\title QML Animation
Animation in QML is done by animating properties of objects. Properties of type
-real, int, color, rect, point, and size can all be animated.

-As you can see from the above example, transitions make use of the same basic animation classes introduced
-above. However, you generally use a different set of properties when working with transitions. In the example,
-no \c target or \c property has been specified. Instead, we have specified \c matchProperties,
-which (along with \c matchTargets) acts as a selector to determine which property changes to animate;
-in this case, we will animate any x,y properties that have changed on any objects.
+As can be seen, transitions make use of the same basic animation classes introduced above.
+In the above example we have specified that we want to animate the \c x and \c y properties, but have not
+specified the objects to animate or the \c to values. By default these values are supplied by the framework --
+the animation will animate any \c targets whose \c x and \c y have changed, and the \c to values will be those
+defined in the end state. You can always supply explicit values to override these implicit values when needed.
-QML transitions also have selectors to determine which state changes a transition should apply to:

In the following snippet, we specify that we want the x position of redRect to be animated
whenever it changes. The animation will last 300 milliseconds and use an InOutQuad easing curve.
