NativePageSwitcher


Purpose

This API consists of the NativePageSwitcher object that enables native transitions between pages of hybrid applications.

When you click a link to initiate navigation within a page, the screen does an animated transition between an existing and a new screen. In single-page web applications, where no navigation is performed, transitions need to be triggered manually, by means of the startSwitching and continueSwitching methods.

You can access the object by using the launchbox.NativePageSwitcher reference.

Module

This object belongs to the Hybrid product module.
