Effects Components

[SoccerCheese]

Are there any components out there, or could any be made that allow timed visual effects to an object?

For instance, when you click a button or press a key, the graphic will fade, wipe in, etc. I guess like transitions in Director, so you can create presentations...

The reason I'm asking is that I'm in the process of converting a Powerpoint presentation and recreating all this stuff is taking a while. Components like that would really help, I think.

Agreed. I think there's a big market for such things. The closest ones I know of are at http://methinks.com/

I hope you're right. I've been developing a massive suite of presentation components since MX came out. The suite is contained in a template that allows for the creation of dynamic and interactive screen presentations, not just wipes and fades. This includes navigation, animation, charting and map components. I'll hopefully be putting up demos at my site within the next month (sorry that doesn't help you now!).
