Call Screen Pause (Solved)

#1 Post by Westeford »

Quick question, sorry for the rushed typing.
So I'm calling a screen. I use a transform on show and on hide. Whenever I call the screen, the screen's contents appear before the transition is complete. Is there a way to do this?

Thank you.

Just a thought, Untested.

call a screen that fades in or whatever you want, and give it a timer. when the timer runs out, call the screen you're trying to show.

Found the problem. I needed to apply the transform to each of the screen's elements. Like for each imagemap, grid, text, fixed, etc.
