With QuartzCode, developers and designers can easily create complex animations without needing to write a single code. Also, iOS and OS X code is automatically generated on the fly. Creating animation simply couldn't be easier using QuartzCode!"
Device Requirements:
* Mac OS X Mavericks and later
* 11 MB
Pricing and Availability:
For a limited time, QuartzCode 1.02 is only $79.99 USD (regularly priced $99) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Developer Tools category. Review copies are available upon request.
