<title>Card Panes</title>
</properties>
<body>
<p>
Card panes are the most basic of the navigation components. They present a simple
"card stack" of components, only one of which is visible at a time.
</p>
<p>
Unlike other navigation components, card panes don't include any "chrome" or intrinsic
means of navigation - all selection management must be performed programmatically by
the caller. While this imposes more responsibility on the developer, it is also the most
flexible, giving the developer complete control over the navigation experience.
</p>
<p>
By default, the preferred size of a card pane is the maximum of the preferred widths
and heights of the cards, and each card is sized to fill the entire space. However,
card panes can also dynamically resize to match the preferred size of the currently
selected card. Additionally, a transition effect can be applied to the selection change
event, providing a more visually engaging experience when navigating between cards.
<tt>CardPane</tt> currently supports the following transition effects:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Crossfade</li>
<li>Horizontal slide ("wipe" left/right)</li>
<li>Vertical slide ("wipe" up/down)</li>
<li>Horizonal Flip</li>
<li>Vertical Flip</li>
<li>Zoom</li>
</ul>
<p>
Note that, by default, "directional" transitions (such as slide and zoom) will appear
to move forward when transitioning from a lower card index to a higher card index, and
vice versa. This means that, when moving from the last card to the first card, for
example, the transition will appear to move forward rather than backward. Since this
may not always be the desired user experience, card panes can also be specified as
circular, preserving the apparent direction when the selection wraps.
</p>
<p>
The following application demonstrates the behavior of <tt>CardPane</tt>:

</startup-properties>
</application>
<p>
The BXML source for the application is shown below. A set of buttons is provided to
allow the user to control the styles that affect the card pane's presentation;
specifically, "sizeToSelection" and "selectionChangeEffect". The card pane itself is
contained within a <tt>FlowPane</tt> so that its response to changes in these styles is
visible:
