Widget Fade Out Effect

How do you avoid widgets inserted in Captivate 4 from fading out on the last slide of a project?
I have inserted a widget on my first slide and was selected to be displayed until the end of the project, take note, Transition Effect was set to none, but my widget would disappear upon reaching the very end of the project, where in Project End was set to Stop.
Any help and suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks and best regards,
-Miguel

Hi again,
Having used the AS2-type of this widget a lot in CP4-projects, I just tried your workflow with the AS3 widget. You are right, even when the transition is set to No, the fading remains. But the workaround that Isometric Bacon suggested worked fine: choose a Fade in + fade out, set both timings to 0sec and eventually reset to No Transition. Fading disappears in that case. Is there a particular reason why you do not want this? Once you set it up for one button, you can copy that button as many times as you want.
I have been looking swiftly at the FLA-file, but am still a newbie in ActionScript and am rather busy at the moment; couldn't find anything in the script about fading, or how the settings of Cp are taken over. But as I tell you, I'm really starting with AS...
BTW: my name is Lieve

How can I make a fade out effect at the end of the song in garageband for iPad?

GB for iPad doesn't have volume automation, you'd need to import the project into GB on a Mac to create the fade with a volume curve.
as an alt, finish your song and export the audio file, then import the audio file in an audio editor and create a volume fade with that:

How to make a combined zoom and fade in/fade out effect in Premiere Pro CS4

Hi everyone,
Like the title says, I would really love to have an effect I could just drag from the effects menu onto my footage (mostly text titles) so they could fade in for a second, zoom in slightly while they're on screen, and then fade out for the clip's last second.
That would make my workflow a LOT faster than fiddling with keyframes for the zoom and always grabbing the cross dissolve at the start and end of the text for a few projects I have. It doesn't sound like much, but when you have moving fading text a couple dozen times in each project and it takes the bulk of your time on the project, the repetition reminds me there has to be a better way.
That's what a computer is supposed to do, right, take care of simple repetitive tasks? So how can I get this set up as a reusable effect?
Thanks!

Dave,
I will +1 Pixelan's products. They are great, simple, and have about the best support that I know of. When you explore, say Pixelan's SpiceMaster, dig deeply. Things appear rather mundane, on the surface, but there is so very much power lurking, just below the surface. I could almost imagine a 1000 page manual to cover every possible aspect of that program... Every time that I use it, I learn something new, and wonderful.
Good luck,
Hunt

Fade out effect in applet

How would i go about making a fade out to white effect in an applet on like an image or something of the such?

This may work:
After you draw your image, fill a rectangle overtop of you image with the alpha component of the color increasing.
class SomeThread {
int alpha = 0;
public void run() {
     while (true) {
     if (alpha > 255) break;
     yourPanel.setAlpha(alpha);
     yourPanel.repaint();
     alpha = alpha + 5;
     try {
        Thead.sleep(200); // 255 / 5 = 51 * 200 ms is about 10 seconds
     } catch (InterruptedException ex) {}
class YourPanel extends JPanel {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
      super.paint(g);
      g.drawImage(...);
      g.setColor(new Color(255, 255, 255, alpha));
      g.fillRect(...);
}

Audio fade with fade in fade out effect

i want to make the audio fade along with the end of a clip when i use the fade in fade out transition i tried the audio cross fade but no luck could someone please help me out

Let me add to Tom and Al suggestion: if you want cross fade (not only fade in and out) your clips must have handles. In other words you should set up an Out point (in the left clip) and an In point (in the right clip): these must leave enough media in each clip to let cross fade to work; that's needed for either video or audio.

How to make the fade out effect.

Hi Everyone!
Can someone go through the steps for me in regards to making this effect below.
Where the stripes are faded out down the page.
Would indesign be the best place to make this in?

InDesign is good for doing that. I created three layers (no required, but helps to isolate the elements).
First, create a colored background.
Second, make a layer for the white bars. I duplicated one, then used Object > Transform Again > Transform Again to make the rest. Then I grouped them.
Apply the Effect called Gradient Feather to the group. Adjust the settings as shown.
Add a type layer.

Skinning of Tab & Fade out effect while switching to next tab

want to change the skin of tab, where i need the Graident mix to be used, is it possible ?
how to use Animations( Fading of Old Panel to New Panel) while switching to next tab. any help pls?

I found the same problem. My (Australian) keyboard has { and [ on the same key. The shortcut for "History, Back" is cmd+[ . This conflicts with the shortcut cmd+{ , and going back takes priority it seems.
What does work for me to shift between tabs (even though it doesn't show in the menu shortcuts) is:
cmd + shift + { (to move tab to the left)
cmd + shift + } (to move tab to the right)
See if that works for you. Regards JD

Brand new Nano: screen fade out?

Brand new Nano...the screen will fade to mostly white, however you can still faintly see the icons and it will operate but the whole screen is covered with the fade out effect that normally is confined to the right edge of artist/album/song names that are too long to fit on screen.
It seems to have happened mainly when it was plugged into the MBP USB slot to charge/sync.
Has anyone seen this? Is this a malfunction that warrants return? Is this normal?

yeah, definitely not normal. I find folks describing white screen with the logo and black screens but no one with this "faded" screen. I can faintly see the controls and they will move, but you can hardly use the thing.
it's going back to BestBuy before the return policy expires. This is the first Apple product I've purchased that has failed to live up to it's expected operation. In that it has failed miserably. So, it will be ditched.

Can you fade in and fade out the same layer in the same page state?

I am simulating a lot of touch interactions, and have a hand object that moves over the simllated screen. I want to add small "taps" under the hands to show touch; I can see how its easy to fade IN an object (say a small circle) that represents the touch; but how do I fade OUT that same object?
Any help appreciated!
Rob

Hey Rob,
I think you can achieve the effect you're looking for by using 'on click' interactions in conjunction with action sequences.
I just made a simple example, here are the steps:
1) Select the component you'd like to react on 'tap'
2) In the Interactions panel, click 'Add Interaction', and select 'play action sequence'
3) The timelines panel should now be given focus, and display the new 'on click' action sequence
4) Select the "circle" you'd like to make the fade in followed by fade out effect. If their opacity is set to 0 at this point, use the layers panel to select them.
5) With the circle selected, in the timelines panel click 'add action', located at the bottom.
6) Select 'fade' from the options available.
7) In the properties panel, define the fade properties (for fade in, obviously set 'from' to be 0, and 'to' to be 100)
8) Repeat steps 5 through 7, but choose from=100 and to=0
9) Arrange the fade in, and fade out events on the timeline to get the timing choreography right.
10) If you haven't done so already, set the opacity of your circles to be 0.
Does this work for you?
Is this what you were looking for?
Let me know if you need clarification on any of the steps.
Thanks for posting, great question!

I don't really know right off hand about flash catalyst I do know it was designed to make flash based animation out of your website templates designed in Photoshop or Illustrator and know it even has some support for fireworks. However I can tell you two different ways to do it step by step in Flash Professional CS 3, 4, or 5, MX and Studio 8.

Fade out for a while

I have Elements 12 and Windows 8.1 64.
I like to fade out the sound in the middle of a clip for just a short time. After that I will go back to the normal level. How can I do such things?

Koolmees37
I am going to detour in methodology to see if keyframing at the audio clip's rubberband will be easier. If not, we will go back to my first choice the Audio Mixer for the task.
In this demo, I have my audio on Audio Track 1 and selected/highlighted.
1. Place the Timeline Indicator at the spot on the Timeline about 20 seconds before where you want the Fade Out to start. Click on the diamond shape under Audio 1 (track name). That will place a white dot on the orange line that is running horizontally across the clip. That orange band is called rubberband. You have just placed a Volume keyframe. The Volume level at that spot will be 0 dB (normal Volume of the clip).
2. Move the Timeline Indicator 20 seconds later on the Timeline. Click on the diamond shape under Audio 1 (track name). That will place a white dot on the orange line (rubberband). With your mouse cursor, click and drag that second white dot down at that time spot to the bottom. You have just placed a Volume keyframe and set it a no sound (-infniity). The slope between the first and second keyframes placement will give you that Fade Out effect. You can fine tune the Fade Out by moving the white dots around with your mouse cursor.
3. Then move the Timeline Indicator to the right where you want the Volume to Fade In. Click on the diamond shape under Audio 1 (track name). This will place a white dot on the orange line (rubberband). Anothe Volume keyframe (that third white dote that you see in the screenshot). Since we are not moving this one up, the Volume there is -infinity (no sound). Now move the Timeline Indicator 20 seconds forward from that spot. Click on the diamond shape under Audio 1 (track name). This will place another white dot on the orange line (rubberband). For this white dot, with the mouse cursor click drag it upward at that time spot to the normal Volume level (try for 0 dB or very close to it).
At the end, the keyframed audio clip and its Volume keyframes (white dots) will look like this
Did that help and give good results or time to go back to the Audio Mixer whose description I gave in a prior post?
Looking forward to your results.
Thanks.

Audition CS5.5 fade out glitch

Hello, I am experiencing a very frustrating glitch with Audition's fade out effect. Occasionally when I apply a fade out to a clip it will have a sudden spike in volume at the very end of the fade out. This happens in the audio preview as well as the exported audio. This happens to about 1 in every 4 clips. I have tried changing settings in Audition, reinstalling my audio driver, and even reinstalling Audition, but nothing fixes the problem. I downloaded the trial of Audition CS6 and it does not have this glitch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"But don't worry, I have a fix for you. Upgrade to 6.0, because 6.0 doesn't do it!" was the only reason you gave for upgrading, hence my responce. Adobe does not allow individual upgrades if you own Creative Suite, or have academic pricing for Audition, so I can either upgrade my whole Creative Suite for $360 or purchase a standalone copy of Audition for $350.
"Am I eligible for upgrade pricing from a previous Creative Suite edition to a standalone CS component?
No. You cannot upgrade from a Creative Suite edition to an individual CS component. To confirm your options and learn about the requirements for upgrades, check the upgrade eligibility chart on the buying guide page of the product you wish to purchase. Among other requirements, you must be able to provide the serial number for the product you wish to upgrade during installation."

Batch "fade in/fade out"?

Hello,
I'm new-ish to FCE and I'm wondering if someone could help me with a question I have? I have a number of small movie files (about 50 clips, all short, about 2-3 minutes in length) and to each clip I want to add a "fade in" and "fade out" effect. Is it possible to do this via a batch on all the files at one?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

I disagree......
if the question is wanting to fade all 50 clips to and from black then the paste attributes would saves tons of time from doing each one by hand.
If they are wanting to cross dissolve between each of the 50 clips that's different but equally quick.
1) Set a default transition to dissolve.
2) Line all 50 clips up in the timeline, making sure each has the appropriate heads and tails to allow a dissolve
3) make an IN point between the first and second clip
4) then select all 49 clips minus the first one and drag them all to the overlay in the canvas and drop them on overwrite with transition
Walla.. it edits all the clip back into the timeline with a transition. Add the first one if it didn't add it and away you go. Much faster than adding 50 by hand.

How to fade out text on top of video footage?

Not quite sure how to sum up my question in Subject line, but here's what I'm trying to achieve: I've placed a text (Lower 3rd) on the V1 track, and a video clip on the V2 track. The Composite of the text is 'Normal', the video clip is 'Travel Matt - Alpha'. So the video appears inside the font, which is what I wanted.
But now I'd like to fade out the font, while just leaving the video play. When I add a Fade In Fade Out effect to the text, though, the video fades out as well, until the effect is over. Do I make sense?
Is there a way to just fade out the font (or Dissolve or Slide) without touching the video?
Thanks!

The video should be on V1 and the text on V2.
Click the zig zag button at the bottom left of the timeline and you will see an opacity line going across your clips just below the top of them.
Put a keyframe on the opacity line of the text clip around a couple of seconds before the end.
Put another keyframe at the end of the text's opacity line and drag it to the bottom of the clip.
This will cause just the text to fade out.
You can do the reverse at the beginning to make it fade in if you wish.
PS. To create keyframes click P and your cursor will become the Pen (Keyframe) tool.
