How to FadeOut with DisplayBrushFX()?

[Bugala]

I am using

Code: Select all

DisplayBrushFX(1, 0, 0, {type=#FADE, speed=10})

to Fade In a picture, but how do I achieve the opposite, as in I want to Fade Out the same picture?

AFAIK has not, so its a wishlist item
a similar effect is blend, if you stop in the middle of design like this

(here i count it takes 512 frames to draw)

Code: Select all

obj = DisplayBrushFX(1, 0, 0, {type=#BLEND, speed=1,parameter=#WHITE,Async=True})
Repeat
	VWait 
	done = AsyncDrawFrame(obj)
	inc = inc+1
Until inc=256
FinishAsyncDraw(obj)

Okay, thanks from the info. Figured I use #CROSSFADE then with a black screen to achieve the same:

Code: Select all

DisplayBrushFX(1, 0, 0, {type=#FADE, Speed=10} )
CreateBrush(2, 1920, 1080, #BLACK)
DisplayBrushFX(2, 0, 0, {type=#CROSSFADE, speed=10} )

This results in first Bursh 1 fading in, and then seemingly fading out, since it crossfades to black screen, which in practice is the same as fade out to black.

Actually, it is possible but only with layers. In that case using RemoveLayerFX(), HideLayerFX() or UndoFX() should fade out the brush. Without layers this is impossible to do because the call to DisplayBrushFX() erases the old background so there is no idea for Hollywood to magically restore it. This is only possible with layers.

Ah, thanks. Going to use that instead of Crossfade to make it cleaner.
