Applying a Show transition

[qirien]

I have some buttons for sorting that get shown when the users clicks on a different button. I wanted them to slide in with a fade when they get shown, but I can't get the ATL to do that. It will do on hover and on idle, but no matter what I put in on show it never seems to do it.

Here's the ATL code:

Code: Select all

    transform slidefadeleft:
        on show:
            xoffset -10.0  alpha 0.0
            easein 2.5 xoffset 0.0 alpha 1.0

Then I have a screen like this:

Code: Select all

screen sort_buttons()
    imagebutton:
        idle imagefile
        at slidefadeleft
        action SetVariable("sortby", "calories")

And this screen is called from another screen like this:

Code: Select all

screen crops:
    textbutton "Sort By" xalign 0.0 action ToggleScreenVariable("show_sort")
        if (show_sort):
            use sort_buttons

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better way to do this?

Thank you; that's exactly what I needed! I always used "if" so I didn't know that you should use "showif"...
