|
|
I am writing a display of a system for delivering fluids. As part of
the display I want to show flow in the pipes. Ideally the flow would
be shown with an animation either using an animated gif or a
sophisticated draw routine to show flow in those pipe where fluid is
flowing. Anyone have some bright ideas - I don't want to reinvent the
wheel if I don't have to.

You could use java.awt.BasicStroke to render a dashed line, and change that
dash pattern as you animate it, that would be quite simple.

how about animated chevrons >>>>>. If you alternate colours, you can get a
neat effect by colour cycling.
