Class TGUIInOutFader

DescriptionHierarchyFieldsMethodsProperties

Unit

Declaration

type TGUIInOutFader = class(TGUIElement)

Description

Element for fading out or in.
Here is a small example on how the class is used. In this example we fade in from a total red screen in the beginning. As you can see, the fader is not only useful for dramatic in and out fading, but also to show that the player is hit in a first person shooter game for example.

    with GUIEnvironment.AddInOutFader do begin
        fader.Color := ARGBColor(0,255,0,0);
        fader.FadeIn(4000);
    end;
