ssharp_admin Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 What is the best practice if I wanted a number or letter to have a pulsing glow animation? I was planning on making a text object that would have methods to glow different colors. I was hoping tow tween between two images to get a nice effect but I am not sure if that would be possible. Anyone try this out or something similar? SSharp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssharp_admin Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 I am leaning toward tweening because of the example but I am a bit concerned about loading a bunch of images to fade in and out with. So I want a number to glow 5 different colors so I would need the base number and five glowing images. Since I will not know the set up ahead of time I would need a set for 0-9 and a few letters. That seems cumbersome. I am at a loss for the best way to approach. What is the guideline for the amount of stuff you preload Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayfinder Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 You could try to make a gray/white glow image and tint it 5 different ways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex_h Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I've achieved a pulsing glow before using exactly that approach, fading in and out a glow image behind the text image, so I can confirm it works fine. Wayfinders tinting suggestion is a very good way to work around the multiple glow image requirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
