Wheelnav.js – spinning ever
- hughes 11y agoTerrible performance on mobile... Couldn't tell it was animating :(
- dandare 11y agoVery nice except for those easings.
- Mithaldu 11y agoIn Chrome these all animate quite choppily.
- thebouv 11y agoReally? In my Chrome they're super smooth. Version 42.0.2311.90 (64-bit), Mac OSX. I was just about to compliment on that actually.
- tmikaeld 11y agoI'm on the same, lags enormously... Checking on Task Manager, it consume 100% CPU, GPU about 7%.
- thebouv 11y agoFunny, I played with it extensively after your post, went through the examples, clicked the hell out of them. All still fine. I blame sun spots.
- tmikaeld 11y agoDid you check the task manager? May i ask your specs? I'm suspecting that GPU acceleration is not working on all Mac's with Chrome.
- metamet 11y agoAnd moving the mouse around stutters the animation.
- sbilstein 11y agoSame, chrome on an mbp.
- paulirish 11y agoIf you turn on "Show Paint Rectangles" you see the entire SVG element is being repainted on every change, including rotating. Chrome doesn't handle this animation as good as it could, so in the meantime, they should to adopt a technique described by Charlie Marsh here: http://www.crmarsh.com/svg-performance/ http://www.crmarsh.com/svg-performance/
- hobarrera 11y agoAs they do on Firefox.
- thebouv 11y agoNice idea and love the look, but not going to share with my designers lest they think we can start putting wheel-styled menus in everything we do just cause it's pretty. This would be cool in certain UIs, but not always the best UX decision I wouldn't think.
- hitgeek 11y agoi like the wheelnav with submenus. The tablet version of OneNote using a similar thing for contextual menus that I found very usable. The animations are very choppy on my Thinkpad when not plugged in, and the easing is all over the place. I'd like to see some examples with simple animations
- afandian 11y agoI feel sick edit: this is a joke, right?
- UUMMUU 11y agoI think it's more of a proof of concept than something you'd really want to throw on a site. Also, I'd say there could be some potential uses like for a music player or for a site that's less app and more website.
- afandian 11y agoI thought it was a joke because of the typeface and choice of colours and ... well how it looks. It just looks silly. Here's what I see mid-animation: http://i.imgur.com/wqD0v9h.png http://i.imgur.com/wqD0v9h.png If I were a web designer that's what I'd do to make fun of the concept. Maybe it is serious.
- hitekker 11y agoWhat a whimsical widget! Not sure if I have a use-case for it, but it looks quite neat.
- UUMMUU 11y agoVery cool! I could see the music player being pretty useful but the animation seems to be off when you toggle it opened/closed; almost like the icons are being overlaid on each other. That cirle wheel nav with submenus is so cool though. Very neat!
- UUMMUU 11y agoNot to beat a dead horse but why was this downvoted? I thought downvotes on HackerNews were to be reserved for offensive/destructive comments? If my comment above offended you, please explain why instead of just downvoting it.
- tonyhb 11y agoI like the consistent sarcasm throughout the website and these comments. I can't help but feel this is tongue in cheek.
- swalsh 11y agoThis is real cool, It could still use some polish, but i'd definitely love to use it in the future.
