…

Some buttons on this site http://www.fontsforflash.com/ , when

mouse is on play a M C that performs a very interesting effect

  • much different from the old and boredom tweenings with

alpha ;

I´ve been looking at it many times , it seems it was used a mask

over the text ; Anyone can gimme a hint on how to duplicate

or do something alike ???

No no no my friend I don´t mean that orange too basic thing ;

the effect I am interested in duplicating is that one as you enter the page ; pay attention to the text field “HEllo FFF Folks here we are with another update for you…” ; the way it comes up , the text ;

the same for the buttons :

Partners , Webdesign and Advertisement ,

roll your mouse over those buttons and you will see a mc to play and the text appears with such effect ; It is evident that is a masking effect , and perhaps the mask is animated by means some action scripting -
I´ve seen something similar being done by an applet.

that is a cool effect, and one I’ve been attempting to duplicate as well. (though I didn’t know I was duplicating someone elses work. :frowning: )

I’m going to have to look at theirs for a while. It does have an interesting look to it.

I knew it was something else…

And no idea at all concerning that thing. Very nice effect. Did you try flashkit? They should have something like that in their DB.

pom :slight_smile:

My guess would be swift v.3

It’s advertised on their main page and very possibly one of the effects tweaked very nicley

Thank you both for the hints ;

I keep picking my neurons on it .
Flash has a deficiency at dealing with masks what
makes it difficult to create effects like that.
Movie clips can´t be used as mask area , otherwise I would
have duplicated the effect.

well, you can artificialy create a non-mask mask by covering a lower layer with objects on a higher layer. It’s not a mask, but it can have a similar effect if done correctly.

useful screen capture (if this is the effect you meant)
