export default App;

duration

Specifies how long the animation runs in milliseconds.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 1000

easing

Specifies the easing function of the animation.

Default Value: 'easeOutCubic'

Easing functions specify how the speed of the animation changes over time. The following easing functions are available.

  • easeOutCubic
    The animation starts fast and slows down gradually towards the end.
  • linear
    The animation progresses at a constant pace.

enabled

Enables the animation in the UI component.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

maxPointCountSupported

Specifies how many series points the UI component should have before the animation will be disabled.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 300

If the number of series points in your chart increases over time, animating them may affect UI component performance. In this case, use the maxPointCountSupported property to specify a limit for the number of points. When this limit is exceeded, the animation will be disabled.
