Description Matthias Wienand CLA 2015-02-06 09:06:20 EST 
Animation support is needed for the following transitions within Zest.FX:
- Node's position changes (due to a layout-pass)
- Zooming in/out
- Nodes are created/removed
- Edges are created/removed
Comment 1 Alexander Nyßen CLA 2016-02-03 05:01:25 EST 
Animated undo/redo is captured in general by bug #481647 (while these issues here are related to "execute"). 

We should cover fading for semantic zoom, and animation for position changes due to auto-layout (when a new node is added, when a node is hidden/shown, etc.). Creation and removal of nodes and edges IMHO does not have to be animated (while the resulting layout pass should).
