Animated Switcher

The Animated Switcher widget provides a smooth transition between two child widgets. When the Show First Child property changes, the widget animates the transition from one child to the other, providing a visually appealing user experience. This is useful for showing different states of a UI element, such as a loading spinner transitioning to content, or toggling between two views.

Properties

Property	Description
Animation Duration	The duration of the animation in milliseconds. This controls how long the transition between the two children takes.
Show First Child	A boolean value that determines which child is currently visible. If true, the first child is shown; otherwise, the second child is shown.

Default Properties

The Animated Switcher widget supports all Default Properties.

Best Practices

• Use the AnimatedSwitcher to create smooth transitions between two states of a UI element.

• Keep the animation duration short to avoid a sluggish user experience.

• For more complex animations, consider using the AnimationBuilder widget.
