Message-ID: <4WDj8Ty00Ug58fA05j@andrew.cmu.edu> Date: 16 Mar 88 21:22:39 GMT Organization: Carnegie Mellon University Lines: 14 Hi, I was writing a simple graphics program when I wanted to implement a fade in and out of my objects. I set up a palette and it functions properly. I would like to use the animate_entry command to make the object fade, but this command is not working. According to Inside Mac V, you need to set the animated bit. I have tried doing this using the SetEntryUsage, but have come to no avail (when I called SetEntryUsage, I called with usage = the system constant animated and tolerance=0. Any ideas on what to change? (oh yeah, I am using PMForeColor to draw my objs) Thanx, we08.
