Making Text Appear After the ShowEffect has Finished (Stop the Flex Tutorial Example from Looping)

Hi,

I set-up the looping text example from the Flex tutorial and it is working fine. But, I can't figure out how to get the showEffect to stop after it's done. The text appears and then disappears. I commented out the hideEffect code. Basically, I want what happens in the online demo. The text effect plays and then stops after all of the letters have appeared. Do I use addChild and add the text again after the showEffect has completed? Any advice or suggestions?

Thank you.

Hi,

Okay. I made an error.

I got it to stop. I commented out:

//myEffect.addEventListener(FLASHEFFEvents.TRANSITION_END, restartShowEffect);

//myEffect.hideTransition = hideEffect;

in order to stop the loop.

I'm glad that you manage to solve this.

i would like to stop text effect after one loop, but i would like thah pictures are going to loop further, is it possible? and what i need to do?

That's quite simple, on transition_end event you need to call the removeAll method FlashEeff.
