Hi and TIA for this

 

Used this program for years and never had a prob, til today

 

In creating animated gif I want to fade each state so it disappears and then reappears, 5 fade out, 5 fade back in.

 

yeah, nah....when i press duplicate state and alter the transparency, it copies that transparency to EVERY state!??
why??

 

please LMK how i can stop it doing that and just let me alter my transparency setting separtately without copying to every one

thanks!!

    I can't duplicate this issue, are you on PC? I'm assuming you are as new versions of Mac don't support 32 bit apps. Are you setting the opacity in the Properties panel?  Click on each state and set the opacity as desired in the Properties panel, make sure in the Layers panel you keep the layer at 100%. opacity

    For what I think, if FW's @OrangeLodge30367744w3d2 is running, is that it is not running under a non working OS... 🙂

    and that is what was commenting @L e n a ... opâcity on object not on layer

    well, it could be running on an older version of Mac, or on a a virtual machine on newer version of Mac, so it is good to clarify which OS.

    Once the state has been duplicated, can't you modify the transparency of the object?

     

    Just in case, make sure you haven't added transparency to the layer, because then it could be common for each of the states depending on the build?

      Thats what I did before, what mine is doing instead is copying the
      transparency into EVERY state (maybe a setting got messed up somewhere??)

      So like 100%, 70%, 40%, 10% - when i change ANY of them in a different
      state, it makes ALL of them the same value. All the same transparency
      instead of having them different.

      When I press PLAY they dont move or animate as they are all the same
      transparency

      ANy ideas? Thanks!
