Performs a morph effect on the tiles in your selector. Use the parameters to tweak the effect. Note that the brightness of the morph is determined by the brightness of the tile, rather than the brightness of the colours in the palette. To change the brightness, use the SetState endpoint.

Path Params

selector

string

required

The selector to limit which devices will run the effect.

Body Params

period

double

Defaults to 5

This controls how quickly the morph runs. It is measured in seconds. A lower number means the animation is faster

duration

float

Defaults to null

How long the animation lasts for in seconds. Not specifying a duration makes the animation never stop. Specifying 0 makes the animation stop. Note that there is a known bug where the tile remains in the animation once it has completed if duration is nonzero.

palette

array of strings

Defaults to 7 colours across the spectrum

You can control the colors in the animation by specifying a list of color specifiers. For example ["red", "hue:100 saturation:1"]. See https://api.developer.lifx.com/docs/colors

palette

power_on

boolean

Defaults to true

Switch any selected device that is off to on before performing the effect.

fast

boolean

Defaults to false

Execute the query fast, without initial state checks and wait for no results.
