Hi everyone,
I posted this on direct-l but...
I am trying to 'open' a MIAW from behind my stage and move it to the
right until it is at a certain location, removed from the stage.
In general, no.
But If a MIAW's branded stage size is large & the drawRect (the part
you see) is smaller & gets altered (animated), then some 'MIAW stage
animation' can appear to happen.
I am using irregular shapes for the movies and I would like to
create the appearance of components sliding in and out of position
as required.
I have only minimal experience with this feature in DMX04 but in
previous versionsm you can't do this with an irregular shape as they
seem to position themselves automatically (their rect aligns to
(0,0)) & can't be shifted. (as far as I know)
also the application of the irregular shape causes a stage flash so
that sawpping shapes to make animation had never been a viable option.
Can this be done without extras?
Can A MIAW be opened 'behind' the stage?
sure - there's a MIAW.moveToBack command

-Buzz
any help would be appeciated muchly,
Thanks
