morphtext 0.1.0

Text that morphs letter by letter, outline into outline: a light word turns bold, a serif turns sans, one word becomes another or flows into an icon. Built on morphnext's outline engine.

0.1.0

First release.

• MorphText: text morphing letter by letter, driven by progress (an Animation<double>, as morphnext's MorphIcon takes it), between any two styles (weight, size, colour, slant, or one font family into another) and, with toText, from one word into another. Plain text at either end.
• AnimatedMorphText: springs to each new text and style with morphnext's MorphSprings.snappy by default (re-exported; any SpringDescription works), reversing mid-flight from where it is and keeping its velocity; or along an optional curve over a fixed duration. Plain text at rest, faded in over the outlines in the last of the motion (handoff, 0.1 by default) so nothing changes after it lands. MorphText and MorphBetween take handoff too, 0 by default.
• MorphContent, MorphBetween and AnimatedMorph: text and icons morph into each other (a word flows into an icon, an icon into another), read from any bundled icon font; each end is pixel for pixel a Text or Icon.
• Letters pair by a weighted edit distance; leftover letters shrink to or grow from a point.
• Extracted from Numina, where it carries a stone's name from Today's light title to its card's bold one.
