Flash

Qualified name: manim.animation.indication.Flash

class Flash(mobject=None, *args, use_override=True, **kwargs)

Bases: AnimationGroup

Send out lines in all directions.

Parameters:

• point (Point3DLike | Mobject) – The center of the flash lines. If it is a Mobject its center will be used.

• line_length (float) – The length of the flash lines.

• num_lines (int) – The number of flash lines.

• flash_radius (float) – The distance from point at which the flash lines start.

• line_stroke_width (int) – The stroke width of the flash lines.

• color (ParsableManimColor) – The color of the flash lines.

• time_width (float) – The time width used for the flash lines. See ShowPassingFlash for more details.

• run_time (float) – The duration of the animation.

• kwargs (Any) – Additional arguments to be passed to the Succession constructor

Examples

Example: UsingFlash

from manim import *

        self.add(Tex("Flash the dot below:"), dot)
        self.play(Flash(dot))
        self.wait()

class UsingFlash(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        dot = Dot(color=PURE_YELLOW).shift(DOWN)
        self.add(Tex("Flash the dot below:"), dot)
