RealPix: Examples
February 1, 1999
In our example from the last article we had a number of graphics
which transitioned through a series of wipes. This file was called
wdvl.rp. In this article I'll show you how to create an alternative
wdvl.rp file that includes some more of the possible transitions,
wipes and fades that are available in RealPix. Simply substitute
this wdvl.rp file for the one given in the last article and you
should see some new transitions between the graphics. We'll continue
to use the same graphics files that we used in the first example.
The graphics we used are three stand-in headline graphics:
In our example we'll use each of the different transitions, wipes
and fades that we talked about above. This may not make for the
prettiest slide show, but it gives you an idea of the possibilities.
Here is the code you should use for this new
wdvl.smi .
<imfl>
<head
width = "160"
height = "120"
start = "0"
duration = "20"
timeformat = "dd:hh:mm:ss.xyz"
bitrate = "12000"
url = "http://www.wdvl.com"/>
<image handle = "1" name="headline1.jpg"/>
<image handle = "2" name="headline2.jpg"/>
<image handle = "3" name="headline3.jpg"/>
<fill start = "0" color="blue"/>
<fadein start = "4"
duration = "3"
target = "1"/>
<wipe type = "push"
direction = "right"
start = "3"
duration = "2"
target = "1"/>
<crossfade start = "8"
duration = "2"
target = "2"/>
<wipe type = "push"
direction = "left"
start = "13"
duration = "2"
target = "3"/>
<fadeout start = "18"
duration = "2"
color = "blue"/>
