How can I make an imported photo fading to white? 1

[itais]

I know it must be very easy, but I realy tried and tried and couldn't find a solution.
I tried to brak it apart - doesn't work.
I tried to convert it to symbol - doesn't work.

Anyone knows what's the trick?

Thanks,
Itai

place a white rectangle over the photo. convert it to a movie clip and fade it in.

place the white rectangle over the photo

make it a movie clip (F8) and give it an instance name of clip say

add to main timeline

clip._alpha = 0;
fadephoto = setInterval(fade,100);
function fade(){
clip._alpha += 2;
if (clip._alpha >=99){
clearInterval(fadephoto);
}
}

well.. i make would make a tween animation with the photo and then set to white. I don't know how big ur photo is ..maybe with big files it's not a good idea.

or u fade-in a white area as a tween over the photo

Thanks, guys, it worked best with the Graphic Symbol. I've used the Alfa Effect (0%) to Fade it into White.
Thanks again,
