Screen Transition Missing

Hi,

Just trying to learn Construct using Crazie Robbie tutorial. My screen transitions menu is blank. If I load the Crazie Robbie v2 tutorial file, I see the 2 that it uses. However, if I follow tutorial or start with a new file none appear.

Construct 1 r2 (latest)

Windows 7 Professional (64 bit)

8 GB RAM

NVidia 1GB 4870 Gfx Card

Latest Direct X

Done a search in the forum for "Missing Transitions" but didnt find anything. Also tried re-installing. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Screen transitions seem to screw up everything, I had to remove them from my game to get it to work

My pull-down menu with them is blank??? Its not that important, was just wanding if it was common.

Ohh, that might be because you have to add them to your project first or something along those lines. I forget how to do that at the moment but I'll have a look later for you.

Jayjay is correct. This info is on the wiki here:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/c ... ransitions

Granted, that particular section isn't very in-depth, but it does state that you need to add transitions in the layout properties before you can use them.

Moved thread to Help/Tech

Also, transitions have been known to be a bit buggy in the past. I am not entirely sure if they have ever been improved, I personally haven't used them in years. It's relatively easy to make your own transitions anyway, especially if it is something as simple as fade to or from black. Just put a black Tiled Background on the top layer and change it's opacity.
