player gets stuck when i hide a field

[problème]

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

[Klaus]

Hi problème,

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?

Hello,
In fact it was one of my function that blocked the player. otherwise, everything works normally

thanks for the help

[Klaus]

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