fade jpg ??

[weaver]

Ok I did see the other post about fade in jpg, didnt help to much.

I am very new to scripting and Action script, is there a way for me to just do the alpha fade thing with out making a function and all that other stuff?? Or A way where I can just delay the JPG load for 1-2 seconds ???

I want have a simple fade in when external jpg loaded into blank MovieClip. No fade out or anything like that because to see the next picture , user has to hit a button I made that goes back to frame 1 which is where the user started from( frame 1 has the buttons that user clicks to get menu to (tween)expand wider so that external jpg is displayed).

Ok not sure I grasped everything you said but I hope this helps

Make the jpg an instance in other words convert it to a symbol

insert - convert symbol then make it a graphic you can then change its alpha settings in properties

In main timeline create say 10 frames with a keyframe at the end and make alpha on first keyframe 100% on the next keyframe choose a level lower than thst then create a motion tween

eh voila!!!

Hope that helps

or, if u don't want to import it and convert it (i.e. load it from external)
make the holder MC's alpha = 0 and then load your jpg into it, then make a loop to check if it fully loaded, its alpha increases 'till it reaches 100

What are you trying to do exactly? Are you wanting a sort of gallery where 1 picture fades in and then fades out, as another fades in etc?

You'll have to explain in more simple terms wot you are trying to do unless you have some sort of example to show me :)
