Layer fades

May 05, 2012

I have built a slide with two layers. When the user presses a button (Layer 1), a movie plays (Layer2).  When the movie finishes, the trigger is set to return to Layer 1.  Is there any way to make this transition a fade?

There is no built in way to fade a layer but you can kind of fake it by adding a partially transparent symbol or two just after the video finishes and adding a fade in and fade out animation to the symbol.

I have attached a very crude sample story file to show you how it can be done. In this example, I created two symbols - one that just covers the video followed by another that is the size of the slide layer.
