Hi, is there a way to create a diaporama by stacking photos over each other and have them become visible in sequence? It seems to me it would be a great feature in WE! Is it already on the wish list?

Another way 'would be' to use behaviour. I tried but either I am not clever enough to understand the use of the existing options, or the tutorial fails to explain how to use them. Or should I suggest to include the following features to the Behaviour Event Editor:

+ End Event / After Specified Duration ...
+ Actions / When Triggered Active / Hidden
+ Actions / When Not Active / Hidden
+ Formulas / Send result to another Object when DEactivated

Would not this allow creating sequences of objects appearing and disappearing at varied intervals?

Also, while we are at it, concerning Path Motion Events, why not add 'At Path Start' to Dynamic Triggers and to Dynamic Resets?

All the best.

Diaporama -- now there's a word I haven't seen before Smile

Here's one way of making a timed slideshow. It doesn't use any of the special features of Web Engine.

I'm not qualified to answer your other questions -- I'll leave those to the experts...

Thanks, sure that can be done with JavaScript. My point is to see if it can be done with the animation features of WE, thinking it could be used not only for a slide show.

Fanti,

The functions you have described are in the Behavior Event Editor, under the Trigger Event, End Event, and Actions tabs. Try setting the Active times at different numbers, you should be able to get one object to appear as another one disappears.
