by the animation API. Here's how to fade out an actor (until it's
completely transparent) using implicit animations:</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">/* fade out actor over 4000 milliseconds */
clutter_actor_animate (actor,
CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_CUBIC,
4000,
"opacity", 0,
NULL);</pre></div><p>Here's an example of a rectangle fading out using this
animation:</p><p><video controls="controls" src="videos/animations-fading-out.ogv"><a href="videos/animations-fading-out.ogv"></a></video></p><p><code class="constant">CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_CUBIC</code> is one of the
Clutter easing modes; see
<a class="link" href="animations.html#animations-introduction-alphas" title="1.2. Alphas">the introduction</a>
for more details about what these are and how to choose one.</p><p>Here's an example of the transitions you could use to
fade an actor in and out using <span class="type">ClutterState</span>:</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">ClutterState *transitions = clutter_state_new ();
/* all transitions last for 2000 milliseconds */
clutter_state_set_duration (transitions, NULL, NULL, 2000);
/* transition from any state to "fade-out" state */
clutter_state_set (transitions,
NULL, /* from state (NULL means "any") */
"fade-out", /* to state */
actor, "opacity", CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_QUAD, 0,
NULL);
/* transition from any state to "fade-in" state */
clutter_state_set (transitions, NULL, "fade-in",
actor, "opacity", CLUTTER_EASE_OUT_QUAD, 255,
NULL);
/* put the actor into the "fade-out" state with no animation */
clutter_state_warp_to_state (transitions, "fade-out");</pre></div><p>You would then trigger an animated state change as events
occur in the application (e.g. mouse button clicks):</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting">clutter_state_set_state (transitions, "fade-in");</pre></div><p>Here's an example of this animation fading in then out again:</p><p><video controls="controls" src="videos/animations-fading-in-then-out.ogv"><a href="videos/animations-fading-in-then-out.ogv"></a></video></p><div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p><span class="type">ClutterState</span> is most useful where you
need to animate an actor backwards and forwards between multiple
states (e.g. fade an actor in and out of view). Where you just
want to fade an actor in or out once,
<code class="function">clutter_actor_animate()</code> is adequate.</p></div></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="idp61558496"></a>3.3. Discussion</h3></div></div></div><p>Reducing an actor's transparency to zero does not make it
inactive: the actor will still be reactive even if it's not
visible (responding to key events, mouse clicks etc.).
To make it really "disappear", you could use
<code class="function">clutter_actor_hide()</code> once you'd made the actor
fully transparent.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="animations-inversion.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="animations.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="animations-rotating.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">2.
