22 Material design: [Surface reaction](https://www.google.com/design/spec/animation/responsive-interaction.html#responsive-interaction-surface-reaction)
23
24 `paper-ripple` provides a visual effect that other paper elements can
25 use to simulate a rippling effect emanating from the point of contact. The
26 effect can be visualized as a concentric circle with motion.
27
28 Example:
29
30 ```html
31 <div style="position:relative">
32 <paper-ripple></paper-ripple>
33 </div>
34 ```
35
36 Note, it's important that the parent container of the ripple be relative position, otherwise
37 the ripple will emanate outside of the desired container.
38
39 `paper-ripple` listens to "mousedown" and "mouseup" events so it would display ripple
40 effect when touches on it. You can also defeat the default behavior and
41 manually route the down and up actions to the ripple element. Note that it is
42 important if you call `downAction()` you will have to make sure to call
43 `upAction()` so that `paper-ripple` would end the animation loop.
44
45 Example:
46
47 ```html
48 <paper-ripple id="ripple" style="pointer-events: none;"></paper-ripple>
49 ...
50 downAction: function(e) {
51 this.$.ripple.downAction({detail: {x: e.x, y: e.y}});
52 },
53 upAction: function(e) {
54 this.$.ripple.upAction();
55 }
56 ```
57
58 Styling ripple effect:
59
60 Use CSS color property to style the ripple:
61
62 ```css
63 paper-ripple {
64 color: #4285f4;
65 }
66 ```
67
68 Note that CSS color property is inherited so it is not required to set it on
69 the `paper-ripple` element directly.
70
71 By default, the ripple is centered on the point of contact. Apply the `recenters`
72 attribute to have the ripple grow toward the center of its container.
73
74 ```html
75 <paper-ripple recenters></paper-ripple>
76 ```
77
78 You can also center the ripple inside its container from the start.
79
80 ```html
81 <paper-ripple center></paper-ripple>
82 ```
83
84 Apply `circle` class to make the rippling effect within a circle.
85
86 ```html
87 <paper-ripple class="circle"></paper-ripple>
88 ```
