[Resolved] transition problem

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Just going through the tutorials. Can anyone see anything wrong with the code below? Getting the text but the transition isn’t doing anything. Have saved and do ctrl R etc:

local text = display.newText(“Hello World!”, 50,50, nil, 36)
text:setTextColour(255,255,255)

transition.to(text, {time = 2000, alpha = 0}) [import]uid: 94653 topic_id: 26100 reply_id: 326100[/import]

American spelling of “color”

[lua]text:setTextColor(255,255,255)[/lua] [import]uid: 8271 topic_id: 26100 reply_id: 105694[/import]
