Move to Target Parameters#

  • Constructor : - Mobject.generate_target() - Mobject.target

Apply Method Parameters#

  • method : The method to apply. It must be the method of a Mobject and must return a Mobject

  • *args : Arguments to be passed to the method

  • *kwargs : Meta-parameters to be passed to the Animation

Move to Target#

from manimlib import *

class AnimationMoveToTarget(Scene):
    def construct(self):

        square = Square()
        square.generate_target()
        square.target.shift(2*LEFT)
        self.add(square)
        self.play(MoveToTarget(square))

from manim import *

class AnimationMoveToTarget(Scene):
    def construct(self):

        square = Square()
        square.generate_target()
        square.target.shift(2*LEFT)
        self.add(square)
        self.play(MoveToTarget(square))

Apply Method#

from manimlib import *

class CustomSquare(Square):
    def custom_method(self, color):

        self.set_color(color)
        self.shift(2 * RIGHT)
        return self


class AnimationApplyMethod(Scene):
    def construct(self):

        square = CustomSquare()
        self.add(square)
        self.play(ApplyMethod(square.custom_method, YELLOW))

from manim import *

class CustomSquare(Square):
    def custom_method(self, color):

        self.set_color(color)
        self.shift(2 * RIGHT)
        return self


class AnimationApplyMethod(Scene):
    def construct(self):

        square = CustomSquare()
        self.add(square)
        self.play(ApplyMethod(square.custom_method, YELLOW))
