My goal is to create a small example library for each AnimationType.

First gathering (subject of change)

    --define frame
    
    local f = CreateFrame("Frame")
    ...

    local ag = f:CreateAnimationGroup()    

    local a1 = ag:CreateAnimation("Translation")
    a1:SetOffset(x, y)    
    a1:SetDuration(3)
    a1:SetSmoothing("OUT")

    local a2 = ag:CreateAnimation("Scale")
    a2:SetScale(x, y)
    a2:SetDuration(3)
    a2:SetSmoothing("OUT")

    local a3 = ag:CreateAnimation("Rotation")
    a3:SetDegrees(180)
    a3:SetDuration(3)
    a3:SetSmoothing("OUT")
    
    local a4 = ag:CreateAnimation("Alpha")
    a4:SetChange(-0.5)
    a4:SetDuration(3)
    a4:SetSmoothing("OUT")

    ag:Play()
