I have a scene which transitions in with a slide left. I also have some objects that are off screen to the left and right, these objects animate into view after the scene is loaded. The problem is that the off screen objects are visible “in the wings” as the storyboard transition takes place.
Is there an option to mask a scene?
i wish there would be some option like the css overflow hidden for displaygroups, but apparently there isnt.
you could use a bitmap mask, but that would propably be more complicated than just having a little workaround.
that’s how i solved it,
on the initial state of the scene (the one which got the objects outside of the screens bounds) i set all objects that shall be hidden outside the screen to
[lua]
myObject.isVisible = false
[/lua]
and just change that to true one line before the transition is fired.
cheers,
Michael
