How do I Change effects value

Say i wanna change the Pixellate effect size when pressing a key, in the event sheet how do i do that?

Thanks in advance :)

Sprite: Set effect "Pixellate" parameter 0 to <value>

Thanks for replying so fast!, it worked but is there a way to make the value changes smoothly (like opacity fading)

You can use timers or look into lerp() or the LiteTween add-on. These last two can be used to change any value 'smoothly' or in different ways, including your effect value.

codah I saw your litetween endorsement coming a mile away on this one. haha.

you could also use a variable that you set the parameter to

and have that variable add to itself while the key is down.

Hey spacedoubt I mentioned lerp first

Thanks for the help, but i don't know how to use lerp or litetween on effects.. a capx would be great

Can't right now sorry but I'm sure someone will soon! If you search lerp in the forum, manual and tutorials you will find lots of info.

Also what spacedoubt said

Alright, thanks guys for replying so fast

I'll make ya one..

what are you using it for?

or at least, can you tell me the minimum and maximum values for the pixellate size?

Hey, codah to lerp, I'm still gonna have to use a variable, right? Is there any other way to get the effect parameter into the lerp expression?

well.. here it is..

hold p to pixellate!

Wow, that's cool.. is there a way to trigger it by only clicking once, so it changes from 1 to 16 smoothly from one click?

This is probably where litetween comes in handy. heh..

Quickest way that comes to mind:

lerp is a function that returns a value so you could plug it straight in, using some sort of loop.

Edit: sorry this was out of sync. I didn't see earlier responses

That's it!, that's what i was looking for.. thank you for helping a noob like me :)
