jQuery Forum

anyone can help me?

How is someone *possibly* supposed to answer that open ended and vague
question?

The jquery framework in past, it use the fx animation, it's true?

Acaz,
I think you should consider looking into this yourself. The animations
provided by jQuery, while basic, are quite smooth and perform well. If
you feel that the ones provided by MooTools perform better, then I would
urge you to take the time to investigate it and consider offering
patches should you find a good solution.
Best,
Rey

LOL. :D
Thanks Scott.
Rey...

I'm not trolling
at least today I'm not ;-
, but mootools' effects are
smoother in at least some cases. I've switched to mootools for some
websites just because of that, even though I really prefer working with
jQuery.
Try using scrollTo
diagonally in both frameworks to see one example
ofcourse, this might just be the scrollto plugin's fault
.
I refrained from replying because the OP seemed trollish, but he has a
point, IMHO.

lol, "trollish"

That's certainly possible. Again, for me the animations provided by
jQuery have been great. I'd give you the same feedback in that if there
are issues, I'd urge you to see if you can pinpoint them and provide a
patch. That would be a great help to the project.

Celeron? BAH!
They need to kill that beast.
In openSuse, on a not so slow machine ;
running KDE, Firefox 3.5.5
with only the cookie monster plugin activated, I noticed a slight lag
in the mootools sample.
Some of this perceived speed difference may be a direct result of
plugins, or proxy issues in the browsers themselves.
The biggest noticeable changes were 2 to 3 and 4 to 1. The direct
vertical and horizontal slides were fine in both jQuery and Mootools.

I have a 'slow computer' that is 6 years old hardware, has been
upgraded from windows 3.1 and upward, to the current XP without ever a
wipe and reinstall. I figure I'm a worst-case scenario if there ever
was one. ;-
I routinely find pages loading extremely slow from javascript-intense
sites. But these test cases run equally-smooth with jquery or
mootools, for me.
I would throw out another possibility here - the particular javascript
engine that the browser is using. Might want to check that.
NOTE: I
just tried to figure out what version I am using, but danged if I can
find anything that tells me what version it is. Give me a pointer
what to look for and I'll look again if you want me to
.

How the plugin is written is a huge part. I have jealously noticed in
the past that mootools animations typically seem to be smoother,
especially on slower machines and cruddy browsers, but I stick with
jQuery because I really like the syntax & community. However, I agree
that no one has really provide any proof that mootools is smoother.
Sorry Jonathan, in the demo you show above, we don't have a good
comparison because I can see already that there are scrollbars in FF
for jQuery demo and no scrollbars in the mootools, and I'm sure
scrollbars will have an effect. Also Karl makes a good point about
easing...there is some psychology going on here.
But to give credit to the demo somewhat, here is what I saw. The
mootools looks a lot better on my FF on macbook pro snow. The jQuery
is choppy for diagonals and seems to be moving like its on a
staircase. But in safari, things look pretty smooth for both.
Browser's always come into play. Fellow developers and I concur that
FF is becoming rather laggy these days and is falling far behind
webkit stuff in performance, even with extensions disabled...sorry to
say because developers need and bleed with firefox and firebug. If I
had time, I would do what Rey suggests and break down that stuff to
really file a proper complaint with the FF team. I know I can't
really demand and expect a solution for a open source project unless I
contribute in some real practical way
not just mouthing off
.

, but there's a huge difference on a colleague's G4
OS X 10.4,
> Firefox 3.5.5
, so try to find a slow computer to test this on.
Jonathan, thanks for doing the demo. Pretty nice demo, by the way!
I tried it on my system, but it's a fast Dell notebook running Windows
7. The demo ran smoothly on Firefox 3.5, IE8, Opera 10, and Chrome 3.

Hi everyone, i´m from brazilian, my english is too bad. Sorry for bad
questions.
But, ok ok, This depends on the computer hardware, engine of the
browser, how the plugin is written and more...
But, another question, The algorithm of animation that has been made
in jquery to give the best quality in this regard?
I want to say this, the jquery it was done with lower quality
animation to preserve the other strengths?
Or Not?
Because i have a project to build, and smoothing is very important to
me. I like jquery, but sometimes i see mootools more smooth than
jquery.
And the other animations frameworks, anyone know if they are better in
this point?

Hi everyone, i will do some tests with this librarys, i will elevate
the CPU usage and tests in the major browsers.

Compare the code, the effects. You decide.
Why mootools is more smooth than jquery?

It is, at least in my FF 3.5.7 on Win 7, but I haven't the slightest clue as to why. Thanks for sharing those demos.

They seem about the same to me as well, FF3.5.6 on Win7

I'm using Windows 7 Firefox 3.5, mootools is great, is more smoth, is
more sweet than jquery animations, i don't know why.
I'm tested in Chrome and the animations was great for both, but in
firefox not.
And Opera, mootools is more sweet than jquery.
Scott Sauyet: I'm trying to get information.
Is just for learning this interesting point.
What the matematics logic of both in animation framework.
They use the same logic?
IS JUST FOR LEARNING THIS INTERESTING POINT.

I realize this post is older but for anyone just reading it I'd like to point out that the jsfiddle links above are labelled wrong.  Please double check which framework is included when reviewing the jsfiddle demo.  IMO the jquery animation looks smoother.
