Making 2 labels fade "into" each other

GtwoK · 2010-10-15 05:59

I have 2 labels placed on top of each other, of which I would like one appearing at a time. Every 8 seconds, the current one should fade out and the new one fade in. How would I go about accomplishing this? I'm currently trying

Code:

            <control type="grouplist" id="26">

                <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200" condition="!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title) + !IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title) + Control.IsVisible(25)">Conditional</animation>

                <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200" delay="8000" condition="!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title) + !IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title) + !Control.IsVisible(26)">Conditional</animation>

                <posx>30</posx> 

                <posy>38</posy> 

                <width>600</width> 

                <height>40</height> 

                <itemgap>6</itemgap>

                <align>left</align>

                <orientation>horizontal</orientation>

                <visible>!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title)</visible>

                <control type="label">

                    <width min="10" max="600">auto</width>

                    <height>38</height>

                    <aligny>center</aligny>

                    <font>Font_OSDInfoLabelHeading</font>

                    <textcolor>OSDInfo</textcolor>

                    <label>[b]$LOCALIZE[210]:[/b]</label>

                </control>

                <control type="fadelabel">

                    <width min="10" max="600">auto</width>

                    <height>40</height> 

                    <aligny>center</aligny>

                    <scrollout>false</scrollout>

                    <pauseatend>3800</pauseatend>

                    <scrollspeed>80</scrollspeed>

                    <scroll>true</scroll>

                    <font>Font_OSDInfoLabel</font>

                    <textcolor>OSDInfo</textcolor>

                    <label>$INFO[MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title]</label>

                </control>

            </control>

            <control type="grouplist" id="25">

                <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200" condition="!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title) + !IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title) + !Control.IsVisible(26)">Conditional</animation>

                <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200" delay="8000" condition="!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(-1).Title) + !IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title) + Control.IsVisible(25)">Conditional</animation>

                <posx>30</posx> 

                <posy>38</posy> 

                <width>600</width> 

                <height>40</height> 

                <itemgap>6</itemgap>

                <align>left</align>

                <orientation>horizontal</orientation>

                <visible>!IsEmpty(MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title)</visible>

                <control type="label">

                    <width min="10" max="600">auto</width>

                    <height>38</height>

                    <aligny>center</aligny>

                    <font>Font_OSDInfoLabelHeading</font>

                    <textcolor>OSDInfo</textcolor>

                    <label>[b]$LOCALIZE[209]:[/b]</label>

                </control>

                <control type="fadelabel">

                    <width min="10" max="600">auto</width>

                    <height>40</height>

                    <aligny>center</aligny>

                    <scrollout>false</scrollout>

                    <pauseatend>3800</pauseatend>

                    <scrollspeed>80</scrollspeed>

                    <scroll>true</scroll>

                    <font>Font_OSDInfoLabel</font>

                    <textcolor>OSDInfo</textcolor>

                    <label>$INFO[MusicPlayer.offset(1).Title]</label>

                </control>

            </control>

But it doesn't work - try it to see.
