Button hover off?

[Kinmoku]

Hi all,

Is it possible to have an animation play when a button is, not only hovered over, but hovered off/ unhovered? I'd like the hover image to fade out, like it fades in.

Button:

Code: Select all

            imagebutton idle "gui/auto_off.png" selected_idle "gui/auto_select.png" hover "gui/auto_on.png" clicked Preference("auto-forward", "toggle") focus_mask None at imagehover

In script.rpy:

Code: Select all

transform imagehover:
    on hover:
        alpha 0.0
        linear 1.0 alpha 1.0
        
    on hide:
        alpha 1.0
        linear 1.0 alpha 0.0

I tried "on idle" instead of "on hide" too, but it fades out when idle, as expected lol! On hide sadly does nothing.

Isn't idle state just an unhovered state?

Set the default alpha at 0.0, then use the "on idle" event to set it back to 0.

Code: Select all

transform imagehover:
    alpha 0.0
    on hover:
        alpha 0.0
        linear 1.0 alpha 1.0
        
    on idle:
        linear 1.0 alpha 0.0

(no way of actually testing it, but it worked for me on positions and offsets).

Sorry it took me a while to get back. It doesn't work how I want it to, which is to fade out the hover image only. This code *works* but fades out the idle image instead, so no button shows after you hover off.

When I hover off, the images switch instantly, then idle fades out. I want Idle to stay and hover to fade out. I hope this is clear ^^;

Any ideas on how to get this working?
