Hello, and if you haven’t noticed, I’m a newbie.

I’m wondering how I could make fading text. What I’m trying to accomplish is to have 10 blank frames in the beginning, and after that, some text SLOWLY fades in. I have no clue how to do that, and I have been trying for hours.

Now, instead of struggling, I came to ask here. So the question is:

How do you fade in text?
