Fading effect

I’m try to use the fading effect

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/fadingtext.htm

Mine jumps from invisible state to visible. But kirupa’s looks very smooth. How do i get that effect

if you are using dynamic text make sure that the font has been embeded. in the properties window click the character button and select “embed all” or something to that effect.

no, I’m using the static text. But still it does

did you insert a tween?

yes, motion tween

send me the file at jedick1@binghamton.edu

and while you’re at it send me the scroller file as well.

I’ll see if I can help you out.

Its actually 18 MB file how do i send it , please let me know.

take everything out of it except for the part that contains the scroller or the text that is fading and then e-mail it to me.

I did brought it down to 464KB, but when i attach the file in the email it saus error on page !!!
Any other way to send it to you !!!

e-mail is pretty much the only way.

did u get my file

it works when i slide in the time line
but when i test the movie it doesn’t work

here is the file

Is this the kind of thing you’re looking for man?

Just reset the tween and the start/finish points + changed the alpha on the first frame of the tween to 0, and last frame to 100 :slight_smile:
