Animation Class
Animations allow constant changes to numeric
values/properties of an object.
Animations can be
seen as functions defining the progress of the change on the
value.
It is an abstract class that must not be instantiated directly.

Properties
Events
onFinish
The trigger will fire when the Animation finishes.
The trigger is null by default, and will thus result in no action executed when the trigger fires. A developer can add custom functionality by assigning a custom function to onFinish.
onStart
The trigger will fire right before the Animation starts.
The trigger is null by default, and will thus result in no action executed when the trigger fires. A developer can add custom functionality by assigning a custom function to onStart.
