Question

Also is there a way to combine pan and rotate animations I m using coroutines to `animatePanBy` and `animateRotateBy` but one runs then the other after the first has finished So the object pans across then rotates I d like the object to pan while it is rotating Is this possible somehow Thanks Goodnight all

Are you starting the animations concurrently

Kebbin · Answer

Yes Well as I understand it anyway Launching two coroutines one after the other I just thought they would then operate on the object concurrently but maybe the way the functions are setup they maybe be blocking or something I wondered if I needed to use something like a Transform I m sure I ve seen in a tutorial objects rotating and changing shape simultaneously Thanks

This is what I reverted to ``` onPointerEvent PointerEventType Press if this currentEvent buttons isSecondaryPressed sendData 110 2 coroutineScope launch state animatePanBy Offset x y offsetXY state animateRotateBy 0f rotation ```

This was what I tried and expected it would have my desired simultaneous animations effect ``` onPointerEvent PointerEventType Press if this currentEvent buttons isSecondaryPressed sendData 110 2 coroutineScope launch state animatePanBy Offset x y offsetXY coroutineScope launch state animateRotateBy 0f rotation ```

The multiple launch calls is generally the correct approach for something like this However if `animatePanBy` and `animateRotateBy` are operating on the same state object then I would guess they might be doing some sort of internal synchronization to explicitly prevent this use case If you stored offset and rotation in separate animated states the concurrent coroutines should work as expected I m not sure what `state` is here and how those animate functions are implemented they don t look like they re from the Compose stdlib so I can t say for sure

OK Thanks for your thoughts Might give me another line of testing I ll try and cogitate what you mean by storing them in separate states and see how I go
