ChangeSpeed#

Qualified name: manim.animation.speedmodifier.ChangeSpeed

class ChangeSpeed(mobject=None, *args, use_override=True, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: Animation

Modifies the speed of passed animation. AnimationGroup with different lag_ratio can also be used which combines multiple animations into one. The run_time of the passed animation is changed to modify the speed.

Parameters

anim – Animation of which the speed is to be modified.
speedinfo – Contains nodes (percentage of run_time) and its corresponding speed factor.
rate_func – Overrides rate_func of passed animation, applied before changing speed.

Examples

Example: SpeedModifierExample ¶

from manim import *

class SpeedModifierExample(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        a = Dot().shift(LEFT * 4)
        b = Dot().shift(RIGHT * 4)
        self.add(a, b)
        self.play(
            ChangeSpeed(
                AnimationGroup(
                    a.animate(run_time=1).shift(RIGHT * 8),
                    b.animate(run_time=1).shift(LEFT * 8),
                ),
                speedinfo={0.3: 1, 0.4: 0.1, 0.6: 0.1, 1: 1},
                rate_func=linear,
            )
        )

Example: SpeedModifierUpdaterExample ¶

from manim import *

class SpeedModifierUpdaterExample(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        a = Dot().shift(LEFT * 4)
        self.add(a)

        ChangeSpeed.add_updater(a, lambda x, dt: x.shift(RIGHT * 4 * dt))
        self.play(
            ChangeSpeed(
                Wait(2),
                speedinfo={0.4: 1, 0.5: 0.2, 0.8: 0.2, 1: 1},
                affects_speed_updaters=True,
            )
        )

Example: SpeedModifierUpdaterExample2 ¶

from manim import *

class SpeedModifierUpdaterExample2(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        a = Dot().shift(LEFT * 4)
        self.add(a)

        ChangeSpeed.add_updater(a, lambda x, dt: x.shift(RIGHT * 4 * dt))
        self.wait()
        self.play(
            ChangeSpeed(
                Wait(),
                speedinfo={1: 0},
                affects_speed_updaters=True,
            )
        )

Methods

`add_updater`	This static method can be used to apply speed change to updaters.
`begin`	Begin the animation.
`clean_up_from_scene`	Clean up the `Scene` after finishing the animation.
`finish`	Finish the animation.
`get_scaled_total_time`	The time taken by the animation under the assumption that the `run_time` is 1.
`interpolate`	Set the animation progress.
`setup`
`update_mobjects`	Updates things like starting_mobject, and (for Transforms) target_mobject.

Attributes

`dt`
`is_changing_dt`

classmethod add_updater(mobject, update_function, index=None, call_updater=False)[source]#

This static method can be used to apply speed change to updaters.

This updater will follow speed and rate function of any ChangeSpeed animation that is playing with affects_speed_updaters=True. By default, updater functions added via the usual Mobject.add_updater() method do not respect the change of animation speed.

Parameters

mobject (Mobject) – The mobject to which the updater should be attached.
update_function (Updater) – The function that is called whenever a new frame is rendered.
index (int | None) – The position in the list of the mobject’s updaters at which the function should be inserted.
call_updater (bool) – If True, calls the update function when attaching it to the mobject.
