Is this done with KoolMoves?

Can someone tell me if the transition between images shown on the page below was created with KoolMoves, Swish or another program? Images fade into each other as a grid of squares sweeps across.

Thanks, Gary

Just from looking at it one would not be able to tell you which authoring program they've used.

It could have been.
It could be done though. I know actionscript but this would be beyond my code skills.

I've seen this effect used on different sites so I assume there's a program that will produce it.

It's not a default in Koolmoves as far as I can tell, but it can be done in actionscript in KM

Pretty sure that is a senocular based example (though I can't find the exact one). Look through his flash source files for transitions (he has a bunch)

similar to:

Search Google for "Flash 8 transitions" :thumbsup:

My bad. It was actionscript.com

My guess is it's this exact component for Flash:

Example of all effects running here:

In case someone cares, the code below is an example of replacing the gui chosen effects of a slideshow component with the one asked for. The slideshow component is expected to be named slideshow1. Remus' example is great, performs better (less cpu load) and only requires flash 7. The code below is just to show it's possible to add a custom effect to the slideshow component. Most code is used to create the bitmap image representing the effect.// effect code

sw = slideshow1._miw;
sh = slideshow1._mih;

bs = 50;

cols = Math.ceil(sw / bs);
rows = Math.ceil(sh / bs);

_global.KC8_Transit0 = new flash.display.BitmapData(sw + 1,sh + 1,false);

mf = 255 / ((cols-1) * 5 + bs / 2 - 1);

for (col = 0; col < cols; col++){
for (i = 0; i < bs / 2; i++){
KC8_Transit0.fillRect(new flash.geom.Rectangle(col * bs + i, i, bs - i * 2, bs - i * 2),(col * 5 + bs / 2 - i - 1)*mf);
}
}

for (row = 0; row < rows; row++){
KC8_Transit0.copyPixels(KC8_Transit0, new flash.geom.Rectangle(0,0,cols * bs, bs),new flash.geom.Point(0,row * bs));
}

// assign user effect to slides

slideshow1.onLoad = function(){
for (var i = 0; i <= this._lastslide; i++) this._slides[i][0] = 0xf80ffcc0;
}

Now that I see Remus's link...that has to be the one I vaguely remembered. Jolie kind of sinches it and is definitely the one I had in my head as having seen previously now that I see it again.

Sorry for getting that wrong Remus....it's been a while since I saw it. :thumbsup:
