Easing Definitions

Easing functions specify the speed at which an animation progresses at different points within the animation.There are two easings: linear, which progresses at a constant pace throughout the animation, and swing, which progresses slightly slower at the beginning and end of the animation than it does in the middle of the animation. Plus there are several additional easing functions, ranging from variations on the swing behavior to customized effects such as bouncing.

See below for a graph of all animations available.
