how to fade in?

[1300713G3R]

I'm trying to make a really simple fade in, what is the command for it?
thnx in advance

i dont think there is a command for it in turing, well in my old 4.0.3 you might want to try you F10 and type in Pic and check? But i do doubt, it highly.

i agree to don't think there is one but fading in is probaly the only movie effect types u can't do but try something else like a black screen then a white circle comes out from the middle of the screen or black to white from left to right!! ( that rhymed )

Shameless plug.

The latest version is grouped with a basic alpha class. Just draw a black rectangle over everything else and slowly decrease the opacity, until 0. It will be an almost perfect fade.

The only problem is, it's pretty slow (no possible way to speed up in Turing) and it also restricts colors to the basic 0-255 because of the use of whatdotcolor. So it can look a tad odd in some cases.

If you have Turing 4.1.1 alpha (which is free), it has special effects and new transitions to other images. The command is "Pic.DrawSpecial". The whole syntax would be:

Turing:

Pic.DrawSpecial (picID, x, y, picCopy, picFadeIn, duration)
