SOLVED:Fade From & To Black Layout Transitions

<font size="5">SOLVED:Fade From & To Black Layout Transitions</font>

Hi,

I am trying to create a screen transition:

fade from black/fade to black

when introducing new layouts.

Can someone help me to get this working?

I basically have a black colored sprite

that is same dimensions as the game's screen

and the desired effect would be to change the opacity of the sprite

to show fade from black/fade to black screen transitions.

(fade from black when starting a layout and fade to black when ending a layout)

I'm totally new to "Construct 2" IDE...Help would be appreciated!

Perfect! Thanks. For any one looking the "ExitingScreen" is a Boolean instance variable.

You could also have used the Fade behavior, that would have required 0 line of code.

nito That was what I was thinking the entire time reading this thread.

But you can't do a behavior on an entire layout, would be awesome if you could (unless there is a way).

Wait my brain just kicked in, give the sprite the fade behavior.....silly me.
