Hi, I've been exploring the wonderful world of effects and transitions recently... there's something I would *love* to be able to do - but I suspect this is not possible. Could someone confirm or deny accordingly ?!
Here's the idea... I have a horizontal list which consists of a set of charts. This list is quite small - acting really, like a row of thumbnails for the charts. If the user clicks on a chart, it appears in a nice big readable size in a popup window. Now... what I'd like to do is apply a 'zoom' style transition from the clicked list element to the popup window so that the popup appears to zoom out of the list itself. Actually, as I write this, a *possible* solution has occurred to me... (1) The user clicks on an element on the list (2) This causes a totall borderless popup window to be created, exactly over the chart in the list that the user clicked on. This would appear 'invisble' to the user since visually it should look the same. (3) A sequence (consisting of a zoom effect and move) is applied to the popup to expand it and bring it into the centre of the screen. If this is possible, I *think* it would look ok ? Question then is, how to achieve (2)... Or am I barking up the wrong tree ?! Jamie.
