ZIM Updates

ZIM 10.5.4 ZIMIFY UPDATE - IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zimify() to include localToGlobal(), globalToLocal() and localToLocal() methods that retro-override CreateJS versions on MovieClip objects for instance Now, interacting with the clips will work properly when working with Adobe Animate Previously, there were issues with drag, transform, gesture, accessibility, etc. due to stage scaling by Animate export We recommended putting the MovieClip into a ZIM Container This is no longer needed if we zimify with 10.5.4 or beyond in ZIM SHIM Make sure to zimify the parent of the MovieClip as well - as that is a MovieClip too. zimify(myClip); zimify(myClip.parent); // this is the timeline MovieClip ASYNC - IMPROVEMENT Created a https://zimjs.org/cdn/jsonp.php script to help with API calls Example: https://codepen.io/danzen/pen/gNKQYY You can filter a plain JSON response through the jsonp script, for example, like so: var api = "https://swapi.co/api/planets/10/?format=json"; async("https://zimjs.org/cdn/jsonp.php?api="+api+"&callback=async.getData", getData); function getData(data) { zog(data); // data will be the JSON parsed object } Note, the docs show the code for jsonp.php so you can make your own if desired This is working with other people's APIs that are not JSONp format See the docs for working with your own files - which does not need jsonp.php GENERAL Adjusted TextArea to scale properly within scaled container - thanks Bart Libert IMPROVEMENT Remember if scaling after TextArea is made then will need to textArea.resize() Changed all reversable parameters to reversible - thanks Michael Albers BREAK Added onTop parameter to Window and therefore List - defaults true. Set to false to not bring window or list to top of its container when dragging Fixed zim animate() - to ensure multiple protects, loops or rewinds on the same target IMPROVEMENT do not set mouseEnabled of the target to be false animate sets mouseEnabled off for 70 ms at start and then sets to last setting Well, a second concurrent animate was receiving the wrong last setting - this is fixed PATCHED (patches are only in CDN, Docs and TypeScript - not GitHub or NPM) Added items2D and items2DCols for Tile to get read only 2D arrays - thanks Ami Hanya for request Fixed up Pages to properly set up multiple pages - change from 10.5.3 caused glitch - 10.5.3 has been repatched Also adjusted Marquee in 10.5.3 and 10.5.4 to add Pages to the holder which is shifted for the nav Added decimals parameter to game module Timer - patched https://zimjs.org/cdn/game_2.2.js Fixed hov() to not give error if object that has hov is removed from stage and rolled off Fixed animate() start angle on path to match first point's angle when orient is true - potential BREAK but unlikely Adjusted animate looping on drag on path with startPaused true - typo in code. Adjusted percentComplete to start at correct angle if animating along a path and orient is true Added margin parameter at end of Container and Shape cache() method parameters that expands or contracts the cache dimension This will also be available on all subclasses of Container such as Rectangle, Blob, etc. Fixed TextArea in scaled containers in Retina - thanks Bart Libert for the prompting Fixed drag on path when no animation - so object stays on path if path is user adusted and object had not been dragged yet did this by running the drag ticker even before dragged set mouseCheck to true as well as introduced an immediateCheck to percentComplete so setting percentComplete updates pathPercent Fixed dragging on path after shape animating path or updating path with code and update() - use a zimAnimateChanged property on path was already working when manually dragging path as that called a change event which animate() used to update segment ratios Updated Code page, Docs, GitHub, CDN, Templates, TypeScript, SHIM, NPM, MVC files Updated CreateJS to https://zimjs.org/cdn/1.2.1/createjs_min.js and NPM vesion to include broken-image flow-through to ZIM 10.5.3 and beyond

ZIM 10.5.3 FRAME MOUSE POSITION (for Retina) IMPROVEMENT Officially added ZIM Frame mouseX and mouseY properties to capture mouse position including stage scale due to ZIM Retina At any time this can be accessed as frame.mouseX and frame.mouseY A stagemousemove event is used to get these values This can be turned off with the new Frame captureMouse parameter (default is true) Or by setting frame.off("stagemousemove", frame.mouseEvent); Any mouse event object can still capture stageX and stageY but will need to divide these by stage.scaleX and stage.scaleY for Retina Note: stage.mouseX and stage.mouseY should not be used as these did not work on touch screen - if using them, they should be divided by stage scale as well Also note the mouseMoveOutside parameter of Frame to capture rawX and rawY as frame.mouseX and frame.mouseY ACCESSIBILITY - APPLICATION ROLE IMPROVEMENT Changed Accessibility to default to role of application rather than button for ZIM objects other than TextArea, Loader, Dial, Slider, Stepper or Picker This works better on NVDA screen readers as it forces "forms" mode Thanks Nathan and Fiona for the report and debug help Left the default of button for mobile. Accessibility has a new application parameter (default true) This goes after the frame parameter BREAK for any param after (highlights) The application parameter can be set to false to make the default role a button (like before) GENERAL SVGContainer now has showControls and interactive parameters to set all Squiggle, Blob and Rectangle, Circle transforms to these values Thanks Andi Erni for the request Updated ZIM SHIM to include 10.5.3 but also fixed reference to frame.canvas that was missing in 10.5.2 (patched it) and patched this version 10.5.3 PATCHED Adjusted Frame tag mode for dimensioned frame with Retina to accomodate % width style See: https://zimjs.com/templates/tag2.html This needs to be in first stylesheet Retina sets the width style which was overwriting any preset width style So, the original style percentage needs to be applied first then the Retina scale so it is a couple computated values - for a % height setting... use Frame retina:false or request a calculation for % height on the ZIM Slack forum. Added backgroundColor property to Label to get or set background color Also made it so backgroundColor operates on a custom backing if there is one (Thanks Andi Erni for the thought) Adjusted Pages so it works better with a holder and removes pages if transition "none" Thanks Mike Gossland for the find! Patched cdn/1.2.0/createjs_min.js to let broken image urls come through without console error Patched ZIM 10.5.3 to convert these to broken image icons if used Fixed animate() sequenceCall to go at ends of sequences and call at very end of all Made Label change backing with width and height styles - so can use this to change backing width Made Slider accept shadowBlur and shadowColor styles (for its button) Adjusted physics_2.0 and physics_2.1 so follow bounds works with non-centered backgrounds ;-) Created physics_2.2 with better LeaderBoard default font settings to match retina Added an accordionIndex property to List to give the selected item's index inside an accordion This was needed to handle repeated labels inside accordion lists - will be null if no accordion If non-accordion lists have repeated labels, just use the selectedIndex Note - selectedIndex of an accordion is only the index of the items that are showing Added callEvent parameter to Pane hide() that calls "close" event when pane is hidden with method This can be handy to use traditional close event with mouse but then call hide() also with enter key for instance to call the same close event that was set for mouse. Updated the CDN, Docs, GitHub, Code page, TypeScript, NPM, Tips, Templates, Distill Come hang out with us on Slack https://zimjs.com/slack/

ZIM 10.5.2 FOLLOW https://zimjs.com/ten/follow.html - with keys https://codepen.io/danzen/pen/gNKQYY - with press Added follow() method to ZIM Frame - works like follow() in physics - thanks John Smith for the request but can follow any DisplayObject inside a Container - not just on stage Added a followBoundary property to Frame to update the follow boundary in a "resize" event if frame is in "full" mode With physics we were generally forced to make follow move the stage but here we can add the object to a container and make the container move rather than the stage this is a little more conventional as traditionally, the stage does not move. Added a motionController property to any target being controlled by a ZIM MotionController this is used internally by ZIM for follow - but could be generally useful. Added a "follow" value for ZIM MotionController type parameter that keeps obj moving towards pressed position GENERAL IMPROVEMENT - adjusted ZIM MotionController so does not test for object beneath mouse if there are no mouseDownIncludes this was lagging when there are thousands of objects on the stage and was unnecessarily IMPROVEMENT - adjusted hitTests for Point, Reg, Rect, Circle and Path to use a slightly different calculation for Bitmaps and Sprites versus all other DisplayObjects The latter divides by stage scale where the former does not. (patched 10.5.0 and 10.5.1) Changed a few timeout() and mobile() calls to zim.timeout() and zim.mobile() for zns=true setting - thanks Alfred Yim for the report Fixed TransformManager and Transform to properly record last selected if not moved and not flash transform (since 9.5.0 Layer code) Tested to make sure there is a titleBar before setting titleBarPosition in Layer IMPROVEMENT - fixed ZIM animate() series so relative setting uses calculated values Was using last actual target value and this was compounding a slight timing/value error Now, for instance, if wait is added to series, resting place matches desired values exactly see https://zimjs.com/codepen/triangles.html and source for comments... Patched physics_2.0.js to include a frame property (thanks James Barrett for the request) now physics can be transferred from frame to frame IMPROVEMENT the drag() method will need to be reset each time See https://zimjs.com/expand/physics.html for an example where we go from a tag mode to a fit mode and change the frame of the physics object PATCHED - added frame.update() to call when a Frame changes position relative to Browser window for instance if a div to the left has its display set to none then call frame.update(); This will dispatch update events that Loader, TextArea and Tag object receive so they resize() with the proper frame.x and frame.y - thanks Alfred Yim for reporting the issue! Also added frame properties to Loader, TextArea and Tag - if changing frames, set this to the new frame Added frame.mouseX and frame.mouseY - that include scale fix for ZIM Retina Use these to avoid e.stageX/stage.scaleX and e.stageY/stage.scaleY Also added mouseMoveOutside parameter to Frame at end of params before shim Changed default mouseover rollPerSecond from 10 to 20 - the CreateJS default. Adjusted https://zimjs.org/cdn/three_2.0.js to work with ZIM in tag mode Needed to set ThreeJS canvas to position absolute with left and right set to 0px - thanks Yalon for the report Updated: CDN, Docs, Updates, Distill, GitHub, TypeScript, Code Page, Templates, NPM, TIPS

ZIM 10.5.1 Added hardKeyboard parameter (default true) to Keyboard IMPROVEMENT to accept regular keys being pressed and changing selected label Fixed bug in going to second label (also patched 10.5.0) Added endTween() to animate() target to jump right to end of animation and set end properties - thanks Ami Hanya for the idea. This compliments resetTween() and replayTween() which have been recently added to animate() targets as well BREAK - changed Indicator press parameter to interactive to consolidate terms. IMPROVEMENT Fixed StageGL (Frame with gpu:true) to work with retina (patched 10.5.0 as well) Also tidied up stage resize on full in gpu:true so it does not flash with retina turned on (ZIM 10 fix caused this) ZIM SHIM 2 IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/animate.html Updated ZIM SHIM to work with ZIM 10.5.1 and beyond - thanks Amy Rule for the prompting ZIM SHIM now creates a full frame object rather than a simple surrogate frame. This allows ZIM objects relying on Frame resize (TextArea, Loader, etc) to work in Animate Also a few other ZIM objects used Frame methods, properties and events that were missing. Added shim parameter to frame (default null) to handle making a full Frame when the canvas and stage are already made This accepts an object with stage and canvas properties and lets Adobe handle resize

ZIM 10.5.0 CDN UPDATE https://zimjs.org/cdn/ Changed the CDN to zimjs.org/cdn/ with a new naming format The Amazon d309knd7es5f10.cloudfront.net url still works for OLDER versions of ZIM The new naming format uses the directory to keep track of ZIM versions The file names will remain constant as zim.js for minified and zim_doc.js for full So the two main libraries are at: https://zimjs.org/cdn/1.2.0/createjs_min.js https://zimjs.org/cdn/10.5.0/zim.js You are welcome to use these or download versions to your own servers The latest helper libraries have been moved to the new CDN as well See the top of the Docs pages for links Explanation: as we move into more than a million views a week amazon was costing money zimjs.org uses CloudFlare which caches the files at the front edge of the internet cloud! Many other js libraries use CloudFlare too at https://cloudflare.com MARQUEE https://zimjs.com/marquee.html Added a Marquee component to cycle through images and interactive works Uses ZIM Pages and Indicator objects - and a pause/play button Can show ZIM interactive works in banner area! Docs can be found near the bottom of Components LIST PULLDOWN IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/ten/pulldown.html Added pulldown parameter to List which prepares the list to take a height based on a number of items It also hides the background and border Setting this with accordion can expand and contract the list like a pulldown Added open property to List accordion object that starts an accordion open LIST ITEMS https://zimjs.com/explore/pulldown.html Created special List items: Slider, CheckBox, ColorPicker (for now) These are created as List.slider(), List.checkBox(), List.colorPicker() and can be combined with the pulldown arrangement to make a collapsible control panel DOT ANIMATE Updated CreateJS version to include the new TweenJS dot plugin https://zimjs.org/cdn/1.2.0/createjs_min.js This allows animation of properties within properties by using quoted values for the property name so props:{"rotation.x":200} for instance Updated dozens of property assignments within animate() to handle dot property values Note, TweenJS requires an initial . at the start props:{".rotation.x":200} but that is not easy to remember so ZIM allows for both notations. TweenJS also added a plugin for relative animation using "" - ZIM already has that the TweenJS version requires a + or - at the start. ZIM does not require the + Unfortunately, the dot plugin requires the TweenJS version So we have made ZIM convert any relative without a + to having a + which means, we are good to go with or without the + for relative animation props:{".rotation.x":"30"} or props:{".rotation.x":"+30"} will both work REPLAY TWEEN IMPROVEMENT Added resetTween() and replayTween() methods to objects with tweens These will set the object to the tweened property values before the tween started and replay the tween - re-runs the animate() with the same parameters as the last tween Added a clean parameter to animate() that will not clear the tween ids when tween ends the idea being percentComplete will still work - but unfortunately, it does not include the wait time so replayTween() was added if the initial wait time is desired GENERAL Added makeIcon() to Frame to make the ZIM TEN Z icon (360 byte customizable vector) Added animateReturn() method on target of animate() that works when animating on path to return target to the start if rewind is set to true IMPROVEMENT - fixed Blob and Squiggle due to change in center() and centerReg() - was shifting points IMPROVEMENT - Fixed Slider to capture stage variable when track is pressed - was needing button pressed first since Retina Fixed negative sign on list hierarchy - it was shifting too low on retina Fixed Dynamo and Accelerator pause to not break if paused the same way twice - it now ignores the second time Made Dynamo remember change in percentSpeed when paused so unpausing is at new speed Added read/write sensitivity property to ZIM Swiper Added conversion from rgb() and rgba() to hex and string to convertColor() - thanks Ikki for reminding us! also made conversion to string output hex number if no matching string color Fixed Label center on backing - had removed code there for some reason in 10.3.0 - look back and see why Also tidied up bounds of label with scaled backing - thanks Bart Libert for the report Fixed hitTestPoint, hitTestReg, hitTestRect and hitTestCircles to work properly with Retina - thanks again Bart Libert Made ColorPicker force upperCase for selectedColor Fixed List indenting issue with align left or right with both custom and label items Added checkBox parameter to styles for List Adjusted animate() sequence to work properly with pauseAnimate() previously, the sequence was run by timeouts initially that were not part of the pauseAnimate system so startPaused:true for instance would let the timeouts run and the sequence would run all at the same time when pauseAnimate(false) was called. So changed sequence to use wait animation and then wait again if a wait was in the sequence this ties sequence into the animation chain from the start IMPROVEMENT Adjusted ZIM Label to better work with ZIM Retina. The stage scale was affecting the placement of createjs and perhaps canvas text relative to bounds Reworked how the Label centers and positions as well as on backing and backgrounds Changed Tabs and Stepper to center label Adjusted docs on Label to read the correct "top" as valign default ZIM strays from HTML tables on this with a default left and top alignment for text However for Buttons, etc. the default is center Buttons support ZIM VEE (Pick / zik) on main colors - see docs This was primarily for alternating colors on Lists for instance PATCHED - added getColorAt(x,y) method to a Bitmap that returns the rgba() at the x, y location Fixed dispose for Window with interactive false - was giving a Ticker remove warning - thanks Frank Los Fixed setMask() to work properly with Triangles - changed the code to work with all situations Fixed StageGL (Frame with gpu:true) to work with retina Also tidied up ZIM 10 fix so stage resize on full in gpu:true does not flash with retina turned on Adjusted hitTests for Point, Reg, Rect, Circle and Path to use a slightly different calculation for Bitmaps and Sprites versus all other DisplayObjects. UPDATED: CDN, Docs, Updates ;-), Code Page, Templates, Distill, TEN page, TypeScript, GITHUB and NPM ADJUSTED: docs text version, view code, zoo, distill to work with new CDN

ZIM 10.4.1 Added an immediate parameter to ZIM timeout pause() method - works when unpausing. Added reset parameter to ZIM interval and timeout pause() methods This comes after the immediate parameter. If both these are set to false (defaults) then unpausing will run the time left after the pause The immediate true will unpause and run immediately. The reset true will unpause with the full interval time left. Also fixed paused(false) so that if already running it will clear the last interval In animate(), moved relative property assignment to after the wait - thanks Yalon for the prompting This means that relative values ie. props:{x:"100"} will work better in animate series. They will be relative to the end of the last animation rather than relative to the value at the start of the series Fixed dashed on Button border to work - lost it when separating border from background to handle shadow better Adjusted Pages so it adds pages to the provided holder Adjusted Pages so addPage and removePage changes pages array property Updated ZIM Workshops to 10.4.0 - https://zimjs.com/teach.html ZIM WS - Canvas ZIM WS - Coding ZIM WS - Game ZIM WS - Asteroids ZIM WS - Meme ZIM WS - Physics - TODO PATCH: ZIM windowWidth() and windowHeight() have been adjusted to take into account Chrome on iOS which was not reporting a change on orientation - thanks Ross Isenegger for the catch This meant orientation was not triggering properly as we used the width and height to determine orientation There was also an issue with delay still not catching some resize values We have implemented a three step process for mobile: On resize, dimensions are checked [1] right away and [2] at 30ms automatically. There is also a delay parameter that has a default of 50ms so an additional check will be done [3] at 50ms or at whatever this parameter is set Setting the delay to 0 would turn off checks [2] and [3] Adjusted hitTests for Point, Reg, Rect, Circle and Path to use a slightly different calculation for Bitmaps and Sprites versus all other DisplayObjects. Updated ZIM CodePen Examples on Examples page Rocket, Zdog, GitHub stars, Tiles, etc. Updated CDN, GitHub, Code Page, Templates, NPM, Distill, TypeScript (no changes), Slack

ZIM 10.4.0 TEN PAGE https://zimjs.com/ten.html Updated TEN page to show links to various updates to ZIM TEN LIST WITH CHECKBOX https://zimjs.com/ten/listcheckbox.html Added checkBox parameter to List to use checkboxes in list - thanks Dale789 for the prompting! Added checkBoxes property to List to give a read only array of checkBoxes Added a checkBox property to a list item like list.selected.checkBox to give access to an item checkBox Added the following three methods to manipulate checkBoxes: setCheck(index, type) - set the CheckBox at an index to true or false (the type parameter) setChecks(type) - set all CheckBoxes to true or false (the type parameter) returns object for chaining getCheck(index) - get the checked value of the CheckBox at an index Added tap parameter to CheckBox to activate on tap - good for List and Window when dragging Added toggle(type) to CheckBox and toggled property - same as setChecked and checked but consistent with others PATH TRAVERSE https://zimjs.com/ten/traverse.html Added a traverse() method to Blob and Squiggle to animate an object between points of the path Added a "traversed" event that is dispatched when a traverse() ends To traverse backwards past start or forward past end of Blob use two traverse calls Thanks KV for the experimentation and requests. IMPROVEMENT Fixed up animate() along path so it properly resets internal pathRatio and tween with stopAnimate() called this is important when doing multiple animations along path. Set this to reset only with path or dynamic animation - watch out for color animation Color seems to work but may have issues with multiple color animations on same object THREE - RETINA - IMPROVEMENT ZIM three_2.0.js has launched to work with retina The namespace is now optional and works like new Three(); See https://codepen.io/zimjs/pen/qGPVqO PIZZAZZ 3 - RETINA - IMPROVEMENT Adjusted pizzazz_03 to work with retina https://zimjs.com/patterns.html Tidied up setMask() for retina - was not working if mask had same parent as object. This fixed the ProgressBar() in retina This is an odd localToLocal issue since retina - we will keep an eye on it. ANIMATE REPLAY TWEEN - PATCH Added a clean parameter to animate() that can be set to false to not delete the tween when done This allows percentComplete to be adjusted and target.pauseAnimate(false) to play tween Note - percentComplete does not include waited once waited period has passed So to restart a tween that has a wait use replayTween - see below. Added target resetTween() and replayTween() resetTween() will reset the properties of the target to the original values before the last tween replayTween() will reset the properties and play the last tween Note - only replays the last tween of a series and probably does not work on sequence animation GENERAL Fixed zta() so it does not break in IE11 - as there is no console.table() PATCHES Patched animate() in series mode to make sure last animate object call is called - thanks Yalon for the find Patched animate() series to remove first animation in animate series when a wait is present this was causing subsequent series animations to not have the correct idSet id for stopping Made animate() override any paused properties so not unpausing Sprites to cause CreateJS Sprite animation Tested animation page and NIO dynamic animations BREAK - adjusted centerReg() and center() to center on the origin of a container that has no bounds set Made Label() text parameter accept ZIM PICK object Fixed Pane() close if no stage to update BREAK fixed width and height, widthOnly and heightOnly to be absolute value (positive) if scale is negative (strange we missed this for so long!) Fixed Tile() mirrorH and mirrorV and align, valign with scaled objects Fixed Frame() loadAssets queue version of "assetload" event - there was a typo in the event dispatch - working now... Added a controls property to transformControls that references the controls Added data parameter to Loader save() method - set to true to return Base64 string instead of file saving image - thanks Ami Hanya Adjusted Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Squiggle and Blob to clone gradients (when using direct linearGradient() and radialGradient() methods) Fixed Keyboard < > x vertical spacing Fixed Keyboard cursor placement - was using globalToLocal on CreateJS Text field - which is broken in retina Fixed Label backing so that pattern gets saved under backing property and properly centered when label is centered Also removed stage scale setting in Pizzazz 3 that was incorrectly added to retina Updated ZIM Docs, Code page, Distill, Bubbling Videos, Templates, GitHub, NPM, TypeScript Updated GitHub ReadMe intro page - please STAR us on GitHub if you can - thanks - we are trying to build awareness. Whew - thank goodness for Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/zimjs - never any pressure - using ZIM is the biggest reward!

ZIM 10.3.1 Added strokeObj parameter to ZIM Shapes Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Blob, Squiggle which defaults to {caps:"butt", joints:"miter", miterLimit:10, ignoreScale:false} https://zimjs.com/explore/strokes.html Added radialGradient() and linearGradient() methods to Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Blob These just call the colorCommand versions which are still there Note - must update about 100 Rectangle, Circle and Triangle occurences in ZIM otherwise get a recursive style error in group style Note - to apply gradients to the border use the borderColorCommand (we do this less often) IMPROVEMENT Fixed setMask on ZIM shapes to handle masking objects in non 0,0, scaled and rotated containers Note: getConcatenatedMatrix().decompose() must have scales divided by stage scale in retina setting Cloned label backing from STYLE so can set same backing on multiple labels - thanks Valeria Valoueva for the prompting Added still parameter to reg() to set x and y so object does not move when reg is set - thanks Vishwas Gagrani for suggestion Fixed up missing parameters at end of Blob and Squiggle clone IMPROVEMENT Removed extra space at end of List when removeAt() is used IMPROVEMENT Fixed up List accordion setting indent glitch since 10.0.1 - thanks Alicia Martin for the find We had added a backing rectangle for the list elements and this broke indenting after a second time (put a backing on a backing!) Added shiftHorizontal and shiftVertical to STYLE of Button - goes through to the label parameters... Updated CDN, Distill, TypeScript, NPM, Templates, Code Page, Docs

ZIM 10.3.0 RETINA - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/retina.html Added a retina parameter (default true) to scale the stage with devicePixelRatio Scaling the stage rather than the canvas works very well for scaling vectors up This is the technique that Adobe Animate uses - see the next section for issues. ADOBE ANIMATE - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/animate.html ZIM now provides a ZIM SHIM that lets ZIM work within Adobe Animate without ZIM Frame. This is a standard Animate Publishing template with a few lines of ZIM code added. ZIM was mostly supported in Animate but now, various issues below have been solved. Adobe Animate scales the stage - which affects globalToLocal, localToGlobal, localToLocal. ZIM now overrides these with fixes and dozens of changes have been made as follows: 1. Basically localToGlobal needs its resulting point to be divided by the stage scaleX and scaleY. globalToLocal needs its input point multiplied by the stage scaleX and scaleY localToLocal needs to call these - but not the GlobalToLocal if the object is on the stage directly - sigh. 2. BREAK Mouse even object e.stageX, e.stageY, e.rawX, e.rawY need to be divided by the stage scaleX and scaleY. 3. stage.getObjectUnderPoint() needs to use the x and y multiplied by stage scale unless you are using e.stageX and e.stageY which would normally be divided by stage scale so the result is you can pass e.stageX and e.stageY directly in to getObjectUnderPoint without any changes 4. Adjusted scaleTo() to assume stage is scale of 1 with stage.width and stage.height matching what is set. 5. Shapes are still positioned as if on an unscaled stage for hitTests. So any x and y values need to be multiplied by the stage scale before doing a globalToLocal into the shape to counter the globalToLocal expecting a 1 scale stage. 6. getConcatenatedMatrix() needs to have resulting values divided by stage scale OTHER ADOBE ISSUES 7. The CreateJS MovieClip does not have the ZIM fixes to globalToLocal, localToGlobal and localToLocal So create a ZIM Container with bounds of the MovieClip and add the MovieClip to the container. From then on, use the ZIM Container to drag, transform, hitTest, etc. 8. Adobe Animate is running an older version of CreateJS that does not automatically recalculate (previously specified) bounds when set to null. This causes Tab heights to miscalculate which effects List, etc. So adjusted Tabs to test for old CreateJS and not expect bound recalculation. 9. There seems to be a problem with hitArea (expand()) on cached objects so adjusted use one or the other SQUIGGLE AND BLOB PATH - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/hittestpath.html More updates to path control to help out with Shape Tween which was launched in 10.2.0: 1. Added addPoint(), addPoints() and interpolate() methods to squiggle and blob To add a point at a percentage, or add a number of points between points Or get the data for any number of points - used by hitTestPoint interpolate could be used to set dynamic bounds on Blob and Squiggle which would lead to setting a drag Boundary - like the general drag() has. So look for this in future versions of ZIM. 2. We could shape tween between shapes with a different number of points but for now, use the addPoint() manually so the number of points are equal. This will usually result in better shape tweens than trying to guess where to automatically add a point. But we may look into how that might be done via an algorithm. 3. Added hitTestPoint(num) to do a hitTest of any object shape along a Squiggle or Blob path! 4. Adjusted the editPoints parameter so true adds points only to the edge. Followed this amazing interactive tutorial - thanks Gabi https://codepen.io/enxaneta/post/how-to-add-a-point-to-an-svg-path When we do, it adds the point and adjusts the points next to it - for no overall path adjustment. Thanks Sam Van Herck for the promptings. If you want the original adding points anywhere - use editPoints:"anywhere" At which point, it adds a point with controlType "none". Added two properties to adjust accuracy vs. speed of adding points: addPointFactor - (default 20) used when placing new points along edge (editPoints is true) divides the distance between points by this amount - the smaller the more accurate but also slower addMinDistance - (default 15) edge press needs to be within this distance to add a point to the edge GENERAL Added offStage parameter to drag() - set to true to be able to drag the object off stage - thanks Shammi for the idea! Adjusted Stage and StageGL to accept a canvas tag as well as the traditional canvas tag ID. Added rgb and rgba support to ColorPicker - thanks Ami Hanya for the promptings The rgba alpha now adds a start alpha for startBackgroundColor - if rgba is used in a color list the alpha is ignored Added rectIntersect(a,b,margin) function to code module which returns true if rectangles intersect Added boundsAroundPoints(points) function to code module to get a rectangle around an array of points These are used by Blob and Squiggle and hitTestPath Fixed Blob "circle", "rectangle", "triangle" points parameter values to use radius setting as well. Fixed "rectangle" to be centerReg() for Blob IMPROVEMENT Fixed slight spacing issue with hitTestGrid() IMPROVEMENT Undecided how to treat setting bounds width or height to 0 it means that width and height can't be set as they adjust the scale and we divide by 0 So adjusted Tabs to overwrite the width if width is 0 Added blur event to Window to stop drag if browser window loses focus - thanks Ami Hanya To turn this on, set the List or Window cancelCurrentDrag parameter to true Seems that maybe mobile was not handling transform controls properly due to getObjectUnderPoint test IMPROVEMENT So removed this requirement for mobile - means objects overlayed on transforms may trigger transforms on This was a rare issue and more of a perfectionist fix... The getObjectUnderPoint is working in a simple case on mobile but not in the complexities of transform(). Adjusted drag() slidestop event to not trigger if object is just clicked on and has not been moved - thanks Frank Los for the report. PATCHES - added support for receiving SVG path format in the ZIM Squiggle and Blob points parameter Adjusted animate() drag for path with Squiggle and Blob according to the technique found here https://codepen.io/eliCrow/pen/MLdddR See the ZIM version: https://codepen.io/zimjs/pen/GLLvoP automatically set ease to "linear" when dragging on Blob or Squiggle - it is the only ease setting that works fixed TextArea, Tag and Loader to scale and place properly with retina - CreateJS DOMElement was scaling the tags when the stage scaled Tried to fix the outline property of Label - since it is a CreateJS object, the localToGlobal is off - may have to recode for exotic label settings Fixed Label outline parameter to work with labelWidth and labelHeight set - thanks Ami Hanya for pointing it out Patched Timer in a few places for game_2.0 with respect to ending time Updated SVGContainer to set splitTypes default false like the docs say Made Waiter dispose() remove waiter from stage - thanks Ami Hanya Fixed up Distill to work with centering with STYLE - zob() in distill needs to be kept up-to-date (was missing something we added for STYLE and ZIMON) Fixed Pick class to properly work with Distill - needed to record static methods being used Changed obj.setBounds() to obj._bounds = null; to support pre version 1 CreateJS code (like current Animate export) Updated CDN, GitHub, Distill, Code page, Templates, TypeScript, NPM, Bubbling vids, Site, Tips, Social Media, Blog, Promo Ads.

ZIM 10.2.0 ZIMON See https://zimjs.com/zimon/ Similar to JSON, ZIMON stands for ZIM Object Notation It turns any object to a string using ZIMON.stringify(object) It turns a ZIMON string back into and object using ZIMON.parse(string) The object can be on its own or inside an array [] or an object literal {} These can be nested and filled with any type of object (that is prepared**) ** ZIMONON (default false) must be set to true to properly ZIMON.stringify() this prevents the slight memory cost if not using ZIMON (95% of the time) KEY An optional key object can be used to specify the scope of the class and to specify which properties to store for objects made from a class. The scope must be a string accessible from where you stringify - it can contain dots (.) The key can be passed as the second parameter to ZIMON.stringify(). The key is sent in the ZIMON string and nothing extra is needed when parsing. PURPOSE The purpose is similar to JSON - to save to localStorage or databases or share between languages. Indeed, the final ZIMOM format is JSON. Like JSON, ZIMON can be used outside of ZIM and outside JavaScript if implemented in another language. See https://github.com/danzen/zimon/ for generic JS code to port to other languages. ** PREPARED OBJECTS Any objects NOT supported by JSON must be prepared so objects other than string, number, array, object literal, boolean or null need to have the following: 1. A type property that matches the class name as a string 2. An arguments property that holds an array of the arguments passed to make the object The ZIM Objects are already prepared - so no extra work is required See ZIMON in use here in an updated version of https://zimjs.com/iso/ ZIMON - adjusted zob() to record arguments of any class when ZIMONON is true SHAPE TWEEN IMPROVEMENT See: https://zimjs.com/animation/shapetween.html ZIM now supports built in animation from one Squiggle to another or one Blob to another This is built in to animate() as a convenience property called shape: squiggle.animate({shape:secondSquiggle}, 1000); There is also a blobShift convenience property that cycles the target points (positive or negative) blob.animate({shape:secondBlob, blobShift:2}, 1000); The Blobs or Squiggles need to have the same number of points BLOB BASIC SHAPES IMPROVEMENT See: https://zimjs.com/animation/shapetween.html ZIM Blobs points parameter now accepts shape values of "circle", "rectangle", "triangle" or a custom ZIM Circle, Rectangle or Triangle object to match. This makes it easier to shape tween, path animating/dragging/labelling, etc. with basic shapes GENERAL Added expand to STYLE functions Adjusted animate to properly represent the percentComplete property on the target. IMPROVEMENT This needed to be applied after animation starts to catch rewind percentage, etc. See https://zimjs.com/explore/squigglepart.html added a read-only adjusted property to Triangle as to what the adjust parameter was set at IMPROVEMENT added {passive:false} to zil() events to avoid another Chrome protective console warning (sigh) added a series type to series functions noted that header('Content-type: text/javascript'); needs to be added to PHP calling async again to avoid a new warning in Chrome console (sigh) Fixed internal id number in SVGContainer to work properly with Distill Fixed doc on LabelToPath so showPath is true to start Fixed Toggle("ON") example to Toggle({label:"ON"}) and took away selected property - use text property instead as read-only what text is selected BREAK IMPROVEMENT Dozens of circle component parts were adjusted to accommodate new percent parameter in Circle IMPROVEMENT Tidied up hov() mouseovers and cursor settings Updated CDN, Templates, Distill, Code Page, TypeScript, NPM Bubbling videos, blog post and social media coming soom

ZIM 10.1.0 ZIM TEN SITE The ZIM TEN site is finished and has been well received. A few logos on secondary pages are still the last ZIM logo. We will get to those soon. There were a few overlaps on Mobile - if you see anything, let us know at https://zimjs.com/slack - thanks to Jade for catching the glitches! GAME MODULE - VERSION 2 https://zimjs.com/iso/ Updated Game Module to 2.0 - and added the Game Module to bottom of Docs. You still need to import (script tag) the game_2.0.js file to use. Added Board(), Person(), Orb(), Tree(), Timer() and Scorer() classes. They let you make tile games in top or isometric view. A relatively comprehensive example is at https://zimjs.com/iso/ There is not much of a game there but it uses most of the parts. This is somewhat based on https://zimjs.com/carboon/ which has NOT been updated to the new Game module - but shows potential. IMPROVEMENT The Docs now include the GAME module at the bottom in purple. The Board class is quite well featured with over 20 parameters and more than 60 properties and methods. It is designed to optionally work with path finding such as EasyStar. The board supports info that can be bigger than the board. Then a camera can be moved with swiping or arrows. Pieces can be moved around the board with keys or with pathfinding. Advanced filters on data, color, icons, items and rows is available for finding random tiles, keying to certain tiles, removing certain items, etc. Game Module: PATCHED - LeaderBoard colors to match color being font and backgroundColor being shape. BREAK Added backdrop to LeaderBoard that closes LeaderBoard if clicked off LeaderBoard Added multiple domain support when signing up for LeaderBoard - just use commas between domains CodePen is running pens on different domains so can try: cdpn.io,s.codepen.io for domain. STYLE FOR CONTROLS IMPROVEMENT STYLE has been added to Pages(), Layout(), Grid(), Guide(), Tile(), Pen(), Emitter(), Scroller(), and Dynamo() Here is our test page: https://zimjs.com/test/styles.html Also added loc functionality for STYLE in general STYLE = {loc:10} // will put everything at 10 - or target type or group, etc. STYLE = {loc:{x:10, y:10}} // will put everything at 10, 10 ZIM NPM Added ZIM and CreateJS to NPM - Node Package Manager Use with Browserify to make Browser ready See https://zimjs.com/npm.html ZIM MVC Added a template for ZIM Model View Controller See https://zimjs.com/mvc.html GENERAL Added duplicate() chainable method to clone() and copy any custom properties - thanks Ami Hanya for the suggestion Fixed SVGContainer and Circle to show up properly when viewing the code from the Docs. Added isometric swiping to Swipe as fourth parameter to work with Game Module Board({isometric:true}) Made hov() automatically set cur() and set cur("default") when hov(-1) IMPROVEMENT Fixed pages jumping to left when going back to landscape on apple ipad - thanks Frank Los for prompting Fixed physics when dispose() and go to make a new Physics() Fixed Physics noDrag() when already dragging - thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting Added index property to Pages - that gives the index of the current page in pages fixed contact() to work on new physics when previous physics is disposed will still need to reset contact() on new physics BREAK - for Toggle(), removed toggle.selected and changed toggle.text to show selected text or "on", "off" if no Label IMPROVEMENT Fixed cloning of Tile - was removing first object as we tried to let objects with ZIK clone with ZIK Solution was to clone objects having a clone but not cloning ZIK objects. Added loc to Distill custom select functions - caused it to be missing in customize feature for docs This has been a large undertaking over the last month... well and five years. Your support on Patreon at https://patreon.com/zimjs is always appreciated. We were dinged for a $200 bill from Amazon with 5 Million views a day. So we are thinking of moving the CDN to CloudFlare - we would keep the Amazon as well for legacy.

ZIM 10.0.1 PROTOTYPE CONTROL STYLES Prototyping adding controls to STYLE - the first test is with Tile. Added a delayPick style to let Tile choose the value rather than STYLE on the object For instance, passing [red, green, blue] to a Circle would pick the color randomly but adding a Circle to a tile gets only one styled circle - so the whole tile would be that random colored circle Adding delayPick:true to the circle style will let the Control using the object make the selection This will be handy for Emitter, Pen, etc. Added a percent parameter to ZIM Circle that makes a Circle have a percent arc. So new Circle({percent:50}) is a semi-circle with bounds of the semi-circle The registration point stays the center of the circle https://zimjs.com/explore/circleArcs.html Added spin() method to Physics objects this is a one-time turning force like an impulse is a one-time linear force To apply a constant turning force, use torque() in a Ticker or keydown event, etc. https://zimjs.com/explore/spin.html Fixed Physics to work with scroll and follow using drag() - already was working with controls but not drag. Added pointsAdjusted property to Squiggle and Blob to change rotated or scaled points to non-rotated and non-scaled IMPROVEMENT Added normalize parameter to Squiggle and Blob update() method to update to normalized points must do this after rotating or scaling a point and then expecting manual updates on points otherwise if just animating rotation or scale of points do not need to set normalize true (just leave parameter out) Fixed bounds of cloned scaled Bitmap - was cloning width and height rather than bounds.width and bounds.height - thanks Ami Hanya Made Blob showControls param and method work when interactive false IMPROVEMENT Fixed adding points to blob when showControls is false - it remakes blob and was using showControls parameter value rather than _controls dynamic value Added faint background to custom Tabs and List elements so selected index works for whole tab area not just directly on the custom item - thanks Racheli Golan https://zimjs.com/test/listAlign.html Made Tabs and List align and valign work properly with objects that are not top left registration point - and handles align of scaled custom objects - thanks Ami Hanya Fixed transformControls.update() to work after pos() - pos was using CreateJS getTransformedBounds() and that was setting some sort of matrix that mixed up transform Fixed transformControls.update() to add controls on top of object - was going one back since 9.5 update... Fixed pressup on controls to remove custom cursors - lost a stage.update() somewhen. Adjusted Guide to show pixels on start when percent parameter is true Fixed Sprite loopCount and call to work properly - animate() was reading paused property of Sprite as true and not paying attention to loop count Adjusted Accessibility html tags in behind to be rgba(0,0,0,.01) in color to remain hidden when in tag scaling mode Fixed Tile to work with negative scale objects this lets Tiles have rows reversed or be fully reversed as follows: https://zimjs.com/explore/tileflip.html PATCHED - added setting scrollX and scrollY to 0 for fit, full, outside modes This seems to solve the issue on iPad when changing orientation - it was left scrolled! Despite never scrolling - sigh. Updated TypeScript, Templates, Code Page, CDN, Docs and Updates ;-)

ZIM TEN 10 - adds 29k ZIM 10 offers a more integrated Physics and a formalized Pick() class for ZIM VEE dynamic parameters. A new SVGContainer class lets you convert SVG to ZIM Blob, Squiggle, Rectangle and Circle objects - thanks KV for the help! There is a new site ;-) with TEN sections that highlight types of things that can be made with ZIM. Specific video entries for each doc element are under way. PHYSICS - IMPROVEMENT See: https://zimjs.com/physics/ Integrated Physics into ZIM DisplayObjects and the Docs. Still need to import Box2D and the ZIM physics module - updated to version 2. Making a physics object and mapping a ZIM object is no longer needed. var circle = new Circle().center().addPhysics(); will create a default world and drop a circle in it! Access the physics object with circle.physics Or premake the world with new Physics() - to customize gravity, borders, scroll, etc. The addPhysics() lets you set a bunch of parameters about the body. Access the physics body with circle.body DisplayObject Methods: A set of methods are added to the DisplayObject when physics is in place: impulse(), force() and torque() methods to push objects around and spin them. impulse() is a one time push like shooting a pool ball force() is a force over time like gravity or wind and is applied in a Ticker, etc. torque() will rotate or spin the object around its center The control() method will let keyboard keys move the object. The follow() method will let the stage follow the object when the Physics scroll parameter is set to true Contact can be tested for with contact() and contactEnd() each receives a callback function that is provided with the other contacting object and body Physics Methods: The physics class has a join() method that can join objects in a variety of physics joints. The physics class has a drag() method to specify which objects are draggable. There is a debug() method to see the physics world behind ZIM. The world can be set up to be bigger than the frame and scroll to follow an object. PICK Added a Pick() class to featured code module This takes the place of zik() when processing ZIM VEE values. ZIM VEE is so handy that a more generic class was created to share with the world of coding Pick() accepts parameters for a series, an array for randomly picked, a range object for a range or a function that returns a value The Pick object has a choose() method that is used internally - but can be used by coders in general. There is also a chainable num() method that lets you set the number of choices The Pick object also has a loop() method so you can loop through the options getting the next picked option each time. If you have an array and want a series you can use JS6 Spread ... or use new Options(series([your array])); ZIM Pick is a stand-alone class that can be copied and used in other languages for delayed parameters. SVG CONTAINER Added SVGContainer class - that turns SVG into ZIM Squiggles or Blob paths Thank you to KV from our Slack team https://zimjs.com/slack for the help on this! The tech is still in experimental stage but will translate most SVG - no CSS on SVG... The paths can then be used to animate along, drag along, make a LabelOnPath, etc. Also consider svgToBitmap() if you are just wanting to view an SVG file in ZIM HIERARCHY Added a zim Hierarchy() class to accommodate nested data. This is used by the accordion but could be used in making a "Mind Map" or a Tree interface, etc. The Hierarchy class comes with handy methods to traverse a hierarchy. This is similar to DOM processing but uses Object literals and as such, can store any Object LIST ACCORDION See: https://zimjs.com/ten/accordion.html Added an accordion parameter to List to handle expanding and collapsing sections to a List. Uses ZIM Hierarchy for creating and tracking the nesting. TIP Added a Tip() class under components just after Toggle. Tip() is a Label that has show() and hide() added to it Tip will hide automatically 2000 ms after showing - or whatever you pass in as a time. Tip also has align, valign and margin, marginH, marginV to easily position based on a target There is also an outside parameter you can set to position outside a target Tip is added to the stage - initially it was added to the target but the target might be rotated, etc. Thanks Ami Hanya for the requestion for Toast ;-) GENERAL Added enabled property to List Added selectedRollBackgroundColor and selectedRollColor to Tabs, List, Pad - sigh BREAK. These default to rollBackgroundColor and rollColor Added dampKeyup to MotionController and dampKeyup property to control the damping on the Accelerator when keyup is used in MotionController. See: https://zimjs.com/explore/sidescroller.html Added expand to Window overlay rather than black with alpha .01 Made loop() work on an HTMLCollection (it already works on a NodeList) Added q, r, s, t points to ZIM Point - used with SVG - Cubic Beziers and Arc Added addChar(char) and removeChar() to Keyboard() Added x and y to rot() to rotate around any point (relative to the container) Added event object to hotSpot click - also added callOver and callOut parameters Added "myCanvasAlternative" system to show alternative content if no canvas or to screen readers and possibly search engine indexing Added hotSpots property to HotSpots which is an array of HotSpot objects Fixed sink to work with new Emitter system (particles container independent of emitter position) Adjusted Tile so it does not clone first item but rather uses item passed in to Tile. setting slider enable false does not remove cursor to start setting animate of color:[blue, green, red] does not work *** patches Adjusted cloning - to initially only copy matrix if shape or not a ZIM object but realized that that lost cloning of x, y, scale and skew so backed out of that change. Added buttonDown property to Tabs and itemDown property to List to get currently pressed item. Added getItemIndex(item) method to List Added clamp parameters to Proportion, ProportionDamp and Parallax defaults to true Set this to false to get values outside min and max range - thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting Adjusted scrollTop on Frame to default to false - this was for older iPhones - live version 5 - and does nothing otherwise It was reported that it might mess up mobile when tag mode is scrolled to the bottom - so we have defaulted it to false. Fixed stopAnimate() so it works with drag:true setting Fixed Blob controlLength parameter - was not using parameter value - now it is! Made Squiggle and Blob move parameter only stop overall dragging when set to false - that is what was intended Passed a CreateJS tick object to any function added to Ticker with add() this gives delta, time, timeStamp, etc. - thanks Alfred Yim for the prompting! Ticker.raw() functions receive a DOMHighResTimeStamp Fixed Tile to properly not clone if clone:false is set - thanks Racheli Golan for the find. This was introduced initially in 10 for ZIM Shapes accepting ZIM VEE for size and color - we mixed up a conditional and it is now patched. Adjusted Blob to properly close path so there is no gap on thick borders Controls were hiding behind transform objects since updates in 9.5 This has been fixed but should be monitored further. NOTE - as of 2/26/2019 SVGContainer has been updated - thanks KV for all the testing and updates on that. Here is a mess of an example: https://zimjs.com/explore/svgcontainer2.html Note - currently it does not do arcs nor does it use styles. Note - there are a few differences we are still working on so expect another patch. Diffences have been patched as of 3/1/2019 Also added label property to end of Sprite parameters This will stop the sprite on the label for texture packer approach See https://zimjs.com/explore/fruit.html SVGContainer() and svgToBitmap() now handle remote SVG, SVG tag and SVG string as input TypeScript, Templates, Distill, Bubbling, Code page, have all been updated. Blog and Social Media launch, still to come.

ZIM 9.5.1 Fixes for zns=true - various colors and objects were missing the zim namespace within ZIM. Thank Alfred Yim for the report. Adjustments to the Keyboard were made to handle no labels provided (thanks Ami Hanya for the find) Added startPaused and mouseMoveOutside to Parallax as well as a paused property and pause(state) method Thanks Frank Los for the prompting

ZIM 9.5.0 LAYER https://zimjs.com/explore/layer.html Added a Layer component that provides a Container with transform controls ZIM transform() objects have their mousechildren turned off so they can be dragged and transformed. This means there can be no interactivity inside the transformed object. IMPROVEMENT Layer provides a solution to nest transformed objects in transformable containers. It does so by providing a titleBar that can be used to turn on and off the transform of the container and allow its contents to be transformed when the transform controls of the Layer are turned off. This is more than just hiding the transform tools but rather removing and adding them. Thank you, Stefan Soljemo for the suggestion on Slack https://zimjs.com/slack The Layer titleBar will always remain visible on the stage If the Layer is moved (not by its titleBar) so that the titleBar hits the edge, then the titleBar will become anchored to the edge (unless anchor is set to false) This creates an independent titleBar that can be moved to any location. The titleBarPos() method can also be used to separate the titleBar at any time. Drop the titleBar on the top left corner of the Layer or doubleClick it to snap it back on to the layer EMITTER - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/2018/slack.html Changed Emitter to emit to a particles container BREAK - this gets added right under the emitter This makes the emitter be moveable without moving all the particles that have already been emitted. KEYBOARD - IMPROVEMENT Made Keyboard work with center and right aligned and scaled Labels as well as backgroundColor and backing and padding. Turned off resizing the keyboard on show(). You will need to custom scale or position again after a keyboard.resize(); Thanks racheli golan TRANSFORM - IMPROVEMENT Added events parameter to transform() and to transformControls for dynamic setting This will turn on transformed event for pressmove on controls as well as the traditional pressup. Added a "transformshow" and "transformhide" events to add() and remove() for objects with transform() Fixed nested transforms, cursors for transforms in rotated containers Added NOT activating and deactivating transforms when objects are clicked that are on top of transform object - using getObjectUnderPoint. Added toggleGhost(), showGhost() and hideGhost() methods to transform transformControls object to show outline of object when transforms are not showing. PARALLAX Added startPaused and mouseMoveOutside parameters to Parallax Also a pause(state) method and paused read-only property GENERAL - NO BREAKS Added borderColor and borderWidth to RadioButtons and changed backgroundColor to be background color of circle rather than border color Changed backgroundColor default to be white with .8 alpha Fixed Sprite to accept CreateJS SpriteSheet - earlier testing for auto image had disabled ZOE import. Fixed Pane to receive a pattern - the rectangle had flatBottom param... Adjusted Rectangle with and height defaults to be each other if only one is provided - so providing one will make a square of that value Added close and closeColor to styles for Pane Added test in STYLE to not try and clone any stage or stageGL values. Updated addTo, center, centerReg STYLE to allow single container value - did require config objects (which still can be used). They also accept true Button, List, Window, fixed cloning with border set to -1 - this was being set to null and then cloned to be default of 1, etc. Fixed rollColor property of Button - was setting label color not rollColor Fixed Button clone when border turned off and icon present - which turned default to have a border Fixed glitch in animate along path (introduced in 9.4.1) so object now stays in place at end of animation (Thanks Alfred Yim and Frank Los)

ZIM 9.4.1 Various IMPROVEMENTS and updates (no BREAKS) while working on GEN-PEN at https://zimjs.com/genpen GEN-PEN is a full app with lots of List, Organizer and Panel interface and Pen and MotionController work. LIST Added an itemsText read-only property to List to give an array of item label text - if no label then null in array. Added a clear() method to the List Fixed bug when enabling button having mouseChildren set to true - now will remember this when re-enabling By default, the Button has mouseChildren set to false but in some custom buttons this is not desired. This is rare - but the custom List buttons in GEN-PEN to drag, lock, and hide were aversely affected. Added getter setter method for text property of Label - so if Label is manually changed, text property reflects change PANEL Added index parameter to nextPanel() on Panel - if using a series, can go to specific index default null for next chosen panel. Added event parameter to nextPanel() on Panel default false - set to true to make nextPanel() trigger change event Added an overlay property to Panel that makes the panel dark when enabled is set to false Added an extraButton parameter to Panel to give an extra button for reseting for instance. PEN Added lineAlpha and lineBlendMode parameters and properties to Pen that work on each line Added sizeScale and spreadScale properties to Pen to scale these values after picked from optional ZIM VEE values Changed deleted Pen lines to be visible false rather than alpha false (internal so new lineAlpha is easier) Added Pen sizeFactor and spreadFactor properties that work independently from sizeScale and spreadScale This allows two dimensions of pen manipulation - for animating and adjusting depth, for instance Added note to Pen that cropScale should be kept at 1 for iOS to avoid oversize canvas issues Added lastSelected property to Pen that remembers the last selected segment Included pressmove events in enabled property of MotionController Added infinite property to Pen to draw single segment until stop() is called Made animating pen along a path start with infinite and end with stop() - also adjusted for pauseAnimate() and stopAnimate() GENERAL Added to Squiggle and Blob the following properties: lastSelected - access to the last selected (or created) control container lastSelectedIndex - the index number of the last selected controls Fixed a bug in animate that was not letting a path animate twice in some cases - just set the target pathRatio to null when animate ends pathRatio is used internally - percentComplete is used externally and works when tween is running but was missing being able to set it ahead of time... Still may not set pathRatio ahead of time, but pathRatio is being set back to null at end of animation and will be set to 0 at start of next animation. This may lead to a situation where we want to start at a percentComplete... oh... that should be okay as the animate will start at 0 and jump to the percent complete on first Tick. This is better than starting at 0 and jumping to the 1 (pathRatio max) before percentComplete even kicks in... Should be good... could possibly flash unless we caught that - will keep an eye on it... Fixed mousewheel scroll to work when hovering on Window (or List) - was using e.stageY on a window.addEventListener (not going to work!) Adjusted decimals time parameter to also show minutes : seconds rather than minutes : decimal minutes Added calculate() to MotionController Ticker to calculate speed on manual x and y input fixed Waiter dispose() to properly remove createjs tweens - thanks Frank Los. Added cursor to objects with hov() set to true Added pausing the drag in animate() to the pause() method added to the target by animate() - thanks Jaime Convery for the find Limited ratio of ZIM colorRange() to between 0 and 1 - wiggle of color sometimes goes a touch under or over resulting a hex number conversion with one extra character (black) Updated Docs, CDN, Code page, Templates, TypeScript and announced on Slack at https://zimjs.com/slack - no bubbling videos... but an Explore on GEN-PEN

ZIM 9.4.0 ORGANIZER https://zimjs.com/explore/organizer.html Added a ZIM Organizer class to organize a List This lets the user add and remove items, and move them up and down in the list The Organizer can be found in the docs under components above Loader near bottom of components The organizer parameter of List can be used to add the organizer to the list. This will insert the organizer at the top of the list (and under the titleBar if there is one) Or a list can be passed to the Organizer's list parameter and then it can be manually positioned In making the GenPen app, the Organizer was used a half dozen times for three different purposes - very handy PANEL https://zimjs.com/explore/panel.html Added new Panel() class just before Pane() in Components. This gives a box with a title bar and optional arrows for more than one screen in panel Panel is more simple than a Window - which has scrollbars, etc. Panel can be dragged but has no close button - perhaps a Pane() would be used for that Passing in a series to the Label and color/backgroundColor will make multiple screens (shown one at a time) A choice of a single right arrow or left right arrows can be used to cycle through the panels PEN AND MOTIONCONTROLLER - IMPROVEMENT Changed pressupStop parameter to immediateStop - (default true) if pressup is used (drag or MotionController) then stop drawing immediately when press is up set to false to keep drawing until damping is finished. Adjusted mouseDownIncludes on MotionController to include specified object even when inside a container Fixed bug in Pen with new paper after old paper has been moved This was an addTo() - remember the default of addTo uses localToLocal to match positions Using shape.addTo(newPaper, 0, false) solved a very tricky bug... for when you expect a 0,0 position. Added "recordUndo" event to Pen to help tie pen in to outer undo system Fixed up nib system - so now no invisible default nib - was causing simultaneous draw and drag issues. Nib with drag uses different placement than nib with MotionController, etc. LIST AND TABS - IMPROVEMENT Added scrollBarOverlay parameter to List BREAK - after scrollBar parameters This defaults to true and will overlay the scrollBar on the list rather than add space - which would leave a gap when scrollBar is not there Adjusted List to not override padding with spacing. So it will default to spacing but you can alter padding, paddingVertical and paddingHorizontal Remove indentHorizontal and indentVertical - BREAK these were needed for label indenting but then we added labelIndentHorizontal and labelIndentVertical The indent will work only on its direction - horizontal or vertical. Padding works in all directions. Adjusted the docs of List to describe spacing, indenting and padding relationships. Fixed selectedColor glitch in Tabs - was not starting with selectedColor for text as this was pasted in the rollColor Adjusted Tabs to use zim.copy with clone set to true for proper cloning. Adjusted List and Toggle to use zim namespace in DUO function to work properly with zns=true Made vertical:false List slideSnap be "horizontal" by default Added support for starting with an empty list Adjusted Tabs and List removeFrom() to not give error if no items to remove Added original color and backgroundColor to custom Button objects passed in to list or tabs No longer giving "tabs have total less than width" message - instead setting the width to the width after the tabs are made (BREAK) Fixed Tabs backdropColor defaults - had typo for backgroundColor defaults Adjusted Tabs rollColor on first item Added excludeCustomTap parameter to Tabs and List to let custom Button objects have their own tap() - for instance, if previously set Fixed glitch in height when using titleBar. Made tap() ignore List titleBar and organizer List now accepts corner in format of [topLeft, topRight, bottomRight, bottomLeft] Adjusted Tabs backdrop to change size if the tabs change size Added clone parameter to end of List and to addAt() method TILE - IMPROVEMENT Added ZIM VEE support to align and valign for Tile - now can set a series() for different alignment! Can already set ZIM VEE for different column and row sizes. ZIM VEE for align and valign is not supported with matching squeezeH and squeezeV specified - too complicated. TAG - TEXTAREA IMPROVEMENT These now support drag() and gesture() (no rotation) - thanks KV for the catch! The https://zimjs.com/explore/tag.html has been updated with a drag() example at the bottom in red backgroundColor, padding, paddingHorizontal, paddingVertical, expand parameter have been added The drag will naturally work around the edges of the HTML tag The padding (default 10) will trigger drag as will the expand (default 20) So if you have a large padding, you may want to set expand to 0 for instance. To make the whole tag drag use: myTag.style.pointerEvents = "none"; VEE added vee(obj) to code module under featured vee(obj) is a short function that returns true if obj is in ZIM VEE format else false ZIM VEE format is [], {min:a, max:b}, function(){}, {noZik:x} ZIM VEE is a way to pass in dynamic parameters or style properties This is very handy to pass in a series() function or an array for random pickings, etc. Used to create dynamic particles with the Emitter or tile specific items in order, etc. ZIM VEE accepts any value and if not in ZIM VEE format, will just return the object It is called ZIM VEE as it was launched with ZIM VEE (5) - we are on ZIM NIO (9) GENERAL Added a titleBarBackgroundColor to Pane and changed titleBarColor to be for the label of the titleBar - like Window, List, etc. Fixed a glitch in MotionController - since Accelerator was added - was not dispatching "moving" events properly Adjusted loc() to not default to 0 if x or y is missing but rather keep the object's current x and y Fixed CheckBox style for checked style to work properly. Fixed second arrows on Stepper to work since shifting parameters on Triangle. Made LabelOnPath accept a string for the label parameter - and then it converts the string to a Label Added automatic pointer to object with tap() Patched 9.2.0, 9.2.1, 9.3.0 with loc() in transform() rather than pos(). Fixed swatch text on ColorPicker to align "center" when changed CDN, code page, templates, Distill, TypeScript, GitHub, Docs updated

ZIM 9.3.0 PEN - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/explore/pen_undo.html Re-organized internal pen to accommodate multiple undo and redo and individual drags and deletes The paper property is now a Container that holds either Bitmaps (if cache is true) or a shapes (if cache is not true) Added a draggable parameter (default true) to let pen segments be draggable Added an onTop parameter to dictate whether the dragged segment comes on top Holding the CTRL key will drag all the segments - actually drags the paper Added an deletable parameter (default true) to let user remove segments SHIFT press on a segment to remove it CTRL SHIFT press to delete all paper refers to the Container and is read write to change containers if desired (draw different layers, etc.) The shape parameter has been changed to paper - to receive an optional Container If no container is provided Container is made and placed one layer under the pen in the Container that holds the pen There are no more shape and bitmap properties as there is now a bitmap or shape per each line drawn - so use paper.getChildAt() if necessary Added a "stop" event to pen that triggers when the motion has stopped (after damping) Pen now has an undo parameter that defaults to 0 - set to a number to add undo and redo functionality Added a saveState(obj) method to record a transform change to the paper or a line segment for an undo state (only needed on manual change) This by default happens when the stop event triggers Added an undo() method that goes back one recorded state - can be called multiple times - but does nothing if past the undo level set in parameter Added a redo() method to redo any undo() calls - unless draws. Added an undoLevels property to get or set the number of undo levels Added a draggable property to read only if segments are draggable Added a cropScale parameter that defaults to 1 (stage size) - increase if you want to drag or move shape and paper Made pen use localToLocal with shape so can move paper and still sync up drawing. Added a delete(index) method to delete a line segment at a given index (actually sets its alpha to 0 to maintain layers on undo) Added a deleteSegment(segmentObject) method to delete a line segment object (actually sets its alpha to 0 to maintain layers on undo) TAG https://zimjs.com/explore/tag.html Added a Tag() class to create and overlay a div tag with a certain dimension Any HTML can be added with the add() Also has tag, innerHTML and style properties There is a resize() method to be called if manually moved or scaled. Resizing a fit or outside mode will auto resize. Pane and Pages will handle adding and removing. The overlay effect is the same as with TextArea and Loader So canvas objects will always appear beneath the Tag and there is a minor lag when resizing windows or dragging a pane, etc. ORD Added an ord(num) chainable method to move (relative) layer index So circle.bot().ord(1) moves up one from bottom and circle.top().ord(-2) moves two down from top INHERIT Added inherit parameter to all classes with style. This can pass styles on to objects made by the class - used internally But could be used to pass styles directly into a class as it is created Made List pass on styles to Window and Tabs through this system IMPROVEMENT Now setting size:10 on list will change the size of the Label in the Buttons of the Tabs of the List (unless custom objects in list) LIST - IMPROVEMENT Fixed List to work properly with padding (and paddingVertical, paddingHorizontal) - these now default to the spacing in their direction. They can be set to 0 to have no space on the ends of the list Added horizontal slideSnap to Window - was left off Changed List to default to currentSelected:true Added first() and last() chainable methods to Tabs and List Added selected, text and label properties to List Fixed a slight positioning error in addAt() - no need to re-adjust the tab size as it is done in tabs Fixed Tab select and unselect colors now that items can be added to and removed from tabs - internally, the tabs should only be used at start Fixed up scroll max to take into account padding GENERAL Adjusted getQueryString() to remove + from urlEncoded data IMPROVEMENT Adjusted Bitmap to clone actual width and height not ignored 100x100 default as that messed up clones. Adjusted Stepper so setting min and max property limits number and adjusts greyed arrow if need-be. Patched 9.2.1 with stepper setting as well. Made MotionController ignore CreateJS objects which do not have a hitTestPoint, etc. Added a hasProp(string) method to all display objects

ZIM 9.2.1 Adjusted STYLE, POSREG, DRAGALL and KEYFOCUS to work with zns=true - thanks Ami for the find. Changed about 20 references to colors, and zim functions like copy, merge, etc. where namespaces were not used - this can mess up when zns is true. This update needed to be made but could not safely be a patch due to the number of changes. Adjusted frame.asset("somesound.mp3").play({loop:-1}) to also be {loop:true} and added a loopCount property for optional number of loops. but can also still use loop:-1 or loop:10. This is consistent with how loop works in animate(). The loop:-1 still works as well. Added a password Boolean parameter to TextArea to make the field a password field (one line input field) - thanks Andi for the suggestion If animate() is missing props it gives a console message (with zon=true) and returns the object. TypeScript is updated.

ZIM 9.2.0 PEN https://zimjs.com/pen.html Handles dynamic drawing with a set of different penTypes You can drag() or gesture() pen, move it with a MotionController(), animate() it, animate() it along a Squiggle or Blob path, etc. Holding down the CTRL key will allow the pen to move without drawing LABELONPATH https://zimjs.com/explore/labelonpath.html - thanks KV for the request! Makes a label along a path of a Squiggle or Blob - which can be interactive, fixed, toggled or hidden A list of percentages for where the letters are can be provided to move around letters TOGGLE https://zimjs.com/explore/toggle.html - thanks Andi Erni for the idea and code start. Added a Toggle() component after the RadioButtons Parameters: width, height, label, startToggled, backgroundColor, margin, indicatorType, indicatorColor, toggleBackgroundColor, color, borderColor, borderWidth, corner, indicatorCorner, shadowColor, shadowBlur, time, labelLeft, style, group Gives a change event and check the toggled (or selected) property - works with STYLE and Accesibility LIST https://zimjs.com/explore/list.html https://zimjs.com/explore/listObjects.html Added a ZIM List component for a vertical or horizontal list of items - thanks Andi Erni for the prompting This is really a zim.Tabs object inside a zim.Window object. The list can be strings, numbers or Label objects and these are added to Tabs buttons. The list can also include any DisplayObject with bounds (which most ZIM objects have except a Shape needs bounds set manually with setBounds()). If the object is not a string, number or Label then selection will not highlight and currently animateTo() may not work if size is different. Items can be added or removed from the list with addAt() and removeAt() You can animateTo() and index as well - not working properly yet for when custom objects are in the list BUTTON AND TABS - IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/explore/verticalTabs.html Added align, valign, indent, indentHorizontal, indentVertical parameters to end of Button and Tabs BREAK - added a vertical parameter to Tabs just before spacing set to true to make vertical tabs BREAK - removed flatBottom parameter of Button and for Tabs it is changed to base with default "none" when no corner or corner is an array and more values of "bottom" (default when corner and not vertical), "left" (default when corner and vertical), "top", "right" corner will then be the opposite corners to the base Added borderColor and borderWidth styles for Tabs Fixed currentSelected to not show selected value - got lost in color / backgroundColor change over BREAK - removed flatBottom from Rectangle as corner is now configurable with Array and Tabs use base rather than flatBottom Note - this breaks any traditional parameter order pointing to dashed. BREAK - Added labelAlign, labelValign, labelIndent, labelIndentHorizontal, labelIndentVertical parameters to Tabs **** Added change() and noChange() chainable method to capture change events on components FLATBOTTOM - REMOVED - BREAK The flatBottom parameter has been removed as corner now accepts an array and Tabs use base for more flexible horizontal vertical arrangement So the parameter order of Rectangle, Button and Loader from dashed on has been changed IMPROVEMENT MOUSE POSITION ON TOUCHSCREEN USE Mouse Event Object: e.stageX AND e.stageY - NOT stage.mouseX and stage.mouseY - these last two do not work with touch screen. We have 100 places where we get mouse positon and almost all are working fine. But we missed one for the initial point down for dragging with slide - this has been fixed Went through docs and fixed all examples using stage.mouseX, etc. Fixed minor places in Stepper and Parallax as well. GENERAL FIXES Added default particles to Emitter. IMPROVEMENT - Squiggle and Blob when animating rotation of points now adjusts animation along path correctly - for animated paths (interactive was fine) BREAK - Indicator parameters have changed to foregroundColor, backgroundColor (for not selected) and backdropColor for the backdrop (which is often left out) The background property has been changed to backdrop. Pane and Tabs also have a backdrop - it is the background behind the background ;-) So the layers are selectedColor (font), color (font), foregroundColor, selectedBackgroundColor, backgroundColor, backdropColor - sigh. Added onTop and interactive properties to Squiggle and Blob Added a getAngle parameter to Squiggle and Blob getCurvePoint() and the CODE module pointAlongCurve() function These now return an angle at point property along with x, y, etc. Fixed a bug in pos() when bounds set to negative x and y Made align:"middle" work as well as align:"center" on label Adjusted ColorPicker to accept borderWidth and borderColor styles - for color rectangles or circles Fixed glitch in Swiper to work properly with stage as the swipeOn parameter. Fixed glitch in MotionController introduced in 9.1.0 with accelerator (put brackets around ternary when used in calculation) BREAK - changed mouseDownIncludes parameter and property of MotionController to mousedownIncludes. Added target automatically to mousedownIncludes in MotionController - this can be removed from the property array if not desired Fixed flip vertical problem with MotionController - now points the right way! We suspect hackers. Added a clear() method to ZIM Dictionary() BREAK - adjusted Label to not automatically center on a backing (by default there is no backing) backing is added when you add a custom backing DisplayObject The Label now will align and valign properly on a backing with padding - as opposed to automatically centering. BREAK - changed CheckBox check property to indicator and color to indicatorColor BREAK - changed RadioButton dots property to indicators Adjusted margin on CheckBox to be closer to CheckBox when set to 0 (inline with RadioButtons and new Toggle) Adjusted the right hand and bottom margin of RadioButtons a little. BREAK for objects with outline(), changed toggle() and toggled to outlineToggle() and outlineToggled so as to not conflict with other toggle() and toggled methods and properties Fixed talk() for Accessibility - talkTag.setAttribute("aria-hidden", !_aria); seemed to be making it not work anymore? Added Toggle component to Accessibility Added wait time to sequenceWait call - was taken out during wait updates Fixed a bug in running a Sprite backwards and not ending at 0 - thanks Alex Gopher for the find.

ZIM 9.1.2 SQUIGGLE AND BLOB UPDATES Added an interactive parameter to Squiggle and Blob to quickly turn off controls, drags, selects, etc. This leaves just the shape and should be set to false when not needing to interact with shape Added pointControls and pointCircles properties to Squiggle and Blob to access these arrays directly Before we had to go through pointObjects[0][0] to get to control container and pointObjects[0][1] to get to circles Animation should be done on the pointControls but immediate placement should be done on the pointCircles This is because when dragged, the circle is moved but the control is left in place until mouseup Added a transformPoints() function in the Code module to scale, rotate or position points in a Squiggle or Blob format Added a transformPoints() method to Squiggle and Blob that use the transformPoints function to change their points This allows you to scale or rotate Squiggle or Blob points without affecting their control points or stroke thickness https://zimjs.com/explore/scalepoints.html EXAMPLE // Transform the original points of a Blob // If you rotate or scale, this affects the control points - the little rectangles rotate or they scale // To avoid this, the points themselves can be transformed (scaleX, scaleY, scale, rotation, x, y) // This makes a square and scales it bigger without affecting control size or stroke size (if there were a stroke) // Note the default number of points is 4 but they are arranged at the top, bottom and sides - so would make a diamond with just controlType:"none" new Blob({controlType:"none"}).transformPoints("rotation", 45).transformPoints("scale", 2).center(); END EXAMPLE Fixed a glitch when unpausing a dragged object along a path Made objects follow a Squiggle or Blob path as the path is being moved or manipulated IMPROVEMENT (although also patched in ZIM 9.1.0) This results in a better experience when editing live animations EMITTER Adjusted Emitter to work if not added to stage or parent. Changed Emitter pause() and paused to pauseEmitter() and emitterPaused - to not conflict with animate() pause() and paused as sometimes we animate the Emitter. BREAK SERIES Made series() hold just regular parameters or a single parameter of an array. series(red, green, blue) is now the same as series([red, green, blue]) LABEL IMPROVEMENT Added a "baseline" value for valign parameter of Label that puts the registration of text at the baseline Added labelWidth and labelHeight parameters to Label - use them both to override font size and fit text to dimensions provided. https://zimjs.com/explore/text.html Thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting! labelHeight on its own does nothing. labelWidth on its own is the same as lineWidth - it will wrap a the provided value.

ZIM 9.1.0 MULTIPLE SELECT SQUIGGLE AND BLOB POINTS WITH DRAG AND ARROW CONTROL Try it out at https://zimjs.com/explore/multipleSelect.html Added select and multiple select (with CTRL key) to Squiggle and Blob. IMPROVEMENT Selected control point circle and handles can be dragged or moved with arrow keys. Shift arrow key moves 10 pixels at a time. Changed the CTRL click to SHIFT click for removing an existing point BREAK Added a single undo (for now) for adding or removing control points Added Squiggle and Blob to the KEYFOCUS Added selectColor (string) and selectPoints (boolean) parameters before editPoint BREAK Added SelectionSet and SelectionManager to the Controls Module See https://zimjs.com/explore/selectionTest.html Adjusted zog() and zta() to not show if zon (comments on) is set to false before ZIM is loaded. Thanks Ami for the prompting. Fixed Sprite() run() so that call:function(target){} receives the target properly if no params are passed. Thanks Chris for the find! Adjusted the MotionController to accept the container in the mouseDownIncludes - previously only children of the container were eligible. Thanks Alicia for the find! Replaced all frame.color with just color as these are now stored on ZIM - this helps DISTILL run without Frame. frame.color will still work. Tidied up dblclick cycle colors in Squiggle - when adding new point was using Blob defaults. IMPROVEMENT

ZIM NIO (9) ~ added 11k Mini-site: https://zimjs.com/nio/ that demonstrates new features - here is a summary: animate() - convenience props: path, orient, flip, flipVertical, zoom, speed, layer, fade, extra animate() - parameters: dynamic, drag, clamp, startPaused animate() - properties added to target: percentSpeed, percentComplete animate() - methods added to target: paused() - to support Accelerator() Accelerator() - now accepts targets with dynamic animation MotionController() - now accepts an Accelerator as a target ** more details below PIZZAZZ 4 - Blob and Squiggle shapes and animation path shapes https://zimjs.com/nio/paths.html DOCS - CUSTOMIZE Added a TOP link to the search area Added a Customize link to a tool to make a list of items used in your ZIM code https://zimjs.com/customize.html These will make various sets of links that will feature these items https://zimjs.com/docs.html?item=Circle - opens Circle docs. https://zimjs.com/docs.html?items=Button,Dial,Emitter - shows Feautured Items. DYNAMIC AND PATH ANIMATIONS - IMPROVEMENT - Thanks Andi Erni and others for the promptings! The speed of animations can be controlled with the percentSpeed property on the target Animations can be combined in an Accelerator to control all at once (along with Dynamos (dynamic Sprites) and Scrollers) Accelerators can be controlled with a MotionController (or techniques below) percentSpeed also works with Slider, Dial, Stepper, Swiper and Parallax percentSpeed also can be added to wiggle or animate Animations can also be scrubbed with the percentComplete property on the target percentComplete works with Slider, Dial, Stepper, Swiper and Parallax percentComplete also can be added to wiggle or animate Animation along a path (Blob or Squiggle) supports dynamic animation Objects can now be dragged along a path - see DRAG below PERCENTSPEED Added dynamic parameter to animate(). Set dynamic to true to be able to change the speed of the animation with the percentSpeed property of the target object. See https://zimjs.com/nio/speed.html Adjusted Accelerator so it accepts any object with a percentSpeed including an object that is being dynamically animated. Added a clamp parameter to animate() to limit dynamic animations to edges of their times otherwise time can go well beyond and take just as long to reverse to active animation time range See https://zimjs.com/nio/controls.html Adjusted MotionController so if an Accelerator is passed in the MotionController operates percentSpeed rather than x and y in any of its types - mousemove, keydown, gamestick, etc. PERCENTCOMPLETE Added percentComplete property to any object being animated. Setting this gives manual control for instance with a Slider, Dial, mouse position, Parallax, etc. http://zimjs.com/nio/parallax.html FLIP In addition to orient, there is now flip and flipVertical convenience props for animate() set these to true to flip the target with scaleX and scaleY depending on direction http://zimjs.com/nio/flip.html DRAG Added a drag parameter to animate() that lets you drag path animations Set startPaused to true to pause the animation and drag or drag a moving animation. Added a redirect convenience property to the props object. This defaults to true so that drag will alter the direction of the animation IF rewind is set Set this to false to not alter the direction - you can still drag backwards but when you let go, it will go in the direction the animation was going http://zimjs.com/nio/drag.html ZIM NIO EXTRA! - IMPROVEMENT EXTRA! provides animation based on animation. This allows for setting zoom, depth, speed, fade, etc. based on target y value while animating on a path but EXTRA! also opens up endless possibilities as the input and output does not have to be the target. This means that animation can also control properties of other objects and other object properties can control the animation. http://zimjs.com/nio/extra.html There is a general and full format for EXTRA! but convenience properties are also provided. These primarily help with depth while animating along a path (Squiggle or Blob) or just a straight line with x and y. ZOOM, SPEED, LAYER, FADE Added zoom, speed, layer and fade convenience properties to animate props These accept an array of values - [inputMin, inputMax, outputMin(default 0), outputMax(defaunt stageH)] zoom:[.5,1.5] will scale the target to .5 if its location is at 0 and 1.5 if at stageH and then proportionally in between speed:[50,100] will make the animation play at a slower speed the higher the target is on the stage layer:[0,10] will make the target change layers from the bottom to the top if animated along the y from y=0 to y=stageH fade:[0.5,1] will make the alpha fade as the target recedes to the back (top of the stage) This will help with depth animation to make things farther away animate more slowly and give the ability to animate around an object depth-wise. EXTRA In addition to the convenience properties above, ZIM EXTRA! has a more general and complete format: Pass in a single EXTRA! object or an array of EXTRA! objects: extra:{} or extra:[{},{},{}] The object has the following properties - all are optional except the outputProp which is required: |ZIM VEE| - each object below optionally accepts a ZIM VEE value for zik() to pick randomly from inputObj - (default target) - the object with the input property - probably the animation target but could be any object inputProperty - (default "y") - a string of the property name for the input - "x", "rotation", etc. inputMin - (default 0) - the minimum input value for the calculation - also see constrain inputMax - (default stageH) - the maximum input value for the calculation - also see constrain outputObj - (default target) - the object whose output property is being changed - probably the animation target but could be any object outputProp - (default "scale") - a string of the property name of the output - "scale", "layer", "rotation", etc. outputMin - (default 0) - the minimum output value for the calculation - also see constrain outputMax - (default 1) - the maximum output value for the calculation - also see constrain factor - (default 1) setting factor to -1 will reverse the direction of the animation outputRound - (default false) set to true to receive rounded output values constrain - (default true) constrain the output value to outputMin and outputMax set to false to let values go beyond provided mins and maxes this is quite usual when a proportion is easily figured at a certain range and continued increase or decrease is desired outside the range - just turn constrain to false. EXAMPLES: extra:{outputProp:"scaleX"} would animate the scaleX of the target from 0-1 over the stage height extra:{outputObj:circle, outputProp:"alpha"} would animate the alpha of circle based on the animated target's y position extra:{inputObj:circle, inputProp:"x", inputMax:stageW, outputProp:"level"} would animate the target's child index as the circle's x goes across the screen ** in the last two examples, circle is a different object than the target of the animation - circle might be animating independently or based on a Slider value, etc. CORNER Modified all corner properties to accept an Array [topLeft, topRight, bottomRight, bottomLeft] new Button({corner:[20,20,20,0]}).center(); https://zimjs.com/nio/corners.html TAP An chainable tap(call, distance, time, once) method has been added to all DisplayObjects along with a noTap() method This acts like a traditional click where you down up without moving the mouse (within the distance parameter) This is handy too as the methods are chainable. The callback function will receive the traditional event object HOV Added a short chainable method hov(value, prop) to change the value of a hovered object By default this is the alpha if a number is passed or the color if a string is passed new Circle().center().cur().alp(.5).hov(.8).tap((e)=>{e.target.color = red; stage.update();}); GENERAL Added interpolate and percentage parameters to closestPointAlongCurve() That returns either a closest interpolated point or the percent along a path such a point would be - used by drag parameter in animate. Added damp parameter to Slider and Dial use with Ticker rather than "change" event - eg: Ticker.add(function () {circle.x = slider.currentValue;}); Fixed Stepper clone - was missing new color (for text color) parameter Updated segmentPercents to segmentRatios to keep all percents 0-100 and all ratios 0-1 Fixed pos() to position properly inside rotated and scaled bounds had been using boundsToGlobal() should have been using getTransformedBounds() Fixed thickness now being cloned properly in Squiggle Removed labelColor and labelOffColor from Tabs as these were replaced by color and offColor - BREAKS parameter order after corner Adjusted Tabs and Pad color and rollColor of "selected" tab to be colorOff rather than color when currentSlected is false Adjusted Tabs and Pad so if currentSelected is false, the current selected button does not loose its rollover when pressed All control objects now have a type property that gives the class name as a string - DisplayObjects already have this Added pane and textArea properties to Blob and Squiggle to refer to the recordPoints Pane and its TextArea - helps to add interface to popup if desired like to let user modify point details and submit back to app. BREAK - changed Window titleBarColor to titleBarBackgroundColor and added a titleBarColor for the text color Fixed glitch in title bar when not draggable - letting you click through to content - no longer does this Added size property to Label to change font size after creation - thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting Welcome to ZIM NIO - fresh on the heels of ZIM OCT - which brought STYLE and cool Tile updates and more! TypeScript has been updated, code page, Examples page, front page logo, Distill, Bubbling videos, Templates are updated. Blog to come, social media to come, etc.

ZIM 8.3.0 Added loc() chainable method pos() no longer positions the registration point unless the reg parameter is set to true So loc() will position the registration point at loc(x, y) and default to add to stage, or choose some other container or add at index, etc. BUT alternatively, loc can also accept any object with an x and y property as its first parameter This could be another Display Object or a zim Point(100, 100) or an object literal {x:100, y:100}, etc. When the first parameter is a Display Object, obj.loc() will put its obj at the same place (registration wise) as the Display Object. This will default to set localToLocal true for exact match - there is a localToLocal parameter if this is not desired. So... loc() acts just like the old pos() with the option to obj.loc(displyObject) to easily match positions Currently there is no loc style - it is easier to use x and y styles as in x:10, y:10 rather than loc:{x:10, y:10} PATH IMPROVEMENT https://zimjs.com/explore/squiggleAnimate.html Added animation along the path with ZIM animate - the following props are added: path - pass in a Blob or Squiggle to animate along path this is dynamic so if the Blob or Squiggle changes, the animation will change if Blob or Squiggle has lockControls = false, then it is not dynamic if a set path is desired, then lockControls to save processing https://zimjs.com/explore/blobAnimate.html orient - an object to rotate the target towards if path is being used, orient defaults to orient along the path can set to false for no rotation can set to any object with an x, y point such as a circle on the stage - or {x:0, y:0} or a new zim Point, etc. the target will then rotate to face the specified location https://zimjs.com/explore/blobAnimate2.html BLOB and SQUIGGLE IMPROVEMENT Added click blob to add control point and ctrl click point to remove a control point https://zimjs.com/explore/blobAdd.html Added an editPoints parameter that defaults to true for the above - or set to false to not add and remove control points gave Blob and Squiggle controls a num property that matches their points array position Fixed a glitch when setting points property that was introduced in 7.4.0 where we started using the Container's dispose IMPROVEMENT Added proper color to handle rectangles when using Blob changeControl Added segmentPoints and segmentPercents properties to Blob and Squiggle Added getPointAngle(), getSegmentPoint(), getCurvePoint() methods to Blob and Squiggle Added pointAlongCurve, distanceAlongCurve, closestPointAlongCurve functions to Code module IMPROVEMENT Blob and Squiggle now persists even with a changed number of points Added update event to blob and squiggle for when number of points change All events on Blob will now be kept but any custom events on the shape or controls will need to be recreated as the shape and controls are now different objects. So capture the update event and remake your events. Any events on the shape or the controls will be removed before the objects are replaced with new ones. Fixed width and height parameters of Bitmap - they were not working since style update in zim 8. Fixed now. Adjusted centerReg() to add to different container than the current container when a different container provided Adjusted Keyboard cursor to properly center if Label has background

ZIM 8.2.0 ZIM KIDS A new section of ZIM has been added called KIDS https://zimjs.com/kids.html It treats coding as magic and presents the docs as spells ;-) There is a basic code writeup https://zimjs.com/magic.html There are currently four workshops with three levels each The workshops let you see the commented code and type live in the browser Please spread the word! Obviously, ZIM is not just for kids - but it is a great way to start! COLOR RANGES AND ANIMATED COLORS - IMPROVEMENT Added a colorRange(color1, color2, ratio) function to Code module Added setColoRange(color1, color2) method to ZIM Label and shapes (Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Squiggle, Blob) Passing one parameter will set range from current color to the color specified in the parameter Added colorRange property to ZIM shapes with values from 0-1. This value will set the color of the object to the color in the range matching the ratio - this can be used to wiggle the color Added a color convenience property to animate() that runs the colorRange system This allows you to animate from one color to another - including rewind, loop, from, wait, etc. new Circle(100, red).animate({color:blue}, 1000); Note - does not work with an animation series - use animate() in a call for a series of color changes Thanks Jade for the prompting! See example http://zimjs.com/explore/animatecolors.html ZIM now overrides Bitmap.clone() to provide a chainable clone like for Container, etc. This also will clone the bitmap width and height by default Usually, Bitmaps do not need to be cloned but to apply a filter they do: http://zimjs.com/explore/mask.html And to grab the color at a point they do: http://zimjs.com/explore/pixels.html Made MotionController mousedown and pressmove types not trigger if mouse down on an object Objects with mouseEnabled of false do not count. Added "toRGB" as a toColorType value. Added empty containers with 0 bounds to any null Tile() elements (actually patched 8.1.0) Fixed a few "use strict" issues in ZIM - thanks Bjorn Brockschmidt for the finds placeReg(obj) - now returns obj for chaining (as does place()) Fixed resetBounds() to return object - was returning this, when meant return obj. Also, since the last setBounds() update, resetBounds was not resetting if no parameters were passed. Added a stickColor parameter and property to Squiggle and Blob

ZIM 8.1.0 BREAK Changed the currentTarget parameter of drag() to all (default false) container.drag() - will drag individual items in the container container.drag({all:true}) - will drag the whole container currentTarget has been added back to the end of the parameters for backwards compatibility when using the ZIM DUO configuration objects. Added a DRAGALL constant that defaults to false - set this to true to make drag() drag the whole container by default Adjusted Window so titleBar is included in height - possible minor BREAK - thanks Ami Hanya for the find Removed zim clone method from Stage and StageGL - also fixed copy() trying to clone stage Added moon color = #ddd BREAK Adjusted center() and centerReg() to not add to container if already in container (was bringing up to top - now will not) POS - IMPROVEMENT / BREAK Inserted right and bottom parameters before the container parameter The container now automatically defaults to the default frame's stage (or existing parent) ** previously positioned only registration point ** now positions based on sides, top or bottom unless reg is set to true By default, will position left and top of object - can also position right or bottom Setting reg (or regX, regY) to true will position to the registration point x - (default 0 or the current x) the x distance in the container to the left or right side of the object which side, depends on the right parameter if reg or regX is true then it is the distance to the registration point not the side y - (default 0 or the current y) the y distance in the container to the top or bottom of the object which one, depends on the bottom parameter if reg or regY is true then it is the distance to the registration point not the top or bottom right - (default false) set to true to postion the right side from the right of the container bounds if reg or regX is true then it is the distance to the registration point not the side bottom - (default false) set to true to postion the bottom of the object from the bottom of the container bounds if reg or regY is true then it is the distance to the registration point not the bottom container - (default current container or zimDefaultFrame stage) the Container to add the obj to and position index, add are the same as before reg - (default false) set to true to position to the registration point rather than sides, top or bottom regX - (default reg) set to true to position x to the registration point rather than the sides will override reg if provided regY - (default reg) set to true to position y to the registration point rather than the top or bottom will override reg if provided Also added pos to STYLE: STYLE = { type:{ Rectangle:{ add:true, // all rectangles will default to a right position of 100, 300 or 500 randomly pos:{right:true, x:[100,300,500]} // also corner convenience values: "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "rightbottom" or "bottomright", "center" and "centerReg" // pos: "right", // send to right } } } Added a POSREG constant that defaults to false. Set this to true to change pos() to default to positioning the registration This will be handy in transition - and who know, maybe you like the old way better. TILE - IMPROVEMENT - Layouts See https://zimjs.com/tile.html Added features to Tile to make it very versatile (haha) in laying out non-scaled content So, moved Tile to above Layout in the Pages, Layout, Accessibility area Added width, height, compressionH, compressionV parameters after spacingV in Tile() - BREAK These handle spreading the tiles out over a width or height and various compressions This is similar to Layout but does not scale the content so much simpler calculation ;-) Added resize(w,h) and remake(items) methods Added a bunch of properties (matching parameters) to make the Tile more dynamic These can be changed and then resize() called. Added items property (Array) that can be updated with new items or different items (less, more, etc.). cols, rows, and items can be changed and then remake() run. Thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting - this will be very handy MOTION CONTROLLER - IMPROVEMENT Added pressmove type to MotionController - good for dynamic drawing with easing - default damp is .2 Added a mousedown event for mousedown and pressmove types Added moving, startmoving and stopmoving events Added a mouseMoveOutside parameter that defaults to false Set to true to let mouse motion outside the stage affect motion BREAK Changed rect parameter to boundary and added a boundary property for dynamic boundary adjustment - thanks Andi Erni for the suggestion BREAK - moved the container parameter to near the end and made it default to the zimDefaultStage Updated CDN, GitHub, Templates, Distill, Code page, Docs, TypeScript, Todo: Slack, Facebook, Twitter, Blog

ZIM OCT (8) ~ added 16k STYLE Replaced DEFAULTFONT with a general STYLE system. IMPROVEMENT STYLE can be used to set any parameter on a DisplayObject. For instance: Circle, Blob, Button, Pane, Bitmap, Sprite, etc. These are applied at the time the objects are made. They are cascading with each level overriding the previous level: 1. GENERAL: any style can be specified in general corner:30 will make all corners default to 30 2. TYPE: styles for object type can be set to override the general styles Button:{corner:0} will make all button corners default to 0 3. GROUP: styles for a group can be set to override the type styles homePage:{corner:20} will make all objects of that group default to 20 4. OBJECT: styles applied as parameters to the object override all other styles new Button({corner:40}) will make this button have a corner of 40 STYLE = { corner:20, backgroundColor:pink, type:{ Button:{width:{min:100, max:500}, corner:0, centerReg:true, move:{y:series([-150, -50, 50, 150])}}, Dial:{add:true, x:800, y:600, backgroundColor:red, scale:2, outline:true}, Pane:{corner:ignore, color:white, draggable:true, width:300, label:"HI!"}, ProgressBar:{add:true, x:200, y:600, barType:"rectangle", transform:true}, Tabs:{add:true, x:100, y:100} }, group:{ homePage:{corner:30} } } new Button(); // will have a corner of 0 and be pink new Button({group:"homePage"}); // will have a corner of 30 and be pink new Button({corner:10, group:"homePage"}); // will have a corner of 10 and be pink new Button({corner:"ignore"}) // will have a corner of its default 20 and be pink new Button({style:false}).pos(700,100,stage); // will have original default styles new Dial(); // will be red and scaled twice as big and have an outline new Tabs(); // will have a corner of 20 and selection will be pink var p = new ProgressBar({corner:15}); // will be a bar with transform tools, corner 15 p.percent = 25; new Pane().show(); // will ignore corner 30 and use its original 20 - it will say HI! in white and be draggable STYLE = { borderColor:dark, borderWidth:5, type:{ Rectangle:{ // color:red, color:[red, pink, purple], // pick a random color from here centerReg:true, animate:{props:{rotation:360}, time:500, ease:"linear", loop:true}, move:{x:series([-200, 0, 200])} } } } // make three spinning rectangles loop(3, function(){new Rectangle();}); See: https://zimjs.com/style.html for an example TRANSFORM STYLES Transformations can also be applied (all are numbers - visible is a Boolean): x, y, rotation, alpha, scale, scaleX, scaleY, regX, regY, skewX, skewY, visible a bounds style has a value of {x:Number, y:Number, width:Number, height:Number} where x and y are optional RANDOM, RANGES, SERIES, FUNCTIONS Any property value can be a ZIM VEE value to make use of ZIM zik (pick) color:[red, green, blue] will pick a random color for each object for which the style is applied x:series([100,200,300]) will place subsequent objects at these locations width:{min:100, max:500} will make objects with a width within this range See Docs on ZIM zik() and ZIM series() for more information FUNCTION STYLES The following functions have been added: addTo, center, centerReg, transform, drag, gesture, outline, mov, animate, wiggle Values of true will give default functionality for all but mov, animate and wiggle ZIM DUO configuration objects can be set as a value for any of these example: drag:true; or drag:{onTop:false} For animate and wiggle, [] can be put around multiple configuration objects to wiggle in the x and y for instance or run multiple animate calls on the object CONVENIENCE STYLES add:true - has been provided to add to the stage (use addTo for other containers) move:{x:value, y:value} or move:x - mirrors the mov Function style (just adding the e) style:false - will turn off all styles for the selector EXCLUSION A value of ignore can be used to exclude any earlier styles and return to the original default. ignore is a ZIM global variable - if zns is true then use zim.ignore or just "ignore". Setting style:false will exclude the object from all styles All DisplayObjects have a style parameter (default true). Set to false to ignore styles. GROUPS All DisplayObjects have a group parameter. This parameter accepts a string or a comma delimited string of multiple groups. The group of components can then be targeted in the Group section of STYLE. A group can contain just one component and act like an ID in CSS. COLORS Colors have been reworked for the components (they stay the same for shapes) Basically, color is now used for text and backgroundColor for the backgrounds - like CSS. color - text (and rollColor) backgroundColor - background of component (and rollBackgroundColor) foregroundColor - foreground of component borderColor - border on background and foreground indicatorColor - indicator of component SUMMARY OF PARAMETER CHANGES - BREAK Most non-Label color and rollColor parameters and properties have been changed to backgroundColor and rollBackgroundColor color and rollColor have been kept when the component has text and these now refer to the text - specifying a Label will override these. Added backgroundColor to CheckBox and RadioButtons for the box and circle The Tabs and Pad offColor is now the text color and they get an offBackgroundColor to specify non-selected buttons and they get backing and rollBacking parameters before the waitBacking Exceptions: Most components have their color parameter changed to backgroundColor. The exceptions are those which shift to a foregroundColor parameter: Waiter, ProgressBar, Indicator has its color parameter changed to foregroundColor. The color parameter remains on the ProgressBar for its text color. Waiter has its foregroundColor moved to before its backgroundColor - for consistency Keyboard: Changed Keyboard parameters so text gets color and backgrounds get backgroundColor There are a bunch of these so here they are - old on the left and new on the right: color to backgroundColor textColor to color shiftColor to shiftBackgroundColor shiftHoldColor to shiftHoldBackgroundColor placeColor to placeBackgroundColor placeTextColor to placeColor shiftBackgroundColor to shiftColor // TOGGLE There are objects that have control interfaces that can be shown or hidden: Grid, Guide, Layout, Blob, Squiggle and objects with outline() or transform() We have added a toggle(state) method to these This has also been added to the Manager class which gives it to the GridManager, GuideManager, LayoutManager and TransformManager Using toggle() will show the control (if hidden) or hide the control (if showing) You can also use toggle(true) to specifically show and toggle(false) to specifically hide A read-only toggled property has been added that is true if visible and false if not BREAK - the transform(), Blob() and Squiggle() toggle parameter and property have been changed to allowToggle Added the toggle system to Keyboard and ColorPicker, ProgressBar and Waiter (Pane already had one) Many of these have hot keys to toggle or press on / press off to toggle and these still work They also have show() and hide() and visible properties or showControls() and hideControls() and controls property These will still work as well. Added a show(), hide() to ColorPicker to allow it to act like a pop-up like Pane, Waiter, ProgressBar and Keyboard Added an optional container parameter to ColorPicker - ColorPicker can still be added with addTo(), center(), etc. but if it is being used as a pop-up, the show() and hide() or toggle() should be used. // BACKINGS and BACKGROUNDS The term backing is now consistently used for a custom DisplayObject added to a component (such as a Pizzazz shape or pattern) The term background is now consistently used for a built in background rectangle These are specified with the backgroundColor parameter for Label, Indicator, etc. objects In the past, both backingColor and backgroundColor were used which was inconsistent. BREAK Changed Indicator, Tabs, ColorPicker and TextArea backingColor to backgroundColor Renamed the backing properties of these to background to access the rectangle // DOCS Changed the order of the modules as they appear in the docs FRAME, DISPLAY, METHODS, CONTROLS, CODE, WRAP, META In the actual file, wrap and code come first and frame second last This is needed as wrap and code do not require CreateJS But from a user standpoint, the Frame, Display, Methods and Controls are most important Hopefully you will get used to it - and it will be a good change Changed the text docs as well and adjusted search to work with new changes Added SubSection Markers and reorganized items within modules // GENERAL BREAK - changed drag parameters to draggable - as conflicts with drag function style BREAK - changed the name of the Label backgroundCorner to just corner (easier to style) BREAK - Added a corner property to Indicator after backgroundColor BREAK - Added a borderColor and borderWidth to Keyboard - so changes parameter order BREAK - added a borderWidth property to Stepper and Indicator - this is after borderColor so breaks parameter order Also made border work on Indicator background Adjusted copy() to not break when cloning a null value IMPROVEMENT Fixed Button rollPersist to work if release outside of Button Added indicatorColor property to CheckBox and RadioButtons that defaults to color Adjusted ColorPicker so color text does not shift when picked (due to changes in centerReg() functionality) PATCH - fixed bounds of cloned Container without initial bounds set - thanks Ami for the find. PATCH - fixed ColorPicker when not with all colors, lastColor was set to blue and now it is not This meant that the change event would not fire if the first color chosen is blue ;-). IMPROVEMENT - clone() now clones the type property so if you change the type of a Rectangle and clone it, the clone will have the changed type Handy for passing an object with a custom type="Pattern" in for backings in STYLE Adjusted Keyboard so selectedIndex starts at the end of the label text - also fixed backspace at 0 index with existing text bug Fixed animate() when running a series with as a global function with no target the last change for overriding by default only if x and y are animating - was expecting a target - fixed now... IMPROVEMENT - updated Button so when it has a backing or icon, it removes the rollover state when enabled is set to false Adjusted backing on Label to mask backings of type="Pattern" Adjusted Squiggle and Blob to drop properly when scaled or rotated WELCOME TO ZIM OCT! A kids section is also being added to ZIM Skool for workshops and secondary school lessons Please let others know about ZIM and we'd love to hear from you at https://zimjs.com/slack - very productive! --------- Updated TypeScript zip at http://zimjs.com/typescript/zim_ts.zip Updated Distill at http://zimjs.com/distill Updated Templates at http://zimjs.com/frame, Tips, CDN and Docs Created Blog Post at https://zimjavascript.wordpress.com/2018/08/28/naked-objects-style-on-the-canvas-with-zim-and-createjs/ And CodePen at https://codepen.io/zimjs/post/naked_objects_style_on_the_canvas Updated Tips page at https://zimjs.com/tips.html and Code page at http://zimjs.com/code.html and About at http://zimjs.com/about.html

ZIM 7.3.2 IMPROVEMENT Added an optional titleBar on the top of Window like there is in Pane to drag and close and have a title... also added properties to access titleBar and its parts and the close button - added a "close" event IMPROVEMENT / BREAK changed the names of Window parameters for indicator to scrollBar - thanks Bracer Jack IMPROVEMENT / BREAK inserted scrollBarH and scrollBarV parameters default true to show scrollBars if scrolling is needed BREAK called Pane() bar parameters titleBar for consistency with new Window titleBar parameters Window has scrollBar parameters too so needed to distinguish a titleBar rather than use bar. BREAK Changed the Pane() name of the barTitle parameter to titleBarLabel BREAK Adjusted ColorPicker to set greyPicker, alphaPicker, buttoBar to false by default if one row of colors Added a read only colors property to the ColorPicker that returns the array of colors IMPROVEMENT Added "rgba" option to convertColor() and BREAK changed second parameter to be toColorType with default of "hex" and other values of "string" and "rgba" added an alpha parameter for alpha of RGBA conversion So convertColor(blue, "rgba", .1) would convert the ZIM blue to rgba(80,196,183,0.1) IMPROVEMENT / BREAK animate() override now defaults to false instead of true except if animating an x or y value and the object is currently animating in the matching x or y value In this case, all earlier tweens will be overridden along with the x and y unless override is set to false This forces the developer to use two separate tweens if the desired override settings are different. Previously, all tweens on an object defaulted to override true - to solve almost exclusively an x and y animation issue Adjusted Emitter() to centerReg() but not add as this was overriding the positioning of the emitter.

ZIM 7.3.1 IMPROVEMENT Added dispose() to all display objects And adjusted dispose() on existing display objects to recursively remove listeners and remove from parents The references to the objects on the outside must still be set to null to set object for garbage collection. Updated docs for dispose() on all Display Objects IMPROVEMENT outline() now remains on object when dragged or gestured. outline() does not come up over Keyboard - thanks Bracer Jack IMPROVEMENT Drag, Gesture and Transform objects do not come up over Keyboard even with onTop true (TBJ) Added a controls property to the transformControls that references the controls container. Updated TypeScript, etc.

ZIM 7.3.0 PATTERNS Introduced ZIM Pizzazz 03 - custom patterns and animated patterns These can be passed in to Button, Pane and ProgressBar objects using the backing and rollBacking, toggleBacking and rollToggleBacking, waitBacking and rollWaitBacking parameters at which point the pattern will be masked to the button, bar, etc. size. The patterns can also be used on their own or masked by Pizzazz 01 shapes or your shapes, etc. using setMask() http://zimjs.com/patterns.html COLORS Added Frame colors to zim namespace - and also global namespace with default zns set to false This means to use zim colors just use black, pink, faint, blue, clear, etc. with no quotes PROGRESS BAR AND PROGRESS PARAMETER Added a ProgressBar() class with default "circle" barType - also "rectangle" for traditional bar BREAK Added progress parameter to Frame and LoadAssets after the path parameter This can receive a ProgressBar or a Waiter. BREAK Due to the new Frame progress parameter, it is important to specify colors as Frame parameters so that the colors show when the progress is running - so these have been moved to before the assets parameter Loading now defaults to XHR as true if there is a ProgressBar - this gets load data from preloading Adjusted Waiter to not require a stage so it can be made and passed in to progress parameter of Frame and loadAssets() which may happen before there is a stage in the case of the Frame progress parameter. SERIES IMPROVEMENT Added a makeSeries() function to the Code module that returns a function which returns values in series This can be used with ZIM VEE (zik) values to force sequential values from an array (passed to makeSeries) TILE CHANGES - IMPROVEMENT / BREAK Adjusted Tile() so registration and origin are at top left corner of bounds Previously these were at the first element's registration point - which was odd for tiling centerReg objects like circles Added optional colSize, rowSize, align and valign parameter after spacings Moved count parameter to after cols and rows - really tired of adding null for count all the time This was added to match the format of importing a SpriteSheet which often has a count that does not match the tile count So SpriteSheet will remain as is with the count before spacing. And Tile will have the count after spacing. Added a clone parameter (default true) to end of Tile Set this to false avoid cloning a series unnecessarily DEFAULTFONT UPDATE - thanks Bracer Jack for the prompting IMPROVEMENT Applied DEFAULTFONT size and color properties to: Button, RadioButton, CheckBox, Pane, Tabs, Pad, Stepper, ProgressBar, Keyboard Initially, the font (family) and various other properties were applied but size and color were dictated by the component Now, all the properties of the default font settings are applied which could BREAK the look of the app if you were using DEFAULT FONT (only a few versions old). These properties include: size, font, color, rollColor, shadowColor, shadowBlur, fontOptions, outlineWidth, outlineColor, padding, shiftHorizontal, shiftVertical align, valign are available for the Pane BUTTON UPDATES IMPROVEMENT / BREAK The Button now has complete parameters and properties for 1. label (text), backing, rollBacking, icon, rollIcon 2. toggle (text), toggleBacking, rollToggleBacking, toggleIcon, rollToggleIcon 3. wait (text), waitBacking, rollWaitBacking, waitIcon, rollWaitIcon The backing and icon parameters are read only references to current objects Use the new setBacking(type, obj) and setIcon(type, obj) to manually adjust these at any time This makes sure that old references are removed and any patterns are applied properly Added a rolled property to Button that is true when button is rolled over Added a wait() method to force the wait state of the button (similar to existing toggle() method for toggle state) Adjusted Button so gradient and gloss work with custom backings MISC Added a series([]) function that is the same as makeSeries([]) but shorter in name for styles Added a placeTextColor parameter to Keyboard BREAK Fixed a problem with the icons - required cloning the icons as the board is remade during state changes Added expand() to close button on Pane Added chainable setBounds() method to Container and all extending container that overrides the CreateJS setBounds() Also supports alternate parameters - (size) (width, height) or (x, y, width, height) Updated TypeScript zip at http://zimjs.com/typescript/zim_ts.zip Updated Distill at http://zimjs.com/distill Updated Templates at http://zimjs.com/frame, Tips, CDN and Docs

ZIM 7.2.0 IMPROVEMENT / BREAK - changed Frame parameters to include assets and assetPath as the fourth and fifth parameters This allows initial assets to load as part of the Frame's "ready" event - thanks Bracer Jack (TBJ) for recommendation This solves the double event call that often confuses people new to coding. While adjusting the parameter order, moved outerColor parameter to after color parameter. Added a queueOnly parameter to loadAssets (default false) set to true to give asset events only to the queue and not to the frame eg. var q = loadAssets(etc) // will give a complete event to q and to the frame var q = loadAssets({etc., queueOnly:true}) // will only give a complete event to q - NOT to frame BREAK - changed the addTo() method's new localToLocal parameter to default to true This means that when an object is added from one container to the next, the x and y are adjusted so the object does not appear to move If this behaviour is not desired then set the localToLocal parameter to false. This only affects an object that has an existing parent. (TBJ) IMPROVEMENT Adjusted the DEFAULTFONT constant to optionally receive a Label config object so defaults for any font property can be set Added a resetBounds() method to the Methods module of ZIM to reset bounds if previously hard coded. IMPROVEMENT Added an empty backing event to Keyboard to stop presses from slipping through. (TBJ) Added shiftHorizontal and shiftVertical parameters to Label Adjusted CheckBox and RadioButtons to work with valign center Labels for better alignment. Adjusted outline() to clear itself if another outline is set so now, this can be called in a Ticker for instance. and we don't have to keep saying it is a snapshot in time! Thanks Bracer Jack Examples have been added to the docs. BREAK - changed the default padding to Window to be 0 - set this with padding or paddingVertical and paddingHorizontal Added a removeAll() method to Window to remove all current content from the content container and update indicators. (TBJ) Also added a "replace" parameter to the Window's add() method to replace the current content with the new content (first parameter) Updated TypeScript typings at http://zimjs.com/typescript/zim_ts.zip - updated Docs, Distill, Templates, ZIP and code page

ZIM 7.1.0 1. Updated animate() to use a props parameter rather than an obj parameter. Changed the existing props parameter to cjsProps as that is for older transition values. obj still works for backwards compatibility but has been depreciated. This is a conceptual change - props better describes that these are the properties we are animating. It will be a fairly wide-spread change so there will be many tutorials slightly out of date - oh well. 2. Added a Boundary() class to the code module to store x, y, width and height This can be used in place of a createjs.Rectangle in most cases. The createjs Rectangle is still available and has more features. This is to avoid confusion between the ZIM Rectangle and the CreateJS Rectangle. The ZIM Rectangle is a DisplayObject whereas the CreateJS Rectangle is a data class. The Boundary class can be used to specify a boundary for drag(), gesture() and for a Physics world. 3. Depreciated the rect parameter for drag() and gesture() and replaced it with a boundary parameter. The rect will still work for backwards compatibility 4. Changed dragRect() and gestureRect() to dragBoundary() and gestureBoundary() the old method names are still available but are depreciated. These methods are used to dynamically change the boundaries - which is fairly rare. The change is to match the new Boundary class for specifying a data rectangle. Thank you to Bracer Jack for the prompting and confirming our nagging concern over two Rectangle classes. 5. Added a Point() class to the code module to store simple x and y properties. This can be used in place of a createjs.Point in most cases. The createjs Point is still available and has more features. 6. Added a paused property to all DisplayObjects This will be undefined if the object has not been animated Once animated, paused will be false until the animation is paused at which point it will be set to true If the animation ends or is stopped, the pause property will be set to null. This will allow the animation to be toggled with obj.pauseAnimate(!obj.paused) 7. IMPROVEMENT - added circularBounds parameter to gesture to keep rotated circular objects within boundaries 8. Added a DEFAULTFONT constant to the controls module below ACTIONEVENT (thanks Bracer Jack for the idea) This can be set to change the font across all components to whatever is specified Fonts specified per component will override this default DEFAULTFONT can be set to a custom font - frame.asset("myFont.ttf") for instance 9. IMPROVEMENT- fixed gesture to not move if move is false and are double pinching This was a glitch when we introduced surround bounds 10. Fixed startBounds parameter for drag() when using DUO. 11. center() and centerReg() will default to the object's parent if there is a parent and no container is provided Thanks Bracer Jack for the suggestion 12. Changed global variable zon to be true by default to show messages from ZIM In CodePen the libraries are passed in separately, so zon is missing from the code and people were not receiving ZIM messages like bad parameter warnings, etc. So the default now is true and zon must be set to false to suppress messages. 13. Added an asset object to Frame's loadAssets() in format of {id:"string", scr:"file"} The loaded file can be accessed by id such as frame.asset("string"); The path paramter works in the same way as usual. Specifying just the filename is still available: frame.loadAsset("filename"); Then the file can be accessed frame.asset("filename"); but the optional asset object offers an abstracted solution if desired - thanks Bracer Jack for the prompting 14. Updated TypeScript Typings for Point, Boundaries, drag, dragBoundary, gesture, gestureBoundary, animate and StageGL

ZIM 7.0.2 IMPROVEMENT can now load Sprites with CORS (cross domain) when using JSON parameter JSON was passing string version of URL to Sprite which voided the image crossdomain settings Also, ZIM now pre-parses the images array in the JSON to match frame.asset() images So the exact path is no longer needed in the JSON - just a matching filename will do This is handy as TexturePacker, etc. often export with just the filename and previously, this would not run if the SpriteSheet file were stored in an assets folder for instance unless the JSON was modified to reflect the path - now, this is not necessary. Adjusted gpu setting of Frame to properly make Bitmaps (broke in version 7) - patched 7 and 7.01 The change in 7 was to support IE as IE does not have an ImageData() constructor so ZIM 7 was adjusted to use the createImageData() method of the context2D of the currentFrame. Well... when gpu is true... there is no context2D for the currentFrame so now a new temporary canvas is used to provide the createImageData method ;-) Added hitTestGrid() to StageGL BREAK added a currentSelected parameter after currentEnabled (before corner) for ZIM Tab currentEnabled now only determines if tab can be clicked again when already selected if true, this will call the change event even though the selectedIndex has not changed The currentSelected defaults to true to highlight the selected tab after clicking if set to false then the tab does not stay highlighted - good for button bars - IMPROVEMENT Version 7 tried to not highlight when currentEnabled was true but this broke the Pad so the functionality was split into two parameters setting currentSelected to false will automatically set currentEnabled to true IMPROVEMENT Added bounds transfer to when container is cached - apparently this is fixed in next CreateJS version Adjusted Blob and Squiggle to store an internal mySet rather than set property as this was conflicting with the CreateJS set method when animating the Circle or Rectangle objects in the control container Swapped default for zon to be true - to automatically give messages from ZIM unless set to false Was making CodePens and missing warning messages from ZIM about bad parameters, etc. Updated TypeScript Typings for Tabs and StageGL

ZIM 7.0.1 IMPROVEMENT Changed stage.mouseX and stage.mouseY to e.stageX and e.stageY when applicable to let desktop touch screens access value - affected Keyboard drag, Swiper and a few other components Adjusted Emitter() to moveTo random position rather than lineTo for emitShape setting (fixing a glitch) Added swiperpause event and pauseTime parameter to ZIM Swiper Added hitTestGrid() to Stage and StageGL classes BREAK - added a sensors parameter to Frame that defaults to false set this to true to use the Frame's devicemotion and deviceorientation events this was set to default to false to remove the "depreciated" warning in the Browser console Added zta() global function that logs Arrays and Objects to the console as a table this binds the console.table() method IMPROVEMENT Fixed Dial continuous to dispatch change event only different than earlier value Adjusted Pad to show tabs it has if passing in a tabs list of less than number for pad Added zik to wiggle() for base, min and max amounts so now these amounts can be adjusted by an outside function for dynamic ranges with one wiggle Added Keyboard selectedLabel and selectedIndex properties and showPlace() and hidePlace() methods Thanks James Barrett for the prompting and thanks again Frank Los for the Keyboard class. Fixed TextArea clone() method to properly clone TextArea Updated TypeScript files and added link to top of docs // PATCH Adjusted Sprite to be interactive with JSON file and image from remote sites with CORS settings to anonymous Previously, had to make a custom CreateJS SpriteSheet and pass that in to Sprite Fixed Container to keep non-hardcoded bounds after being cached

ZIM 7 Added a Keyboard() class to the Display Objects (thanks Frank Los for the design and code) Keyboard works with Label() to provide single line editable text without needing the system keyboard Added top() and bot() chainable methods to put object at top or bottom of container - thanks Ami Hanya for the recommendation. IMPROVEMENT Added links to libraries at the top of the docs for SOCKET, GAME, PHYSICS, THREE, PIZZAZZ, PIZZAZZ 2 as well as made all these files consistent in introduction and documentation format (inside CDN files) Launched Physics and Three as version 1.0 - Game and Socket were already version 1 and Pizzazz is different IMPROVEMENT Added video links to Docs - a little button near view and bits at the bottom of each doc entry IMPROVEMENT Added wheel event to Window for mousewheel scrolling - was using out-of-date events Added a scrolling event to Window when it is scrolled Added an HTML NodeList to ZIM loop() - see ZIM zet() to get a NodeList like $() in JQuery Dedicated ZIM Portal to Stephen Hawkings - may he portal on! Added Button borderColor property - thanks Chris Spolton! Added an svgToBitmap() conversion function to META module to convert SVG to a ZIM Bitmap Thanks Kenil Domadia for the recommendation For Base64 Bitmap support made Bitmap update the stage after 50ms and then after another 50ms this is because there is a delay in creating a Bitmap from data - thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting All the changes are reflected in ZIM TypeScript Typings http://zimjs.com/typescript/zim_ts.zip KEYFOCUS - IMPROVEMENT Added a global KEYFOCUS constant to keep track of which component has keyboard focus This is a system for all components with keyboard controls (set to active) The first component made will set KEYFOCUS to itself Anytime a component is used it sets KEYFOCUS to itself Components have a keyFocus property that can be manually set There is only one component with key focus so setting removes key focus from the last key focused component Added KEYFOCUS to TypeScript If tabbing from one component to the next is needed, consider using ZIM Accessibility() Made keydown change components only if component is on stage POS() BREAK inserted an index parameter to pos(x,y,container,index,add) - also now accepts DUO Was going to make the default be adding to stage - but after some thought, decided not to You must still explicitly specify the container We had changed it but then were getting errors where things were showing up unexpectedly in score boards, etc and it just seems a little too dangerous ZIM GESTURE Added onTop and surround parameters to ZIM gesture() - thanks Frank Los for the suggestions surround currently does not work if rotate is true Adjusted gesture() rect parameter to handle resized and rotated objects This is an IMPROVEMENT but also slightly BREAKS code with old rect values Here you specify the rectangle to contain the object - not the registration point of the object So this is slightly different than the rect provided to ZIM drag To accommodate this we have added an update parameter to the gestureRect This defaults to true and Gesture will dynamically update the gestureRect as the object scales and rotates Internally, it passes a false to the new update parameter. GENERAL FIXES Removed ColorPicker indicator if currentIndex is less than 0 Fixed grip on ColorPicker to be dragable by setting shape to mouseEnabled false so background is selectable IMPROVEMENT - adjusted TextArea so readOnly parameter works Fixed decimal values for Stepper - some values had micro additions - these have been rounded to the decimal number Adjusted tabs so that if currentEnabled is true, clicking button leaves button on rollcolor - like a button would - good for button bars Fixed stage property in waitModal for buttons, tabs, etc. Fixed next mousedown and hold on Stepper when mouse not moved. Made animate() return the target for chaining when ANIMATE is set to false. Changed loop() docs for method to not include loop function functionality but rather refer to the loop() function in CODE module BREAK - changed the Squiggle borderDashedCommand to dashedCommand as the Squiggle has no border Squiggle is no longer implements a ZIM Shape in TypeScript as it has no border Adjusted outline of Label to show above backing and backgroundColor Adjusted wiggle to not use animate with a Ticker if object does not have a stage Adjusted Slider so inside setting properly centers the slider in bounds Added JS document.Window and document.Blob references before overwriting with ZIM Window and Blob

ZIM 6.9.0 IMPROVEMENT Added TypeScript Typings for ZIM. This led to some slight organizational changes but nothing serious a few additions and a few parameter changes as outlined below. The Typings are complete but relatively untested so there may be type typos to work through as there were over 1000 lines of unique definitions and 2700 lines of full definitions that were created with a custom parser. The Typings ZIP can be found here http://zimjs.com/typescript/zim_ts.zip Added ZIM Stage and StageGL class for TypeScript typings ZIM Stage has type and read only width and height properties given to it by zim.Frame If ZIM Frame is used, there should be no use for ZIM Stage. Also gave the stages the loop() method so we can loop through children of the stage like we can a ZIM Container BREAK The following were adjusted as we went through the typings: added a fileID property to Bitmap as an alternative id to avoid conflict with CreateJS Bitmap id removed second rect from MotionController - there already was a rect when we added another rect. adjusted Stepper prev and next properties to containerPrev and containerNext so as not to conflict with prev and next methods changed TextArea focus() to setFocus() and hasFocus property to focus - for better consistency with other focus properties changed Pages setSwipe() to setSwipeArray() so as not to conflict with Container property setSwipe() changed Stepper loop parameter and loop property to continuous (like Dial) so as not to conflict with Container property loop() MORE METHODS CONVERTED TO CHAINABLE: Blob and Squiggle setPoints(), changeControl() Label showRollColor() Button setBackings(), setIcons(), toggle(), clearWait(), stopWait() CheckBox setChecked(), RadioButtons setSelected() Pane hide(), Window resize(), Waiter hide() Loader resize(), TextArea resize() GENERAL UPDATES Added a fileType parameter to loadAssets() so can override CreateJS PreloadJS parser Note - it acts on all files loaded so might have to separate loading to get a specific type to load For instance, laoding a .d.ts file was parsing as sound rather than text - so pass in fileType:"text" to override but you would need to do this independently from any other assets unless the other assets were text too. Added vertical parameter to tabs - set to true to make vertical tabs or vertical button menus Tabs now as a backingColor parameter for in behind when corner is set BREAK - changed the order of the smoothStep parameters to (num, min, max) to match order in constrain() and others updated smoothStep example and Noise examples at http://zimjs.com/noise/ Moved ZIM Tile from the Display to the Controls module. Tile takes an existing Display object and tiles it much like Layout, Scroller, Emitter, etc. operate on existing Display objects Being a Container, Tile still receives all the ZIM Methods. Also adjusted Tile's code when mirroring non-zero registration objects Replaced the mousewheel event in zil() to wheel as mousewheel is depreciated Also added wheel event to Window with scrollWheel true (default) adjusted docs for Scroller to a paused property instead of the typo pause - note: there is a pause() method Made Dictionary remove() return boolean success Adjusted TextArea to not give error when Frame allowDefault is true (patch) Adjusted tag mode canvasID to not have random number on end - thanks James Barrett Added a allowDefault property to Frame to turn off and on zil for expanding and collapsing frames see http://zimjs.com/expand/index.html - thanks Chris Spolton for the idea ZIM removeFrom() - now removes from parent by default - makes sense ;-) Changed ImageData() to createImageData() in Bitmap to support IE - thanks Chris Spolton Adjusted spurtfizzed and spurtdecayed to lowercase instead of camelCase Adjusted cloneProps to remake bounds - otherwise they were linked (patch)

ZIM 6.8.1 IMPROVEMENT Added immediate property to Parallax class layer object. So you can specify a starting value without damping to the starting value IMPROVEMENT Added frame.visibleLeft, frame.visibleRight, frame.visibleTop and frame.visibleBottom properties to help position relative to window in "outside" mode All other modes will have 0,0,stageW,stageH for these properties This data changes for outside mode and can be used in a frame resize event to keep items like navigation in the window view Added note about setting mouseEnabled of animation target before running animation as animate sets and resets to original after a small delay So if you set the mouseEnabled to false right after an animate() call then it will be reset IMPROVEMENT Added crossOrigin parameter to frame.loadAssets() with default of "anonymous" - this lets files be loaded from Amazon S3 for instance if the right CORS set up is there - HEAD was added for fonts - see the Bucket Permissions and then CORS configuration <CORSConfiguration> <CORSRule> <AllowedOrigin>*</AllowedOrigin> <AllowedMethod>GET</AllowedMethod> <AllowedMethod>HEAD</AllowedMethod> <MaxAgeSeconds>3000</MaxAgeSeconds> <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader> </CORSRule> </CORSConfiguration>

ZIM 6.8.0 Added ZIM VR class in the Controls to do side-by-side VR like in Google Cardboard. This is quite an exciting system so have a good look over the docs and examples. http://zimjs.com/code/vr Added a depth property to Display objects to be used with the VR class (only at this time) Added a dep() chainable method to set the depth property Added device orientation event to Frame: "deviceorientation" - fired as device orientation changes eventObject.alpha holds rotation about the z axis (if device is flat) relative 360 orientation like a compass eventObject.beta holds rotation about the x axis between -180 and 180 (tipped forward or backward) eventObject.gamma holds rotation about the y axis between -90 and 90 (tipped left or right) eg. frame.on("deviceorientation", function(e) {zog(e.alpha, e.beta, e.gamma)}); Added multiple parameter to Frame makeCircles() method to make ZIM Circles rather than a single Shape Adjusted centerReg() to only add to default stage if container is not provided AND obj is not already added to a container (no parent) IMPROVEMENT Adjusted setMask() to not set the mask when not added to the stage only when the mask is dynamic IMPROVEMENT Since adjusting the setMask in 6.7.1 masks could only be set when added to the stage This has now been fixed so that masks can be set when not yet added to the stage. Fixed a typo bug introduced in 6.7.2 that broke RadioButtons IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zob() so it does not give an error if a single undefined parameter is passed in IMPROVEMENT And... there was a glitch in making it chainable - it is now chainable IMPROVEMENT Re-adjusted the Loader.save() method to avoid a Google change of policy: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/GbVcuwg_QjM%5B1-25%5D Now saves directly to a file rather than showing image in new window. Thanks Frank Los for the heads up.

ZIM 6.7.5 BREAK ZIM move() has been removed. Please use ZIM animate() instead with obj:{x:val, y:val} ZIM move() was a convenience method that just took an x and y parameter and passed it through to animate(). Now with ZIM mov() it became too confusing to have both and move() was not really needed. IMPROVEMENT Added an events parameter to animate (default false) set to true to dispatch "animation" events from the target The "animation" event will be dispatched while the target is being animated. Thanks Ami Hanya for the recommendation. Adjusted ZIM addTo(), center() and centerReg() to default to the adding to the first frame's stage if no parameters So now circle.addTo(), circle.center() or circle.centerReg() will add to stage as long as there is one frame. If there are two frames, it will get added to the first frame's stage so beware. BREAK The centerReg() used to just center the registration and not add it to anything if there were no parameters. Now, it centers and adds to the stage. To just center the reg, use centerReg(null, null, false); It was quite rare to just center the reg and not add it to a container. And it was important to keep the addTo(), center() and centerReg() defaults consistent. Added container and add parameters to ZIM pos() For now, the container property defaults to null. We will consider defaulting to the first frame's stage (if not already added to a container) in the future. The add parameter defaults to true and could be set to false to not add to the container. Thanks Kate Xue for discussion. ADDED TO LABEL: (thanks Daniel Loranz for the prompting) backgroundColor - (default null) set to CSS color to add a rectangular color around the label The background color will change size to match the text of the label Note: the backgroundColor is different than a backing which can be any Display Object and background parameters are ignored if a backing parameter is set backgroundBorderColor - (default null) the background stroke color backgroundBorderWidth - (default null) thickness of the background border backgroundCorner - (default 0) the round of corner backgroundDashed - (default null) set to true for dashed background border (if backgroundBorderColor or backgroundBorderWidth set) padding - (default 10 if backgroundColor set) places the border this amount from text (see paddingHorizontal and paddingVertical) padding parameters are ignored if there is no backgroundColor set (also ignored if a backing parameter is set) paddingHorizontal - (default padding) places border out at top bottom ALSO added background property for the label to access the ZIM Rectangle that is the background

ZIM 6.7.4 Adjusted slidestop to work in Swiper if there is no min and max. Updated Dial, Swiper and MotionController enable property to use event variables when adding the events. Updated the transform show and hide to use event variables when adding the events. Eg. INITIAL SETTING: var eventID = that.on("mousedown", eventFunction); DISABLE: that.off("mousedown", eventID); ENABLE: // was doing: that.on("mousedown", eventID); // should be: eventID = that.on("mousedown", eventID); This does not affect one enabled = false then one enabled = true. But after that, the next enabled = false will not work. If there is another enabled = true then there are two events, etc. So this has IMPROVEMENT possibilities. At some point, this concept was lost and now it has been found again.

ZIM 6.7.3 Updated gesture to fix bug when setting rotate or scale to false - thanks 王晓东 / Sheldon Wang for the find Added a hasFocus property to TextArea to get or set focus with property - there is already a focus() method to set focus. Made the default cursor for cur() be the "pointer" - set cur("default") to go back to normal cursor, etc.

ZIM 6.7.2 Updated Blob and Squiggle points and controls property. Blob and Squiggle had their points parameter array set with Number positions The points property was initially read only for an array of point objects - the control container, circle, and rectangles This was fine until we introduced the TransformManager and added the Blob and Squiggle. At this time, we needed to be able to recreate blobs and squiggles. We made points settable with an array in the same format as the points parameter. This left the points property with different formats for getting and setting - not ideal. So this change has fixed the issue and makes point manipulation easier and more consistent. BREAK - IMPROVEMENT the points property is now consistent in format for both getting and setting with x and y properties (and a control type): points - [[controlX, controlY, circleX, circleY, rect1X, rect1Y, rect2X, rect2Y, controlType], [etc]] A new property has been added to get access to the zim objects for each point: pointObjects - [[control, circle, rect1, rect2, controlType], [etc.]] Here, control is the container; circle, rect1 and rect2 are Circle and Rectangle objects Note, the order is now the same for consistency We were also using the term "set" to represent the controls of one point. This starts getting confusing when we get and set values as we are using the word set again. (Thanks Kris Gardiner for the advice) So we now use control to refer to the controls at the point - control is the container that holds the circle and the two squares BREAK - the sets property has been changed to controls which provides access to the overall container that holds all the control containers BREAK - controlsVisible is now the Boolean property to get or set the visibility of the controls - this was formerly controls. Added an update parameter to Blob and Squiggle changeControl() - defaults to false to let multiple changes be batched with update() method Fixed canvasID for tag mode - Thanks Alex for the report Updated ZIM Label to be able to store a space and return text of a space. Adjusted ZIM animate to use ZIM VEE values for sequences.

ZIM 6.7.1 Added chainable cache() method to Containers and Sprites - this overrides CreateJS cache to operate on bounds by default and return the object for chaining so all Display Objects that extend a Container such as Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Blob, Squiggle, Label, etc. all get the new cache() eg. var circle = new Circle(100, frame.red, frame.dark, 5).cache().drag(); cache() will automatically cache the dimensions of the Circle, Rectangle, etc. and add the half borderWidth as well - NOTE that cache is chainable now! You can still pass in dimensions and if you do, you can just pass the first two parameters as width and height to start x and y at 0. Or you can pass all four parameters like CreateJS cache() - note, the fifth parameter is scale which can cache at a higher fidelity for later scaling This is a convenience function for circle.cache(-circle.radius, -circle.radius, circle.radius*2, circle.radius*2); Added a cur() chainable method for applying a cursor to a CSS cursor string value eg. var circle = new Circle(100, frame.red, frame.dark, 5).cur("pointer"); This is a convenience function for circle.cursor = "pointer" The function itself in ZIM is virtually nothing: zim.cur = function(type) { obj.cursor = type; return obj; } But it allows us to chain and potentially avoid variable names - for example: var circle = new Circle().center(stage); circle.cursor = "pointer"; circle.on("click", function(){zgo("http://zimjs.com");}); // becomes 70% the code with: new Circle().center(stage).cur("pointer").on("click", function(){zgo("http://zimjs.com");}); // remember that on() does not return the object for normal chaining but that is okay if no further reference to the object is needed // albeit, risky if you change your mind... Added a sha() chainable method for applying a createjs Shadow() that has defaults or params for color, shiftX, shiftY, blur or a single CreateJS Shadow eg. var circle = new Circle(100, frame.red, frame.dark, 5).sha().drag(); This is a convenience function for : circle.shadow = new createjs.Shadow("rgba(0,0,0,.3)", 5, 5, 10); // etc. Updated gesture() and transform() to work properly with masking as well as converted drag(), animate() and Blob() into new mask management Added a dynamic parameter (default false) to setMask() that runs a Ticker to track and update mask movement. The Blob and any ZIM Shape that has drag, animate, transform or gesture will set the dynamic property to true (unless it was explicitly set to false) A Shape() that is used for a mask does not have to be dynamic as it is directly applied as the mask If you are going to mask with a ZIM shape (Rectangle, Circle, Triangle) and then manually transform the mask for instance, mask.sca(2); then either setMask with dynamic of true or setMask after the transformation BREAK - IMPROVEMENT - made setMask() return object for chaining - now that dynamic is set no need really to return mask object instead use mask.zimMask BREAK - Added count (total tiles) parameter to after cols and rows for ZIM Tile - in case you do not want all columns filled on last row. Added factor parameter to Swiper (default 1) is going the same direction and -1 is going in opposite direction Updated Swiper to recognize damp parameter Added swipestop event to Swiper for when motion stops after swipeup Adjusted added() method to clear longer interval if shorter interval detects stage Adjusted Blob and Squiggle to not check for stage updates when not on stage due to removeFrom stage - was working fine for toggle but not if manually removed Added slidestop event to drag() docs

ZIM 6.7.0 Added devicemotion event to Frame - eg. frame.on("devicemotion", function(e) {zog(e.acceleration.x, e.acceleration.y, e.acceleration.z)}); Added Portal(obj, lands) to controls module. Portal lets you travel between lands (screens, etc.) by rolling over an object - the portal. It handles masking the land through the portal and the land management - dispatches enter and exit events Here is an example http://zimjs.com/code/portal BREAK - changed "relative" parameters and properties in Dial to "continuous" for better clarity - and continuousMin and continuousMax

ZIM 6.6.4 IMPROVEMENT Adjusted Dial and Slider keypress to be independent of other keydown commands (like MotionController) Added keyArrowsH and keyArrowsV to Dial and Slider that default to true - can now turn off left/right or up/down control Fixed arrow control on limit=false to allow multiple revolutions Fixed arrows on relative setting of Dial Fixed ticks for slider with max that is smaller than min

ZIM 6.6.3 Adjusted docs to say Dial has default step of 1 (not 0 as docs had said). Added multitouch to Dial - Slider and drag() already have multitouch. Added relative, relativeMin and relativeMax parameters to Dial Added relativeMin, relativeMax get set properties to Dial and made min and max writeable for when relative is true This uses max-min as amount per revolution and continues to add or subtract accordingly http://zimjs.com/code/etch/ for Etch A Sketch example

ZIM 6.6.2 IMPROVEMENT Added raw() method to zim.Ticker() that directly adds a function to a requestAnimationFrame Also added a removeRaw() method to remove a raw function with an id made by var id = Ticker.raw(function) This gives ultimate speed without calling the library system of Ticker.add() Ticker.add() should still be used in general for multiple ticker calls or calls along with zim animate, etc. But use raw() for dynamic art for instance where you have one butter smooth ticker. You need to call stage.update() in the raw() function We could have called stage.update() but it would run the risk of duplicating the update if the coder also put it in Updated Scroller to add second object to the same layer as the original object so no need to add Scroller objects to containers IMPROVEMENT Added flip and flipVertical parameters to Dynamo to flip the Sprite if speed is negative and reversible is false. This was done by the coder previously - so it might BREAK a project where it was already done... BREAK Also changed reversable parameter to reversible for proper spelling ;-) BREAK Added convertColor() to DISTILL Adjusted DISTILL to properly access ZIM namespace without ZNS set to true Adjusted Frame to create a random canvasID if the frame is not the default frame and no canvasID is provided Added canvasID property to Frame to provide String of the canvasID - could also use frame.canvas.id Fixed glitch in makeID() so default is indeed mixed

ZIM 6.6.1 Added isJSON function to test for JSON string. IMPROVEMENT Adjusted ZIM gesture to rotate and scale around pinch point. Added regControl parameter (default false) to gesture go back to rotating and scaling around registration point. Fixed chaining of stopAnimate and pauseAnimate.

ZIM 6.6.0 DOCS: Removed namespace from documentation titles and doc examples Remember that the namespace can still be used. It can also be required by setting zns=true before importing ZIM Tidied up the function listings to not include title = function(parameters) but rather title(parameters) Added a text version of the docs for easy import into other viewing systems like PDF (thanks Vishwas Gagrani) SQUIGGLE: Added ZIM Squiggle - like a blob but only a line Squiggle has pretty well all the blob features including TransformManager support Squiggle does not have borderColor, borderWidth nor radius but rather has color, thickness and length It also defaults to "mirror" as the type of control rather than "straight" which the Blob defaults to BUTTON: IMPROVEMENT - added wait, waitTime, waitColor, rollWaitColor, waitTextColor, rollWaitTextColor, waitModal, waitEnabled parameters to the end of the Button parameters. Added clearWait() and removeWait() methods, a waiting property and a waited event which is dispatched if the waitTime is reached. For wait backings and icons use the setBackings() and setIcons() methods along with the waited event to handle changes. BREAK - inserted a borderRollColor parameter before borderWidth which is before corner. Any existing buttons with traditional parameters up to corner will broken - an extra null will have to be inserted before borderWidth. Also added a borderRollColor property to the zim Button. Since the parameter order has changed, moved dashed to after flatBottom parameter - to match Rectangle. Added wait parameters to Tabs and Pad as well and added gradient and gloss to Pad PANE: Added the following parameters to ZIM Pane() bar - (default null - no bar) a String or ZIM Label title for the pane that will be presented on a bar across the top barColor - (default "rgba(0,0,0,.2)") the background color of the bar if a bar is requested barHeight - (default fit label) the height of the bar if a bar is requested close - (default false) - a close X for the top right corner that closes the pane when pressed closeColor - (default #555) - the color of the close X if close is requested Also added bar, barColor, barBacking, and close properties to access these objects Fixed TextArea and Loader inside Pane add/removal problem - was using Dictionary objects list rather than values list Also for multiple TextAreas was not looping through container backwards when removing so was missing an item BREAK changed the backingAlpha to backdropColor to offer more flexibility for the backdrop use "rgba(0,0,0,.5)" etc. for dark and "rgba(256,256,256,.5)" for light - and of course colors as well. You can use a solid color and then drop the alpha with pane.backdrop.alpha = .2 - not alp() as backing is CreateJS shape. HITTESTCIRCLES: IMPROVEMENT - added ZIM hitTestCircles() method to all display objects. This tests if two circle shapes are hitting using an equation based on cirles made from bounds If the bounds are not square, the circles are averaged - the radius is half the average of the lengths of its sides (This is different than hitTestCircle() where the points around the "circle" actually stretch to an oval with the bounds) obj.hitTestCircles(obj2) is a calculation based on intersecting circles so is faster than shape hitTests It will be as fast as hitTestBounds and hitTestGrid. hitTestCircles second parameter is a margin number value which can be positive or negative to tweak the hitTest A margin parameter has been added to hitTestBounds as well before the boundsShape OTHER: IMPROVEMENT - added zim.previewAudioSprite() to the META module to create tabs with each sound in an AudioSprite for easy preview Adjusted parseAudioSprite() to clarify that it returns a CreateJS AudioSprite object BREAK - adjusted Blob to have a setData() method rather than a set() method so the general set() method is not obscured BREAK - adjusted transform() transformObject to have a setData() method rather than a set() method to be consistent with Blob and Squiggle NOTE: transform has a transformObject which is a custom object - not a Display object so set() is fine there but wanted to be consistent BREAK - adjusted Blob and the transformObject to have recordData() methods rather than record() methods These now match - recordData(), setData(), recordPoints(), setPoints() - sorry for the adjust but should be settled now. Also adjusted the Docs on Blobs to update the single click edit. Also adjusted the Docs on the Blob's points property to indicate a different format for setting and getting points. Adjusted TextArea and Loader to use zim.added() to test for the stage and then on("added") to test for re-adding after Fixed a glitch in Stepper so the downForward parameter works as expected Added read only num property to Blob (to match Squiggle's num property) for number of points Added error support for font loading so load completes if font is missing - takes the timeout though of 8 seconds which is not ideal but could not seem to capture immediate bad URL error with error or fileerror events Fixed Stepper to set correct selectedIndex when stepping through number list that does not start at 0 and make sure enabled has this number when set to true Gave Pane and Indicator enabled properties like most other components IMPROVEMENT - adjusted TextArea to have a background-color of rgba(0,0,0,.01) so cursor and selection highlight shows up (was at transparent - weird that would affect selection) IMPROVEMENT - adjusted zim.drag() so the last drag added is the only drag on the object IMPROVEMENT - added a dynamically created audio tag for the first audio loaded to jumpstart audio on some Apple devices Thanks Bart Libert for reporting and testing the issue.

ZIM 6.5.0 AUDIOSPRITES: IMPROVEMENT Added support for AudioSprites with frame.loadAssets() and frame.asset() Added outputAudioSprite parameter to loadAssets() to show converted AudioSprite data when using ZIM AudioSprite format Added parseAudioSprite() function to META section for parsing AudioSprite data from https://github.com/tonistiigi/audiosprite TRANSFORM, BLOB and TRANSFORM MANAGER: Added a transformType property to the transformed event object for transform() This has values of "scale", "move", "rotate", "stretchX", "stretchY", "reg" "reset" Added objects and persistID to the start of ZIM TransformManager() parameters BREAK The unique parameter has been removed now that transform works with single click Added currentObject and persistData properties to TransformManager Added EVENTS to TransformManager: 1. transformed event when pressup on any of the controls or on click transformed event object has transformObject and transformType properties the transformType property has values of: FOR TRANSFORM: "size", "move", "rotate", "stretch", "reg" "reset" FOR BLOB: "move", "bezierPoint", "bezierHandle", "bezierSwitch" 2. transformshow and transformhide events for when click to hide or show controls these have a transformObject property to indicate what was shown or hidden Added a dispose(removePersist, removeControls) method to TransformManager Added a dispose() to the transformControls for any transformed object to remove transform controls and events Made Blob and transform / TransformManager only trigger change or transform events when a property value changes Previously, a change would happen on mousedown and pressup but now there has to be a different x or y Same with all handles, scaling, rotating, reg, etc. SHAPE BITMAP and GRADIENT FILLS: IMPROVEMENT - added colorCommand and borderColorCommand properties to ZIM shapes (Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Blob) These allow you to set Bitmap, linearGradient and radialGradient fills on the shapes (through CreateJS Graphic objects) Thanks Samual Jacquinet for the prompting! OTHER UPDATES: Fixed Waiter.dispose() method when short wait times - thanks Ami Hanya zim.hitTestPoint, hitTestReg, hitTestRect, hitTestCircle got a new last parameter - boundsCheck (default true) Set this to false to not do a bound intersection check first This would be slower but if the bounds are wrong (such as with blobs) the parameter should be set to true to make sure that only the shape is used and not filtered by the faster bounds test. Adjusted ZIM Blob to fix bounds issue due to above. BREAK - no longer clone the cursor property when cloning an object - that can lead to unexpected results - but let us know if you disagree

ZIM 6.4.1 IMPROVEMENT fixed memory leak in transform() that was leaving mousemove events due to using wrong variable name IMPROVEMENT BREAK removed dblclick parameter and replaced with toggle parameter for single click editing This is much more intuitive and has been set to a default of true. So click on shows controls and click off hides controls. IMPROVEMENT BREAK changed dblclick parameter for zim.Blob() to toggle to match transform() Also changed Blob to single click to show and hide controls. IMPROVEMENT BREAK made blobs drag when controls are active to match transform() and most editing tools and changed dblclickDrag parameter to move to match transform() and default move to true (set to false to turn off dragging) IMPROVEMENT BREAK added a handleSize parameter to Blob just before the toggle parameter that sets the handle size like with transform This defaults to 20 on mobile and 10 on not mobile ;-) BREAK changed the record() method of Blob to recordPoints() which matches format when creating a Blob IMPROVEMENT and then added new record() and set() methods that work together for updating already created Blobs This was so that Blob objects can be added to the zim.TransformManager just objects with transforms You will need to make a basic Blob with the correct number of points. Also added a setPoints() method that sets the points of an existing Blob that match the recordPoints Strategy - if you want to create Blobs from data use the recordPoints and pass that data into the points parameter. If you want to adjust an existing Blob then use the setPoints() method If you want to record more than just the point data - for instance, x, y, color, etc. then use record() and set() Or let the TransformManager handle it - it uses the new record() and set() similar to the transformControls record() and set() methods. Also adjusted zim.setMask() to help handle dragging of a Blob object as a mask and added an example to the setMask docs as well as an update to the snake at http://zimjs.com/code/zoo.html Updated the other animals too including adding clone() to lion assets for multiple lions, putting snake into a function for multiple snakes IMPROVEMENT - made zim.TransformManager also handle Blob objects as mentioned above - including the saving of, resizing and handling show and hide Added getQueryString() method to return the HTML query string ?var=val&var2=val2 as an object with matching properties Thanks Ami Hanya for the suggestion. IMPROVEMENT - added loadTimeout parameter to frame.loadAssets() with a default of 8000ms - this is how long to wait for assets Thanks Jonghyun Kim for suggestion and to CreateJS for already having that in the LoadQueue IMPROVEMENT - adjusted frame.asset() to have a default "Broken Image" object (ZIM Circles) when asset is not available. This can be adjusted with the new loadFailObj parameter for zim.Frame() - the object will have a type property of "EmptyAsset" Also made loadAssets() accept a ZIM DUO configuration object. Made loadAssets() work with files without extensions.

ZIM 6.4.0 IMPROVEMENT Added font support to zim.loadAssets() - for urls to fonts and also Google fonts Pass in font in format {font:name, src:url, type:string, weight:string, style:string} Any number of fonts can be passed in along with images, sound, etc. to loadAssets() The name is what you give it and you would use that name in a zim.Label({font:"name"}) If you use http at the start of the font src it ignores the path parameter for that font This allows you to use your own fonts in a directory but also add google fonts in the same loadAssets. This piggy backs on CreateJS FontLoader() but consolidates the format and combines with other assets to load Added a backdropClose parameter to zim.Pane() - thanks Ami Hanya for the prompting BREAK moved the container parameter to the end of zim.Pane as most panes are added to the stage. In the past, ZIM did not know the stage but now it has a ZimDefaultFrame with its stage

ZIM 6.3.3 UPDATED all ZIM Bits to version 6.3.3 using chaining, no namespace and loop throughout. Would recommend, this way of coding - see http://zimjs.com/code/tips.html Note: The ZIM Capture video series has not been updated and probably will not be. BREAK the scale() method has been depreciated and removed - use sca() which works the same way The new CreateJS has a scale property so ball.scale = 3; will set both scaleX and scaleY. It appears that scale will read the scaleX. So, no more scale() method in ZIM. Instead you can use sca() for chaining and then scale, scaleX and scaleY for properties. BREAK - changed parameter order for TextArea and Loader - sorry - moved frame parameter to end We now have zimDefaultFrame which will do in most cases and if we are in a second frame then pass that in to the frame paremeter Added focus() property to TextArea (thanks Armin for the prompting) before was textArea.tag.focus() piggy-backing on JS focus of HTML tag Adjusted OPTIMIZE, ANIMATE and DISTILL constants to work without the zim namespace with zns false - accidentally made them work when zns was true (so swapped) IMPROVEMENT Fixed a glitch in run() method of Sprite() to allow for replay of non-label Sprites since the change to normalized playback supporting non-sequential frames in SpriteSheets animations Adjusted zim.place() to return object for chaining IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zim.Rectangle to draw a normal rectangle if the corner is 0 was drawing a rounded rectangle with corner 0 then realized the border was not mitred as expected - it had little rounded corners instead of 90 degrees. Updated zim.Accessibility() to put a z-index back to -5 that was accidentally left at 5 for testing. Thanks Frank for the find.

ZIM 6.3.2 Added split property to Parallax object to center the input value (with mouseX this defaults to true - the others false) Thanks Raman for the prompting! IMPROVEMENT BREAK Adjusted Parallax parameter order to layers, damp, auto, stage and give the object the default frame's stage With the scrollX, scrollY chrome fix, this is a good time to adjust the stage parameter - it is the last of the ZIM classes left requiring a stage since the default frame addition. This was primarily due to parallax being its own module without Frame - but now ZIM has Distill, so it is not that big a deal to loose parity with the old stand-alone parallax module. Fixed mouseY to use stageH as default inMax rather than stageW (bug) Adjusted scrollX and scrollY to test for document.documentElement && document.documentElement["scroll"+side]) || document.body["scroll"+side] Before was assuming Safari only used documentElement and Chrome, Edge, Firefox worked fine - then Chrome seems to have changed its mind... The Chrome change will BREAK any previous Parallax scrolls with scrollbar (not mouse) so if you made one, upgrade to this ZIM and it will not be broken. IMPROVEMENT And newer ZIM has a Frame parameter called allowDefault - set that to true to let mobile scroll on canvas. Any old Sprite work with Parallax, will probably need to set {spriteSheet:spriteSheet} as that parameter position changed a while back.

ZIM 6.3.1 Added cache parameter to transform() and automatically cache the handles and cursors unless set to false Added a outerColor property to ZIM Frame() to set the color of the HTML body (background-color style) Added outerColor parameter to the end of the ZIM Frame() class Adjusted tweek in Sprite.run() to handle non-label input - that got lost with a previous change. IMPROVEMENT Added startType parameter to wiggle() defaults to both but can set to positive to start positive or negative to start negative Added onTop parameter to Blob so dragging it when controls gone defaults to brining the shape on top but can set to false to avoid this Added snapToPixel parameter to Tile that defaults to true - this helps moved Tiles not have tiny gap And added Tile parameters to documentation ;-) Fixed Blob() and transform() to work with dblclick on mobile to toggle edit mode. IMPROVEMENT

ZIM 6.3.0 Created a transform() method for display objects that makes resize and rotate with little square handles, etc. Added a TransformManager() class to handle multiple transforms and save / load data. This is quite spectacular and is heading towards visual editors - perhaps even for ZIM HEP (7). Thanks Ami Hanya for the idea and the prompting - hope this helps! Made centerReg and outline return obj even if bounds not set (logs a warning) Added stage.preventSelection = false; if frame's allowDefault parameter is true IMPROVEMENT This fully allows mobile swiping, etc. to scroll a page when on the canvas (thanks Jonghyun) The Manager lost its resizing when moved to support the new ResizeManager - that is back. Fixed remove for one object in Manager Switched zimify() to require third parameter true for adding scale - will be depreciating scale() due to conflict with new CreateJS 1.1 Start using sca() instead.

ZIM 6.2.2 Added frame.red to colors (thanks Alexa!) Fixed glitch in Sprite.run() with wait, waitedCall, waitedParams. These were just being passed through to zim.animate() but were left all as wait property names - oopsy. Added pauseAnimate() and stopAnimate() methods (and functions) to basically replace pauseZimAnimate and stopZimAnimate This depreciates the last two - which were titled that early on as dynamic methods before ZIM 4TH methods All dynamic methods and properties had ZIM in them to avoid conflict but now that methods are common, there is no need for ZIM in the method name ;-). Fixed scale() which was turned off for glitch with setMask Traced it to a possible conflict with canvas scale() method only with new CreateJS 1.0 and if other interactivity! - weird. So scale() is back - all is well.

ZIM 6.2.1 Updated defaults for mic with SoundWave for baseline (0) and magnify (1). Also cut the value off at 0 as it was going negative due to changes in ZIM 6.1.1 Glitch in zimify() when applying scale() - might be conflicting with CreateJS Shape and Canvas scale() method? So removed scale() from zimify() - use sca() instead. Adjusted ZIM Pages to set pages to original alpha rather than 1 after a transition.

ZIM 6.2.0 Updated ZIM to work with createjs.min.js the new CreateJS 1.0.0. IMPROVEMENT There were a few minor depreciations to take care of: getStage() became stage, setPaused() became pause, getNumChildren() became numChildren These were like that to support versions older than 2015 but there is no real use in that now. Note the gpu parameter of Frame that defaults to false. Set this to true to use StageGL which is the major part of the release. See bubbling video when we were preparing for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUjyUpYdsM8 Added zim.Noise() class that makes OpenSimplex noise for art, terrains, etc. http://zimjs.com/code/noise/ This is part of the Code module along with Damp and Proportion, etc. Added a zim.Tile() class to let you tile an object (or objects with a ZIM VEE value). You can choose set col and row parameters, add optional spacing and mirror as you tile. This extends a zim.Container() and is part of the Display module. Added a zim.smoothStep(min, max, input) function to the code module. This takes an input value and outputs a value between 0 and 1 that represents a transition between the min and max with easing at both ends. If you want the easing to be more pronounced, then reduce difference between min and max. If the value falls outside the min or max it is set to the min or max. Remember the return value is between 0 and 1 so you can multiply by max-min and add it to min to get a value at the original scale. IMPROVEMENT added drawImageData() method and imageData property to zim.Bitmap(). This allows you to draw pixel data into a Bitmap as you can with raw Canvas. There is also reference to the proxyCanvas and the proxyContext for the canvas the Bitmap uses as source. BREAK - there are new width and height parameters for Bitmap that come before the id parameter (breaks order).

ZIM 6.1.1 IMPROVEMENT Made Sprite.run() work with non-sequential frames and nested labels and next calls (see CreateJS SpriteSheet docs for format of animation data - which can be specified in a JSON file). The Dynamo was already working with these and now the run() method does as well. Adjusted cloned sprites to have different default ids - as pauseRun() was pausing all cloned sprites ;-) Made pauseRun and stopRun chainable. Added a flowthrough override for zik() by passing value as {noZik:value} which allows arrays and functions to be passed through as a value rather than something for zik to process. Updated SoundWave with the following IMPROVEMENTS to the parameters: baseline - removes this amount of amplitude from each data point (after operation is applied) magnify - multiplies the data point by this much (after the baseline is removed) reduce - subtracts this amount from each data point (after magnified)

ZIM 6.1.0 IMPROVEMENT Made zim.Accessibility work on iOS and mostly on Android - Stepper, Slider, Dial and ColorPicker still need work BREAK - changed applicationName to appName, and highlight to alwaysHighlight and the parameters following are prefixed with AH This is a solid week of programming for iOS Voice Over - visit on Slack for learnings and advice Still untested on stand-alone screen readers but good on Windows Narrator, and the mobile readers. Added currentValueEvent properties to Slider, Dial to get or set value and dispatch event if set changes value normally, if we are setting a value with code, we can do whatever we would do in the event at that time but with accessibility, on mobile, the options are being set by HTML and we want to trigger the event Added a text property to the RadioButton button containers Added a zim.ResizeManager() that extends zim.Manager and handles resizing Accessibility, Layout, Pages, Grid, Guide, TextArea and Loader This is just a small class - a few lines of code. Note - the Accesibility resize() will call any loader or text areas inside it... BREAK Added decimals parameter to Accessibility before frame parameter BREAK for the following: Adjusted Stepper type parameter to stepperType parameter to avoid conflict with new type property for all Display Objects Adjusted CheckBox type parameter to indicatorType parameter to avoid conflict with new type property for all Display Objects Adjusted Dial type parameter to indicatorType parameter to avoid conflict with new type property for all Display Objects Adjusted Indicator type parameter to indicatorType parameter to avoid conflict with new type property for all Display Objects BREAK - changed buttons property of RadioButtons to an array rather than container - to match buttons array in Tabs and Pad Made points property of Blob read and write instead of just read Added functionality for selectedIndex and stepperArray of Stepper to work with "number" stepperType Changed currentIndex to selectedIndex for Stepper - BREAKS - matches property name with other components (sorry) Updated docs for TextArea to include size parameter which was there all along... Adjusted Dial docs to read default 1 for step.

ZIM 6 Made ZIM Accessible - IMPROVEMENT Added zim.Accessibility() class to handle tabbing to any ZIM Display Object and send messages to Screen Readers http://zimjs.com/code/screenreader has a detailed example You basically pass zim.Accessibility() an array of objects (with optional titles) These will be tabbed to if they are on the stage and the title or a default title sent to the Screen Reader There is also a talk() method to be able to send a message to the Screen Reader at any time Gave all ZIM Display objects a type property that matches the class name as a String (case sensitive) BREAK - removed former (marked as temporary) work with tab order in Tabs, Stepper, and Frame - this is all replaced and updated in zim.Accessibility() IMPROVEMENT Adjusted Window to handle removing of Window while being rolled over (thanks Frank Los for the bug report) Added SLACK support discussions https://zimjs.slack.com Removed clone override from Swipe, Frame, and a few others that did not need it - just an oversight indicator.currentIndex is now constrained from -1 to num-1 where num is the number of lights Added readerDecimals parameter to Slider and Dial with default 2 decimal places the screen reader will read Added keyArrows parameter to Slider, Dial and ColorPicker for arrow key usage if in focus Added keyArrowsStep parameters to Slider, Dial so Screen Reader does not read all the decimals Adjusted bar of slider for positioning when pressed - was half a step off due to button registration change - IMPROVEMENT Also expanded hitArea on bar - IMPROVEMENT Added spellCheck parameter to TextArea - default true but can set to false Added an allowDefault parameter to zim.Frame that passes value through to CreateJS Touch.enable() method's third parameter Note: the third parameter does not seem to be working so an issue has been added to CreateJS GitHub - thanks Jonghyun Kim for working on this with us https://github.com/CreateJS/EaselJS/issues/898 This will also prevent Frame from using zil to keep the canvas still You can set allowDefault to false and then manually remove the zil events for specific key or scrollwheel functionality Although the ZIM namespace was removed in 5.5.0, it will be handy to remember that from version 6 on, the ZIM namespace is not required

ZIM 5.5.0 Added zimplify() global function. Note - this is different than zimify() zimplify() removes the requirement to use the zim namespace IMPROVEMENT Made full, fit and outside Frame template automatically call zimplify() You can control this with the new namespace parameter of zim.Frame() So for instance once you make a new zim.Frame() inside, you no longer need the zim namespace var circle = new Circle(rand(100,300), frame.green).center(stage); // will work Note: there is no zim namespace before Circle - used to be new zim.Circle() Note: do not call variables the same as zim functions: var rand = rand(100); // as rand() will no longer work after this! The zim namespace still works. zimplify(exclude) has an exclude parameter that lets you pass in a string command or an array of string commands and then these will require the zim namespace zim.wiggle() now supports ZIM DUO configuration object parameter (Thanks Frank Los for prompting)

ZIM 5.4.0 Added zim.gesture() with pan, pinch and rotate multitouch gestures for position, scale and rotation zim.gesture() features a bounding rect, min and max scales, rotational snapping and pan sliding. IMPROVEMENT This is a new method under the Methods module for all ZIM Display objects Also added associated zim.noGesture() and zim.gestureRect() Methods for removing some or all of the gestures (and paradoxically, adding them back) and dynamically setting the bounding rectangle for the gestures. Works with the touch parameter set to true for zim.Frame() which is the default setting.

ZIM 5.3.2 Adjusted zim.decimals() so that addZeros is the number of 0 spaces after the decimal addZeros is no longer a Boolean BREAKS and a new parameter, addZerosBefore, is the number of 0 spaces before the decimal Also added a time parameter that just turns the decimal dot into a colon to handle minutes and seconds Added a total property to the ZIM intervalObject for the zim.interval() that is -1 for infinite Added a "clear" transition type to Pages that fades out the old page then fades in the new page each at half the transition time Added transitioning property to pages so can test if pages are in transition (as they are cached) Adjusted docs - the radius of a zim.Circle is its real radius before scaling and setting the radius redraws the shape as opposed to width and height which are not necessarily the bounds but can be a scaled value Fixed multitouch with ZIM - was using: if (touch) createjs.Touch.enable(stage, true); And yet unfortunately, the second parameter is true for singleTouch! Ouch. IMPROVEMENT So now using: createjs.Touch.enable(stage); Adjusted zim.drag() so that drag Ticker is not removed if any touches are still active

ZIM 5.3.1 Added simple array of pages to Pages class if you do not need swipe data for each page Also, now use the default stage as the default for the holder of Pages and moved the holder parameter to the end BREAKS - this breaks the parameter order of the Pages class Since introducing the default stage, there are a few of these breaks. Swapped zim.Ticker.has(function, stage) as stage will default to default stage BREAKS parameter order BREAKS - moved the index to the second parameter of center and centerReg and the add to the last parameter as more often than not, we are using centerReg and center to add the object to the stage and the second most popular parameter is the level (index). Sorry, this breaks the parameter order for older apps Added an optional index value for Pages go() so can use page object or an index matching the pages array order ENHANCEMENT - added a check to zim.Ticker.add() so that it will not add the same function more than once added blendMode property to all zim Display objects that is the same as compositeOperation Fixed a glitch in Dial when min is greater than max - the ticks were not showing (used Math.abs() for tickNumber) Adjusted ColorPicker to default to drag of false if there is no buttonBar. ENHANCEMENT - fixed intermittent zim.interval() run-on after clear() ENHANCEMENT - zim.Emitter() had a faulty assignment to "this" in the added function affecting dispose() on multiple emitters Thanks Frank Los for reporting the bug

ZIM 5.3.0 Added ZIM SoundWave() to get frequencies from sounds or mic Also adjusted the order of ZIM and the Documentation to the following: WRAP - CODE - DISPLAY - METHODS - CONTROLS - FRAME - META Display (formerly Build) has the basic display elements, shapes and components Methods (formerly Create) have the methods that all display objects have like drag(), center(), etc. Controls (formerly Pages) have objects for layout, swiping, pages, motion, parallax, etc. Removed zim.addDisplayMembers() and fully replaced it with zimify() BREAK

ZIM 5.2.2 Adjusted interval doc description to include ZIM VEE and zik. Added color parameter to Pane in the docs. Adjusted glitch in Tabs when assigning widths to tabs without widths. Added ZIM VEE and zik to control length of Blob so random blobs can be made Added rotation, scaleX and scaleY read only properties to MotionController and adjusted so no object is needed - now we can use MotionController as pure data Adjusted zim.wiggle() to work on non display objects. Added time property in the Docs for the zim.interval obj return value

ZIM 5.2.1 Adjusted zim.Emitter to properly set pool number when ZIM VEE values passed for num and interval Now uses min of interval and max of num options - would recommend not pooling if using function values for either of these Also fixed removing of particles if pooling is turned off Adjusted the pause method of the zim.timeout return object - so unpausing plays the remaining time properly Made zim.animate and zim.move apply zik before splitting scale into scaleX and scaleY so aspect ratio is kept

ZIM 5.2.0 IMPROVEMENT Added StageGL support to ZIM Frame - as a gpu parameter which defaults to false - so set to true for WebGL CreateJS provides an isWebGL property of the stage you can use to get whether WebGL is being used Added gpuObject parameter to specify extra stageGL parameters Added refresh to resize for StageGL IMPROVEMENT Added nextFrame parameter to frame to pass interaction to next stage (for regular Stage and StageGL) Added zim.convertColor() to convert from string to hex or hex to string (StageGL color accepts hex only) Added spriteSheet parameter to zim.Sprite to accept a CreateJS spriteSheet Prior to this the Sprite would make a SpriteSheet from JSON or image and parameters input This was added because of the cool CreateJS SpriteSheetBuilder to dynamically create SpriteSheets from Shapes, etc. at run time Fixed the clone property of Sprite Adjusted Grid and Guide to auto add to obj parameter or the default stage - and fixed interval bug since zim.added() was used (thanks malus on GitHub) Fixed bug in zim.Frame where two full mode canvases were turning off Ticker stage updates on the first canvas when resized Fixed bug in zim.Frame was referencing keyword frame in key events when it should have been a reference to the object (that)

ZIM 5.1.0 Added a zim.Blob class to make editable blobs - with bezier curves This is added after zim.Triangle and is very similar to the other zim shapes but a blob ;-) Blob has a number of types of bezier curves that can be accessed by double clicking the points Edits to the Blob can be recorded with the record() method and then recreated by passing the recording into points parameter Created a global variable zimDefaultFrame for the first frame made zim.Ticker.add(function, stage) and other Ticker functions no longer require stage The zimDefaultFrame's stage will be used if left out of add() This is fine for the majority of times when there is only one stage BUT - if more frames are used then the associated stage needs to be passed to update that stage IMPROVEMENT Added a failed event to frame for when canvas is not supported (thanks Frank Los for the prompting) Added a type parameter to wiggle() so it can wiggle negative, positive or both (default) Adjusted zim.interval to unpause immediately as an option Made outline() mouseEnabled = false; Made ticks a zim.Shape rather than a createJS.shape so it has ZIM 4TH methods IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zim Emitter pause for the freeze - for some reason not reading stored that.zimEmitter... used local variable instead Added frame.altKey, frame.ctrlKey, frame.metaKey, frame.shiftKey properties to specify key states IMPROVEMENT Made Pane close and drag automatically resize TextArea and Loader objects (due to HTML overlay) IMPROVEMENT Adjusted Loader to save as png by default or can specify type parameter of "jpeg" for jpeg (png more widely accepted)

ZIM 5 ZIM VEE AND ZIK Introduced ZIM VEE (Roman Numeral 5) values that let you submit options for parameters to be chosen later (uses the new zik() function) Added zik() global function to pick randomly from an Array or a function result or a random number based on an object with min, max, integer, negative properties like the params for zim.rand() ZIM EMITTER AND WIGGLE Added zim.Emitter() to emit particles for fireworks, smoke, flames, falling objects, hair, grass, etc. This is a large class with 30 parameters some of which accept ZIM VEE values Examples can be found here: http://zimjs.com/code/particles Added zim.wiggle() to randomly go back and forth between the value passed to it - uses zik() and animate() ZIM ANIMATE AND MOVE Adjusted zim.move and zim.animate to accept ZIM VEE values for many of the parameters Including obj, set and props properties and overall parameters except for params, loopParams, waitParams, sequenceParams These will then be filtered through zik() to pick a random values This allows for a delay before a random value is picked - handy for passing info as a parameter Used by zim.Emitter() for instance to pass random properties and animate settings Added feature to zim.animate and zim.move to animate relative to current property value To do this the parameter value in the animation object is put in a string - can include negative sign Also works with the set parameter to set relative starting values Fixed rewind with set parameter active - hopefully that works - gets complicated zim.move() and zim.animate() - added waitedCall, loopWaitCall and rewindWaitCall to call functions after waiting and before loopWait and rewindWait zim.move() and zim.animate() - added waitedParams, loopWaitParams and rewindWaitParams to pass params to above (or callbacks receive the target) This BREAK parameter order - sorry! Hopefully by this time you are using ZIM DUO configuration object technique Adjusted rewindCall and loopCall to happen after rewindWait and loopWait - so this may BREAK as it was before the waits! Fixed a glitch in stopZimAnimate(ids) when removing animation with ids with single animations across multiple targets - now works GENERAL ADJUSTMENTS Fixed zim.Label used Number.isNaN which is not supported on mobile so changed to older double test. IMPROVEMENT Fixed a bug in zim.copy - an undeclared var was flattening nested objects Adjusted zim.copy to ignore objects that are not an object literal - now will copy references to zim objects rather than breaking Adjusted zim.Triangle() adjust parameter to move shape rather than registration - could BREAK location of triangles as usually you are adjusting the centerReg and that just was negating the adjustment Added rotation to cloning of props - this was an oversight BREAK - but in a good way adjusted clone for shapes to clone latest color and border properties (and width and height for Rectangle and radius for Circle) possible BREAK Added read only framerate property to docs for zim.Ticker - use setFPS() to set framerate Added a has(stage, function) static method to zim.Ticker to check if the Ticker has that function for that stage Fixed a glitch in zim.interval where it was occasionally not pausing due to race condition Adjusted obj.clear to before the next() function in zim.timeout to prevent errors on occasion Added an zim.added() function and ZIM 4TH method to check if object has been added to the stage CreateJS has an "added" event that triggers when an object is added to another container but this container may not be on the stage. added polls with a setInterval every 100ms to see if the object has a stage property Once it does then it calls the callback and removes the interval Adjust scaleTo to take into account current scale - this could BREAK code if you had accommodated this already Adjusted zim.rand() with respect to a=0, b=0 explicit parameters was returning Math.random() now returns 0. Only no parameters return Math.random() - might BREAK

ZIM 4.9.2 Added zim.angle(x1, y1, x2, y2) function to find angle between two points relative to positive x axis part of the code module after the zim.dist() function - these are functions not methods. Added zim.placeReg(obj, id) function and zim 4th method to place locate a registration point relative to the obj this then gives an output in the console as you drag and drop a little cross indicator (like place()) Adjusted zim.place() to output x and y and pos() data IMPROVEMENT Adjusted the zim.Label to be up one pixel in the y on a button IMPROVEMENT Fixed a bug in the Window where multiple windows would scroll together - missed a var declaration - oops (thanks Frank Los) IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zim.Pages to remove its children at the start - except for the currentPage (thanks Laura Warr) IMPROVEMENT Adjusted zim.Pages to not accept swipes or button clicks to go() until transition is finished (thanks Meagan Peat) The ZIM Pages example http://zimjs.com/code/pages has been updated to modern zim code showing Pages, Layouts, Grids, Guides, and MVC Fixed bug in frame.makeCircles - we had removed the frame module colors in favor of frame.blue, etc. and not adjusted makeCircles

ZIM 4.9.1 Added a resize() method to the Window to resize the dimensions without scaling the content This allows independent scaling of the content to fit the width for instance in a long vertical scroll Added a minSize property to the indicator property of the Window - already had the size property For example: indicator.size = 6; // the width if vertical or the height if horizontal indicator.minSize = 12; // for the height if vertical or the width if horizontal Added scrollwheel support to Window Firefox has a canvas redraw glitch where it flashes unscaled/unpositioned content on full template resize Implemented a fix where over 40ms the ticker.update is set to false and at 20ms the resize happens It seems the requestAnimationFrame is catching the stage in a null dimension state or something... Anyway - only on Firefox with full mode and a Ticker running - and fixed now. IMPROVEMENT Adjusted Pad to default to an array of keys that match the rows and cols (of course!) Adjusted Label to properly valign bottom and center when text is more than one line CHANGE Also adjusted Label so bounds change when the text changes

ZIM 4.9.0 Added Loader class to upload files from desktop to canvas zim.Bitmap object and also save to new window Added TextArea class to create an editable text box - it uses the HTML textarea tag and CreateJS DOMElement Added outlineColor and outlineWidth to Label IMPROVEMENT Added selectedIndex to ColorPicker docs Adjusted a few bugs with arrows in vertical steppers - hopeful that is all fixed - quite complex Made alpha change dispatch change event as well from ColorPicker IMPROVEMENT Added return object of the animation target for a series Fixed doubleclick glitch in zim animate created when a delay in protect was placed for animation series IMPROVEMENT Added dashed parameter to Rectangle, Circle, Triangle, and Button and made either borderColor or borderWidth create a border and make the other parameter have a default and made shapes be transparent if no color is specified AND a border is specified BREAK otherwise passing null for the color will default to black (as it has all along) This was a pain when you wanted a border without a fill - you had to set the fill to "rgba(0,0,0,0)" Fixed Label clone when there is a backing - must clone the backing too ;-) Rearranged vertical Slider to have min at bottom and max at top BREAK

ZIM 4.8.2 Added tab control in frame with tab highlight, highlight object and a number of parameters IMPROVEMENT This is demonstrated in the LeaderBoard of http://zimjs.com/code/zong Will be expanding tab control - currently steppers and tabs - although any display object can be added manually to the tabOrder. So now tabbed to objects can receive an Indicator Looking into screen reader support as well - although many things made in ZIM are visual. Updated zim.fit() to take into account bound x and y when fitting.

ZIM Game 1.0.1 LeaderBoard has integrated key and gamePad controls for entering name IMPROVEMENT An editing page has been set up to update five security options IMPROVEMENT Automatic bad word filter has been added to the ZIM data mode IMPROVEMENT

ZIM 4.8.1 Stepper updates - added press, rightForward, downForward parameters to Stepper BREAK changed arrows to represent visual arrows - so set to false to hide them added arrowKeys parameter to use or not use arrow keys - default true changed default vertical forward direction to down unless numbers and then it is up can change these with rightForward and downForward parameters made it so mousedown immediately advances stepper (unless press is false) IMPROVEMENT this was an oversight - got missed when implementing hold parameters or perhaps we did not want it to advance immediately if users are wanting to hold drag backwards... Adjusted Label to accommodate backing in its bounds calculations - assumes if backing the bounds are that of the backing Removed the default ZIM Wonder server parameter value as it runs the risk of being out of date IMPROVEMENT Implemented a zimserver_url.js file that will always hold up-to-date domain:port urls for ZIM Socket, ZIM Wonder, ZIM Distill In doing so swapped the server and notes parameters so this BREAKS previous signature - as server is required and notes is optional

ZIM 4.8.0 Added zim.GamePad() to handle game controller input for buttons and sticks IMPROVEMENT Added zim.MotionController() to handle moving a target object with the following types: IMPROVEMENT mousedown, mousemove, keydown, gamebutton, gamestick, swipe, manual includes adjustable speed, damping, flipping or rotation, key/button mapping, firstPerson mode, etc. Damp and ProportionDamp now return the object for chaining

ZIM 4.7.3 Changed zim.Ticker to use requestAnimationFrame with default no throttle IMPROVEMENT Added setTimingMode() static method to Ticker to go back to synched or timeout modes setFPS(mobile, desktop) is still available but can lead to less than smooth performance (NOTE: the initial launch of 4.7.3 was not quite right so we patched it a few days after) added zim.sign(num) to return -1, 0, 1 added zim.constrain(num, min, max, negative) to constrain number to within and including bounds added zim.dist(x1, y1, x2, y2) to calculate the distance between two points Adjusted Frame to stage.update() on full mode resize IMPROVEMENT After canvas adjustment a few updates ago this was causing flicker or things disappearing until next stage.update() The stage will not update in full mode on resize if zim.OPTIMIZE is set to true You will have to manually update the stage in your resize event function to see anything on the stage Adjusted zim.Pane to not do anything to the text when you change it If you want the text to be centered always, then start off with a zim.Label with align:center

ZIM 4.7.2 frame.loadAssets() now returns a zim.Queue object where we can capture events for a specific loading Also there is an isLoading property on the Queue and reference to the createjs.LoadQueue with a preload property The frame also captures these events for all queues as before and now has an overall isLoading property. Thanks to Frank Los for prompting the changes and helping with the solution. loadAssets() has a new time parameter to force the preload to wait at least this long in ms. This can be used in testing and for when you want a minimum time to show a preload message Added a showing property to zim.Waiter() and zim.Pane() You can now loop an animation inside an animation series forever - it just will not proceed to the next animation The set parameter for zim.move() and zim.animate() now lets you set scale (the convenience property for scaleX and scaleY) Went back two updates to fix the loopCall parameter which was not calling when looping forever since the change to the loopCall to not call on the last loop - use call for that (nice sentence!) Added a zim.Dynamo() class to handle dynamic Sprite animation You pass the Dynamo a Sprite, a base frames per second an optional label or start end frames The Dynamo should be able to parse any type of CreateJS spritesheet data including nested animation labels It turns these into an array of frames animates through the frames with percentSpeed available to adjust dynamically The Dynamo also allows you to pause with a time delay or a on a frame number - and of course, unpause Added a zim.Accelerator() class to handle dynamically changing speed and pausing of Dynamo and Scroller objects This allows you to control the objects from one place to dynamically change the speed of a scene Upddated the Scroller class to allow for pausing and percentSpeed And the Scroller no longer has to be added to the stage to work and in either case, the scroller backgrounds do not have to be on the stage to make a Scroller See http://zimjs.com/code/zide/ for an example

ZIM 4.7.1 Added zim.interval(time, call, total, immediate), zim.timeout(time, call) that use requestAnimationFrame Added zim.siz(width, height, only) for chainable size method with either width or height, will scale the other to keep proportion unless only is set to true Removed Dashed Lines - as CreateJS now does a dashed stroke. (BREAK) Fixed Frame in full mode to resize canvas dimensions rather than create large canvas (IMPROVEMENT) due to unexpected repositioning in apple devices (of course). For instance, how can a canvas with no left and top be moved hundreds of pixels off the screen to the left when switching orientations? Even when left and top are set to 0px; Get your act together Apple! Problem is... it is a problem for ages. Added a delay parameter to frame to make mobile devices redo a resize event to catch proper dimensions - default 500ms made Pane and Waiter show() and toggle() chainable adjusted zim.rand() to convert parameters that are NaN to 0 Adjusted zim.animate() and sprite.run() to let inner animation series loop forever this will make the looping forever series the last animation to run in the series added frame.clear (alpha 0), frame.white, frame.black, frame.faint to colors - faint is alpha .01 good for invisible interactivity

ZIM 4.7.0 major update to zim.animate() to run animation series also better id control for pauseZimAnimate() and stopZimAnimate() IMPROVEMENT now documented as proper methods and with optional global control on zim directly. removed zimTween from move() and animate() and added reference to zimTweens (BREAK) removed stopZimMove and pauseZimMove - use stopZimAnimate and pauseZimAnimate for all (BREAK) adjusted loopCall to not run after the last loop - that is when call runs (BREAK) changed rewind props to be set after initial wait added set parameter to move() and animate() to set properties at start of animation updated docs for move() and animate() Sprite.run() uses new animation series and stopRun() and pauseRun() use animation id system. Sprite has json parameter which replaces spriteSheet parameter BREAK The SpriteSheet is now made internally from the json can still pass in rows and cols as well instead of json added makeID() method to code module frame now gives the stage read only stage.width and stage.height properties added single param (default false) to zim Dictionary added reg() and sca() methods for consistent shortcuts to regX, regY, scaleX and scaleY

ZIM 4.6.0 added addTo() and removeFrom() functions / ZIM 4TH methods these are wrappers for addChild() / addChildAt() and removeChild() except they are consistent with center() and centerReg() where the obj comes first and the container is in the brackets circle.addTo(stage); // rather than stage.addChild(circle); circle.center(stage); circle.centerReg(stage); circle.removeChild(stage); This also allows us to chain objects easier var circle = new zim.Circle().addTo(stage); var circle = new zim.Circle().addTo(stage).drag(); Added pos(x, y), mov(x, y), alp(alpha), rot(rotation), ske(skewX, skewY) functions / ZIM 4TH methods chainable functions for common properties (a little shorter than set() method) Note: pronounce mov() as "mawv" to differentiate from move() mov() sets relative position in x and y - like circle.x += 100; var circle = new zim.Circle().center(stage).mov(100); // shifts shifts to right 100 Added zim Swiper() class to Pages module to act like invisible slider with damping Overhauled zim Sprite() to include the SpriteSheet and data creation also added a run() method to animate the Sprite over time (see advanced ZIM Capture) This gives two line Sprite animation with better control (BREAKS signature) It still works with a CreateJS SpriteSheet if desired. And optionally, you can pass in the JSON for the spritesheet. Added keydown and keyup events to frame - wrappers for window events Pages now dispatches a pagetransitioned event - not pageTransitioned (BREAKS) removed secondary reference to colors in frame (BREAKS) added frame.gray (already have frame.grey - these two are the same) arrow keys for stepper now move secondary steps if in cross direction also made stepper secondary arrows only show up for type of number adjusted loop() to pass index, total, min, max, obj consistently as final params to call (BREAKS) also added internal bounds to loop to handle out of bound step, start and end values adjusted loop documentation to be more clear - should be the end of loop adjustments corrected the zim Swipe docs to not include container properties corrected frame variable (should have been this) to fix bug in strict mode adjusted scaleTo() to scale to 100% in x and y when both are null - still default "fit" so just using rect.scaleTo(stage) would fit the rect on the stage previously, passing in no percentages would not scale at all. adjusted typo in parallax Docs - scrolly should have been scrollY rand() now has negative parameter to let you choose from a positive or negative range ZIM Frame loadAssets() has been adjusted to include extra file types: JSON, Text, XML, and SVG data can be loaded (as per CreateJS PreloadJS info)

ZIM 4.5.0 added a from parameter to zim.move and animate you can set the from parameter to true to animate to current values from properties provided in obj sequence in move and animate now works on a container as well as an array added sequenceReverse parameter (BREAKS parameter order!!!) to handle sequencing through children (or elements) backwards added a zim.ANIMATE global constant to prevent move and animate from running (eg. while testing) added a check to move and animate for targets not on stage - to avoid the obtuse Ticker error message IMPROVEMENT: updated Stepper with a bunch of new parameters: hold, holdDelay, holdSpeed, drag, dragSensitivity, dragRange, type, min, max, step, step2, arrows2, arrows2Scale, keyEnabled also set keys work on Stepper only if they have focus or are first made added focus property to Stepper changed the strokeColor to borderColor - BREAKS old code... (sorry - now we consistently use border rather than stroke) adjusted stepper to not return when setting currentIndex and index is same as currentIndex (might have changed the stepperArray) also made setting the stepperArray update the currentIndex which will refresh the view adjusted slider, dial, stepper currentValue to return if value set to undefined zim.decimals(num, decimals, addZeros) will add zeros to decimal place if missing - for presentation IMPROVEMENT: set drag to work if mouse is outside stage - on now by default - should have been on (oversight) added a fadeTime parameter to Waiter and Pane to fade in and out for the provided milliseconds added step, start and end parameters to zim.Loop took away total parameter (BREAKS) added ZIM DUO to loop now that parameters are longer... gave Circle a radius property get / set - that redraws the circle (not scales it like width and height) Circle, Rectangle, Triangle parameter change - BREAKS zim DUO for the following: color (not fill), borderColor (not stroke) and borderWidth (not strokeSize) also the methods setFill(), setStroke() and setStrokeColor have been removed (BREAKS) added borderColor and borderWidth properties - already have a color property changed the borderThickness properties in Button and Window to borderWidth to match (and match css) - BREAKS zim DUO for these added width, height, fullscreen parameters to zgo and shifted modal parameter to end (BREAKS) made rand() set integer to false if a or b are not integers added backing color to ColorPicker fixed little glitch in animate() ticker paramater Reordered EXAMPLES so ZIM 4TH versions come before the traditional zim functions
