Animation Plugin

This example shows how you can use Widget's plugin infrastructure to customize the existing behavior of a widget.

We create an Animation plugin class for Overlay called AnimPlugin which changes the way Overlay instances are shown/hidden, by fading them in and out. The Overlay is initially constructed with the AnimPlugin plugged in (with the duration set to 2 seconds). Clicking the "Unplug AnimPlugin" button, will restore the original non-Animated Overlay show/hide behavior. Clicking on the "Plug AnimPlugin" button will plug in the AnimPlugin again, but with a shorter duration.
