Show/hide shimmer effect

[subzero911]

Expected behaviour - when enabled: false, hide shimmer effect but show children
Current behaviour - stops the animation.
Because of it I have to create 2 trees - a shimmer tree with fake widgets and a tree with actual widgets

Please consider using enabled to show/hide shimmering, and period: 0 is for stopping the animation

Or I'd suggest to deprecate parameter enabled as non-obvious, and introduce visible: true/false and animation: true/false instead.

@subzero911 I vote for that, really confusing and make you double the widgets.

any updates on this?

this feature would be too much.
stop animation doesn't make much sense.

I am agree with this point. Then let's return to the idea I suggested in a start post. Rename enabled to visible and make use it to show/hide shimmer effect and those people who wants to stop animation for some reason will use period: 0.
