In it Roland Wagner talks about, among other things, fading in and out menus based on CSS3 animations and relocating widgets via drag and drop. I was super interested and immediately went looking through the help files and through the Codesys store for examples. Or really anything online. I haven't found anything, but maybe I'm looking up the wrong terms.
How would I implement menu fades and drag and dropping of widgets?
I could imagine that for the drag and drop I would have a boolean variable change to true while the finger is pressed, unlocking the X and Y coordinates which are set by another variable. Then somehow read the x and y coordinates of the finger or touch pen and have the widgets X and Y values change to match, possibly with an offset of some sort. But is there a different more official way or library for this?
I'm not at all sure how to do menu fades. Is that a transition animation between visualizations or is it 1 visualization with different elements that have their opacity changed as you push different buttons? Is there another way to do that, a library, example project etc?
Oh now... I seem to have found what I was looking for. It's the "Using Client Animation" tutorial in the online help.

I watched a isualization preview video Codesys put on Youtube that someone linked to in this forum.
