[Proto-Scripty] Re: Effect.Morph applied to background image

2010-04-26 Thread Jinsa
Hi all!

So, what I've done in order to make it work is to use the "Protofade
plugin" (you can test it there: http://cssrevolt.com/upload/files/protofade/).
I modified a little bit my point of view by making two divs flying
over the background. In those divs I put my pictures into unordered
list. The Protofade plugin makes the morph transition between each
pictures making a pretty cool result!

So, that's the way I made it, it works great so don't hesitate to try
it ;)

Bye,

Jinsa.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Effect.Morph applied to background image

2010-04-11 Thread Walter Lee Davis
In order to morph between two images, you need to have stacked both of  
them, then fade the front one out. That gets you a perfect cross-fade  
between the images. So to get behind your background image, if it's on  
a DIV, just clone a div behind the background and fade out the  
background. I think. As I write this, I'm thinking you can't change  
the opacity of a background image, only of a "foreground" image. So  
maybe clone two DIVs behind the original DIV, remove the background  
image from the original, and do the cross-fade between the two clones.  
And if you're trying to get behind the main page background, that's  
going to be considerably harder 8-)

The size change is just a fact I've put in order to check the
effect.morph was running, in real case I don't need it.

That sounds quite a deal to do some bgimage morphing, do you have some
idea in order to make it?

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Effect.Morph applied to background image

2010-04-11 Thread Junkshops
If you're looking for a real morph effect, where one image slowly
flows and changes into the next, there's no way scriptaculous or
prototype could do that. Generally speaking, as I understand it, if
you couldn't do the animation yourself by changing css/style tags and
reloading over and over, scripty can't do it either.

You'd have to use an anigif or flash or something.

The opacity idea posted above seems like the best bet if you want to
stick with JS based solutions.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Effect.Morph applied to background image

2010-04-11 Thread DJ Mangus
That is all i can think of.  Quite heavy handed to have such a
transition, but doable.  Possibly always have a clone behind the
transitioning element and just morph the opacity of the one on top
anytime you want to change the background.

Btw, the reason morph only effects what it does is that the only
things that can easily calculate in between stages are effected.  Ie,
you cannot 'tween' the change of typesets, either.

Hey Junkshops :)

First I would thank you for your answer. The setStyle may solve the
problem linked to the background image (what a shame that morph don't
work with bgimage :/) but the problem is that I won't get the "morph"
effect between the bakground change which is what I am searching for.
I'm thinking of a clone appearing as the same time the real one
disappears but it seems very complicated to solve a "tiny" problem
right?

The size change is just a fact I've put in order to check the
effect.morph was running, in real case I don't need it.

That sounds quite a deal to do some bgimage morphing, do you have some
idea in order to make it?
