Storyboard.removeAll() and transition effects

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I’ve  been using the storyboard.removeAll() function at the beginning of every scene so that I don’t have to manually remove everything on the scene exit. This was suggested a few times in storyboard tutorials I’ve read over the net.

However, my problem with that method is that while this clears out the scene well, it interferes with my fade transitions when I switch scenes using gotoScene. The removeAll function removes my background image without fading out first.

Any ideas how to prevent the removeAll from removing my background?

Thanks.

not show if I’m using it in the correct why, but what I do is call all my content in the createScene section, and then after that use removeAll in my enterScene

function scene:createScene( event ) -- background/buttons/content in here end scene:addEventListener( "createScene" ) function scene:enterScene( event ) storyboard.removeAll() end scene:addEventListener( "enterScene" )
