iPad like window animation in Swing - swing

Those floating, sliding and flying maze of pup ups and windows in iPad are very cool. I wonder if it's possible to achieve those effects with java swing applications. Any idea?

Sure it is possible. You have to use animation library such as Trident or TimingFramework.
I suggest to try Trident first simply because TimingFramework is stale for several years now.

Is it possible to speedup animations on Chrome?

I'm playing a web game on Chrome, and this game has some pretty slow menu animations.
As far as I know this game is made in html5.
I would like to know if somehow there is a way to increase the framerate on Chrome so the animations on the game would go faster.
Thanks.
Disabling hardware acceleration on Chrome setting could somehow help.

Sencha Touch Scrolling Sluggish on IE10/WP8

So I've just gotten my app to work on IE10/WP8 (demo here), and one thing I've noticed is that both scrolling and transitioning between carousel cards are reasonably sluggish on Windows Phone. Specifically, it takes like half a second for the screen to catch up to my finger. I'd say it's at about 80% of the responsiveness than I get from Android and iPhone, which both have pretty much perfect responsiveness. For reference, here are the devices I'm testing with:
iPhone 4
Android Kyocera Rise
WP8 Nokia Lumia 920
Desktop PC (Windows 8)
So among the phones, my Windows Phone is easily the most powerful, so it likely isn't just a hardware consideration. I've found this sluggishness in fastbook (http://fb.html5isready.com) as well. However, the sluggishness on either app does not exist on my Windows 8 PC.
Is there a particular consideration that needs to be taken with this part of performance in WP8? I've done quite a lot of work optimizing overall performance on the app (destroying/recycling all unused DOM elements, event delegation, etc) and the rest of the app runs quite well. So I'm not sure where I should go from here.
Thanks in advance!
How are you serving those large images? Have you tried using sencha.io to serve them? You can also use the yahoo tool smush.it to crush images further without loss of quality.
Another question: are you using CSS shadows and effects? These can have a noticeable performance hit sometimes...
Also the custom font, how are you implementing that? Google fonts work well, or are you implementing it another way?

HTML5 Animation using CreateJS doesn't work with iPad

I'm working on an animation using CreateJS and spritesheet, but I don't understand why that don't work with iPad.
That works fine with Chrome browser.
The CreateJS framework should work with iOS.
You can find my code here:
Link no more available
Do you have any idea?
Otherwise, do you have any other solution to create HTML5 animation for iPad from the web?
In addition, I need to add sound to this animation with synchronization with the animation, so the animation must not lag, I need perfect performances.
Thanks.
Sorry, my first answer was not helpful. I took a deeper look here, and the issue is probably because of the size of the PNG. Your PNG is currently 4096x2048, which is double the acceptable size for iOS.
Ensure your images are less than 2048x2048 - you can use Zoë to export them from Flash, which will give you multiple images.

webApp on ipad safari close suddenly

Im developing a html5 webApp for iPad and when I open it with Safari, this quit suddenly.
I'm using RoyalSlider plugin and I think the problem may be there since I'm using multiple instances but I don't know which is the specific problem and can´t solve it!
When I just use one instance there is no problem but I really need to use multiple instances of the slider.
Has anyone had similar problem?
When a browser crashes due to rendering content of a web page it is a browser bug. Even if the content is invalid the browser must handle that.
I have no idea about iPod and iPad and iGod stuff, but maybe also on those systems there is the possibility to launch the browser from the command line instead of clicking a button? This is usually the first step to take when trying to find out why some application crashes.
I have experienced crashing issues with iPad Safari and lots of large, hardware accelerated images, particularly on the first generation iPad. From a quick look at the Royal Slider homepage, it looks like they use hardware acceleration on iOS, though I don't know how they have it implemented.
When I encountered this problem it was because I was using a -webkit-transform: translate3d(0,0,0) effect to trick the iPad into hardware accelerating a div full of large images. The page would crash on load, but I was able to make it work by being more selective about which images I was trying to get the iPad to hardware accelerate at any given time. You might start by looking through the Royal Slider CSS to see how it's manipulating the images. Hope this helps!

Mouse Wheel Problem on Mac when opening my Website

I built a website, and the designer who drew the design of the page has Mac computer. He says that Mouse wheel scrolling doesn't work, only the browsers left "slider" works. I mean when you are with your mouse in center of the screen and you do the mouse wheel scroll, the page doesn't move, and if you drag Browsers scroll - it moves.
The thing is that I've been only using PC so I've got no idea - why that can happen with a website on Mac. It works fine in 5 browsers (IE, Opera, FF, Chrome and Safari on PC), and mouse scroll has problem in any browser on Mac.
Can anyone share with your ideas why could that happen and maybe how to fix it. I have 0% experience with Mac, I don't even know what to do after turn on/off button :)
P.S. i tagged PHP, CSS and HTML because the website is developed using those languages and Flash player & slider.

Before you go ahead and deem it a code problem, I'd have your mac user clean his scroll wheel out with either a.) an alcohol wipe or b.) a piece of paper. Rub the mouse ball with the wipe, or apply pressure to it with the paper and roll it back and forth to git any dirt out. I'm willing to bet it is a hardware issue rather than code.
If it is a newer mouse without the scroll ball, then... well, I lost the bet.
only the browsers left "slider" works
If it's on the left, it ain't the browser's standard scroll bar.
mouse scroll has problem in any browser on Mac.
Because all those browsers are using the same Flash player plugin.
the website is developed using those languages and Flash player & slider.
Yep. There you go - the Flash "slider" obviously wasn't tested on a Mac. Now you know why designers with a clue rely on standard-based approaches instead of Flash.
(Edit) Yep - just used the address in your comment above to look at your site. There's a "macmousewheelflash.js" being loaded, which apparently has something to do with adding mouse wheel support to the Flash movie at the top. Looks like that's interfering with proper wheel support for the rest of the page. You could probably just remove that - I don't see where the Flash movie needs to scroll anyway. Or, for that matter, why you need Flash for a simple cross-fade slide show...
