Interface IModalRefreshSource

Namespace

ItTiger.TigerCli.Tui.Abstractions

Assembly

ItTiger.TigerCli.dll

Implemented by a dialog that has time-driven content (periodic overlays). The semi-interactive modal loop calls AdvanceAnimations(DateTime) once per iteration on its own render thread and re-renders only when it returns true. The shell owns the loop and timing; the dialog owns which tickers exist and whether any of them changed.

public interface IModalRefreshSource

Methods

AdvanceAnimations(DateTime)

Advances every active periodic overlay to nowUtc and returns true when at least one changed its visible output, so the modal loop should re-render. Returns false when there is nothing animated or nothing changed, so an idle dialog never re-renders merely because time passed.

bool AdvanceAnimations(DateTime nowUtc)

Parameters

nowUtc DateTime

Returns

bool
