ComplexValueTracker

Qualified name: manim.mobject.value\_tracker.ComplexValueTracker

class ComplexValueTracker(value=0, **kwargs)

Bases: ValueTracker

Tracks a complex-valued parameter.

The value is internally stored as a points array [a, b, 0]. This can be accessed directly to represent the value geometrically, see the usage example. When the value is set through animate, the value will take a straight path from the source point to the destination point.

Examples

Methods

get_value	Get the current value of this ComplexValueTracker as a complex number.
set_value	Sets a new complex value to the ComplexValueTracker.

Attributes

animate	Used to animate the application of any method of self.
animation_overrides
depth	The depth of the mobject.
height	The height of the mobject.
width	The width of the mobject.
