                                                          int totalTime){
        super(provider);
        this.animDir = animDir; // This can be LEFT or RIGHT, any other will
                                // be BOTTOM
        this.totalTime = totalTime; // Time, in milliseconds for the animation
    }

Methods

Type	Name	Description
Constructor	SlidingWindow(Presenter<Container> provider)	Creates a SlidingWindow with the specified provider. Use the provider class to implement your view code.
Constructor	SlidingWindow(Presenter<Container> provider, boolean delayInitUI)	Creates a SlidingWindow with the specified provider and if it should delay the InitUI execution. Use the delayed InitUI if your screen takes a significant amount of time to load (e.g., it fetches data from a server) and the non-delayed InitUI if it is fast enough to be loaded prior to the animation. If the delayed option is used, the screen will popup with a spinner.
void	unpop( )	Unpops the SlidingWindow, hiding it.
void	popup( )	Popups the SlidingWindow, showing it.
