Hello
I put a field in front of a player, when i hide the field with visual effect dissolve, the player gets stuck untill the field disappears
Code: Select all
hide field "field" with visual effect dissolve
or
Code: Select all
wait for 10 seconds
set the visible of field unChamp to false

Bonsoir problème
unfortunately that's the way visual effects work -> completely blocking!
Use this workaround to fade the field in/out by using its blendlevel property
Code: Select all
...
## Fade out in 1 secs
repeat with i = 0 to 100 step 10
set the blendlevel of fld "the one in front of the player" to i
wait 100 millisecs with messages
end repeat
...
Same for fading in, but in that case repeat from 100 down to 0
Best

I have LiveCode 7.0.6 | Build 10038 on Windows 8.1
I will download LC 7.1.1
i tried too without "wait", the player block as well
Code: Select all
repeat with i = 0 to 100 step 0.0001
set the blendlevel of fld unChamp to i
end repeat

...STEP 0.0001?
Mon dieu, that will take a whole WEEK to execute!
And without a WAIT clause here you will probably need to KILL LC in the task manger, I'm afraid!
Please look up the meaning of the STEP parameter in the dictionary.
Did you try my script at all?

OK, but nevertheless you should re-think about "..STEP 0.0001 "!
