Up to Global Variables

Definition

INT fading = false

Fading is a global variable, holding whether the screen is currently fading. This can be caused by the functions fade(), fade_on() or fade_off(). Its value will be true if there is fading going on and false if not.

Example

Program faders;
Private
    int text_id;
Begin

    // Write something
    text_id = write(0,160,100,4,"Look at this fading text!");

    // Fade screen on and off
    fade_off_and_on();

    // Wait for ESC key
    Repeat
        frame;
    Until(key(_ESC))

    // Kill all other processes and clear up text
    let_me_alone();
    delete_text(text_id);

End

Process fade_off_and_on()
Begin
    Loop
        fade(0,0,0,4); // Fade to black
        while(fading) frame; end // Wait for the fading to finish
        fade(100,100,100,4); // Fade to normal
        while(fading) frame; end // Wait for the fading to finish
    End
End

Used in example: write(), key(), let_me_alone(), delete_text(), fade()
