Hi, I have a vector that I want this object to flash continuously. I read that three ways of doing it:
1. Animation object.
2. easier
3. Via a script, that sets the transparency of the object to a different level (and waits with delay).
You explain items 1 and 2, but how I will make the three ways
Please give me some tips
Thanks

Hi, macdiseno,

it would help if you beforehand could describe what you mean with "flashing". Blink (on/off)? Fade-in/out? What kind of object, a box, a picture?

And I do not understand what you mean with "vector"?

Thanks
Matthias

Hi, Matthias
When i say “vector” it mean a picture box (or any shape)
When I say flashing I would like to fade a color shape to transparent and later back to original color (loop)

Is it posible do it with scripts
Thanks

Hi, macdiseno,

yes, the trick is the delay action. Assume you want to flash a box called "Fadelement".

How to do:
1. Create a new script, called "Fader".
2. First action is Loop
3. Add next action: Object > Hide > Fadelement > Transparent Out > 2 seconds
4. Next action: Delay > Time > 2 seconds
5. Next action: Object > Show > Fadelement > Transparent In > 2 seconds
6. Next action: Delay > Time > 2 seconds
7. Add last action: End Loop
8. Make this script your page entry script.

Does that work?

Best regards
Matthias
