Text transitions?

-----------------------------------

a quick question: can one do transitions/special effects with Draw.Text commands? and what about normal screens in a turing program, meaning, without having to insert a picture in??

is it feasable?  :?: 

thnx....

Not really; if you want fancy text animations, you need to do it in "graphics" mode - console modes (text, screen) don't support anything other than character graphics for the most part. To do this in "graphics" mode, you're probably best to just draw the font in a series of colours that fade appropriately (you may have to edit the colour palette yourself).

Here is an old thread with a whole bunch of text effects.

I was thinking of taking most of them and making a module
