Transition effects between the states..?

Hi, There.
   How I can set the "Transition effects" between the states please?. When I add the different photos to the several states, I want to set the transition effects like "Fade". Help me anyone please.
Thanks

Try to make a few more transitional states in between with varying levels of opacity for each picture (and play with the State Delay time). Other than that, i don't think Fireworks has transitional effects for slideshows (i may be wrong).

  • How to have smooth fade effect between the two images via XML

    I have a center of energy program similar to the one used by IMAQ. I have attached an example using your data. I first found the center of the entire image. Then I split the array in two and found the centers of each half. That gives you the position of the two spots. This program won't work if the spots are too close to each other or are separeted in the other axis.

  • Please Help.Transition effects between scenes.

    Hello,
    I am simulating an Ipad device in flash CS6, with AS3, and I have made one scene for the desktop (with all the app icons) and another scene for each app.
    I'm using buttons to navigate between apps (each app icon is a button), and made another button for the Ipad home button to go back to desktop.
    By the way , I'm using this code for the buttons;
              btn_music.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, abrerep);
              function abrerep (event:MouseEvent):void {
              gotoAndStop("1","Reproductor");
    It works fine , but I would like to add a transition effect (like a fade out, or something similar to what ipad actually do)  when you open an app or go back to desktop (change scene).
    Any advice on how to do this?!!
    I apreciate your help, thanks in advance.
    PD: Also I would like to simulate a web browser app (like safari), that when you open it, it goes to a web site, for example www.apple.com
    Any Ideas to this??

    Doing trransitions along a timeline using scenes is not very designer-friendly.  You are better off avoiding the using of frames and even the timeline.  Just have each section as a movieclip in one frame and control the visibility of each.  Then you can use Actionscript to fade things in and/or out as needed, while having the benefit of easily retaining the states of sections already visited.  You should be able to convert each scene into a movieclip by copying the timeline into a movieclip.

  • Enabling transition effects window pane

    Hello
    I'm playing around with CS5.5 and currently reached tutorial 6: Applying transitions in Adobe Premiere Pro, on the CS5.5 tutorial list.
    My problem involves showing the transition pane in the CTI. The disolve transition effect works in video when I click and drag the effect between two video panes but it's not producing one for its self. Because of this I can't expand the time of the transition.
    Perhaps someone could offer a solution so the Cross Disolve pane appears, or a work around that allows me to adjust the interval length.
    I'm sure the answer is quite simple but I'm pretty new to this so thanks for your patience.

    Thanks,
    I read that over but my transition effects between clips are still not manageable. The clips don't show up in the effects panel nor can I click on the transition effect in the effects panel.

  • Page transitions effects

    I've looked around a lot, but I have not been able to find
    any tutorial explicitly going over just how to design transition
    effects between pages (i.e., the effect through which the Home page
    loads, and how to smoothly dissapear its content when the viewer
    clicks to go to a different page, and the same thing for all pages
    basically).
    I've learned the basics of motion and shape tweening, as well
    as masking (using tweens), and some basic actionscript, however,
    with various content on my pages it does not allow me to do a
    mask/tween nor is it at all a practical solution for my specific
    problem: again, I want the pages to load up and dissapear smoothly
    with some sort of effect. I have set the pages up using labels.
    Any input, or link to a descent tutorial on the subject would
    be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the posting.
    While they're pretty terse, the InDesign Help files are pretty clear about whether things can be exported or not.
    For example:
    "Movies and sound clips you add to a document can be played when the document is exported to Adobe PDF or SWF, or when you export the document to XML and repurpose the tags." (Doesn't mention FLA files.)
    or
    "Page transitions display a decorative effect such as a dissolve or wipe when you’re turning pages in a document that is exported to SWF or PDF format. You can apply different transitions to different pages, or you can apply a single transition to all the pages. Page transitions are especially useful when you create a slideshow in PDF or SWF format." (Doesn't mention FLA files.)
    or
    "Animation effects let you make objects move in your exported SWF files. For example, you can apply a motion preset to an image that makes it appear to fly in from the left side of the screen while shrinking and spinning. Use the following tools and panels to animate documents." (Doesn't mention FLA files.)
    But:
    "When you export your InDesign document to FLA file format, you can open the file in Adobe Flash® CS5 Professional to edit the contents. Exporting to FLA in InDesign CS5 format replaces XFL export in InDesign CS4. Use the Flash authoring environment to edit or add video, audio, animation, and complex interactivity." (The last sentence says you should do those things in Flash Professional.)

  • Premiere Pro CS4 Loose transition effect after exporting.

    Hey everyone.  Still a little new to Pro, but have searched for an answer to this question with no luck.  I have about a 4 minute project which consists of titles, still images and video and audio.  I have 5 opening titles, each 3 seconds long.  I have set the 'dip to black' transition effect between each of them.  After exporting to media - Windows AVI, the effect is gone on just these clips.  All other transitions work great.  I am doing this on my Vista Ultimate Dual Core 1.8 GHz 32-bit PC with 3GB of RAM.  I am exporing to NTSC DV.
    I did try exporting the exact same project on my work laptop.  Windows XP, 1.7GHz with 1GB of RAM and it worked just fine. 
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you in advance.

    The glow is best done with a plugin from trapcode called Shine.  They also have an effect called sparkle which should accomplish the effect in your video example.
    Shine is preetty much a standard plugin for AE or Pr.  Its a bit overused though.
    http://www.trapcode.com/products_shine.html
    In fact I did a tutorial for Shine a while back.  Maybe it will help.  Though it was done on Pr ver 1; but the plugin works the same.

  • DVD Menu Transition Effects

    I have successfully created a motion graphic DVD menu in AE, which I have rendered to be authored in Encore. The theme is horror/thriller with thriller theme for the BG music. There are two(2) selecitons on the main menu:
    Play Movie         Bonus Features
    When the user chooses Play Movie, I would like a transition effect leading to the main video to be played. And maybe a different transition effect when the user selects Bonus Features before getting into the submenu of bonus features.
    Can anyone sugguest any resources (e.g., books, manuals, blogs, video resources, courses, etc.) that can provide a tutorial on how to perform the procedure(s) in AE and EN?
    Your assistance would be highly appreciated.

  • Transition Effects on 5610 XpressMusic

    I saw that Nokia 7210 Supernova and 6600 fold have the menu transition effects, and they're 40 series phones like my phone (5610), so is there any update for Nokia 5610 that includes the transition effects?

    I liked that new transition effects on the much newer Series 40 6th Edition however, since it's a much newer release unlikely we will never see that added on the N5610 firmware.

  • 1Frame Transitions in between Clips.

    Concerning smoothcam, I'm following the instructions on applying smoothcam filters to clips.
    I'd first export the portion of the clip that is being used, then reimporting it and placing in the timeline where it belongs.
    When I place the new clip on the track, flushed up to another clip on either side, I can't seem to get a cross dissolve transition that spans the intersection of the 2 clips. FCP wil place a 1frame transition in between the clips but not on and connecting the clips.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks for any and all help
    Aloha

    You don't have enough handles.
    http://www.fcpbook.com/Effects1.html
    You needed to export with pad on either side so when you brought it back you had room for the transition overlap.

  • "Fall" or "Caída" transition effect

    Hi,
    First of all, I have the Spanish version of iWork 08. Before that, I had iWork 06, also in Spanish. In that version, there was a 3D effect called "Caída" (or "Fall" in English, i supose). On the 08 version of Keynote, that effect dissapeared, but there is a 2D effect called also "Caída". I have checked in the preferences the option for showing obsolete animations and, apparently, this problem is only on the Spanish translation.
    My theory is this: In English, there are two differents effects that in the Spanish translation, they are both called "Caída". Since they have the same name, the transition selector shows only one of them (the 2D version in this case).
    I think this because I have a presentation made with iWork 06 that uses the 3D version of "Caída" and when I open it with iWork 08 and play it, the transitino is shown perfectly... but if i change it to another, i can't select it again....
    Is it possible that my problem is because this issue with translations conflicts?
    Regards.

    I forgot to mention that I found this similar thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6667490
    Anyway, I did some tests and I found the following: If I examine the contents of the Keynote.app package, there is file, Contents/Resources/Animations/Bolt.sfxplugin/Contents/Resources/Spanish.lproj/L ocalizable.strings. If I change the line
    "Fall FallBuild" = "Caída";
    for
    "Fall FallBuild" = "Caída3D";
    The "Caída" 3D transition effect appears again in the inspector . The only bad thing is that the 2D "Caída" effect dissapears... the 2D "Caída" transition effect is the same effect that can be applied to objects and is called, again, "Caída". That effect is apparently translated in this file:
    Contents/Frameworks/SFAnimation.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Spanish.lproj/Loc alizable.strings
    in the line
    "Drop Bounce" = "Caída";
    So, I don't know exactly what, but apparently there is an issue with this...
    Regards.

    I have cross dissolve transitions set between images and videos, and I have the pan/zoom hold setting at "0." Despite the "0" setting, my images are static until the cross dissolve is complete. I want the pan/zoom feature to start the moment the subsequent image becomes visible. Is there a solution?

    tonyproam
    I am not sure if I am zeroing in on what you seek so please clarify...on
    I want the pan/zoom feature to start the moment the subsequent image becomes visible.
    Do you mean fading in visible versus or completely visible at the end of the transition? Whatever the case, I have not
    found a scenario to fit what you are describing.
    However, here are my suggestions for you to consider...
    1. What is the alignment of the Cross Dissolve transition - Left Clip, Between Clips, or Right Clip. If Between Clips, please try Left Clip alignment.
    2. What is the duration of the Cross Dissolve transition - you could try varying the transition duration. If less than 1 second, then please read the
    details for minimum transition duration in the following
    http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/03/pe-minimum-duration-for-transition.html
    Please let me know if any of the above worked for you in what you were seeking regarding pan and zoom effect and video transitions.
    Thank you.

  • Having transition sequences persist between mutiple states

    Hi Guys,
    ive just been animating some crazy transitions between states,
    however i've come to realise that i need to do them same transition sequences in all the other states.
    for instance, in my Art to Photo states i have the hectic transitions occuring, (selecting the art button, objects rotate and things fly into screen and fade in and out)
                      but then,
                        i need to do the same hectic transition fom Photo to Art, (only the transition will be in reverse)
    any ideas how this can be done, as a batch maybe, without having to go into each state and create the transitions manually from scratch?
    i know that we can have objects persist over multiple states, but transitions in the timeline would be great to persist over multiple states too.
    cheers
    Mudd

    Hi adam,
    basically i would like a transition that occures in one of the states (i.e: fading the previous state out and fading in the selected state whilst the new states sub category buttons fly onto the screen, etc) to presist over other states that have buttons with sub category buttons.
    i was hoping for a simple select all transitions in the one states timeline and copy that same arrangement of transitions into another states timeline; so to act as a time saving devise, instead of manually doing all those transitions again.
    does this make sense? it sounds fine to me. hope you get the picture.
    cheers

  • Aperture does not show all the transition effects in slideshow

    Hello,
    I am making my first slideshow in Aperture since I thought it would be better than iphoto.
    Finding it not as intuitive as I expected, have to say.
    I want to control how each transition between the slides works, but when I get the inspector ( and even that wouldn't appear - I had to troubleshoot it, reboot and change the displays then set up a dummy slideshow to even get that to appear ) - there is only two options on each slide - default and selected slide, and even then I can only change the background colour and the "photo effect" to black and white - the options that show on the manual are not there.
    I thought it might be because I was still using the Trial Version of Aperture, so I changed libraries and import the slideshow - only 1 photo appeared and still no options to change anything. Try again ... ok, now the photos are there but I have the same options as before - i.e. none. I tried to change the theme to Ken Burns and NOW the options appear, but does that mean you can only change the slideshow options in this theme and none of the others?
    And I also can't figure out how to import a video onto the end of the photo slideshow ... When I have the slideshow screen up, there is no other option availabale ( that I can see ) to impot a video .. I'm starting to think imovie is the only way to do this?
    Can anyone suggest anything ??
    Thanks,
    M

    You'll want to check the status of the delivery - if it's waiting interfaces, you could have an inventory interface issue or possibly interface trip stop hasn't run.  You can also check the workflow of the particular line to see what step is is stuck at.

    If you look at the table which is output of the given query , there is column called "STATE_ID" It shows the current state ie open or closed or all report.
    The column 'PREVIOUS_STATE' shows the state before the current state. .In the table in 2nd row in previous_state column there is state_id = 1 (open)which is the state before 'all report state'

  • Is there a way of transitioning to a random state on the click of a button?*

    Hello I'm in need of some help here with coding a button to play a transition to a random state... is this possible? I read up on a math action script that looked like it might work but I'm basically uneducated in coding. The idea is to play a random swf video I designed in aftereffects. Any help would be much appreciated. Small reward if someone can help me make it fully work!

    How are the videos laid out in your Catalyst project? Is each one in a different state? Or do you have single state that you use as your video player state?
