Description

Description:

Sets wanted transparency for control animation. Requires ctrlCommit to commit changes. To hide or show a control instantly, use ctrlShow.

⚠

Despite having fade = 1; inside the config of a control, ctrlFade will still report a fade of 0.

Which results in ctrlSetFade 0 doing nothing.

To counter that, first use ctrlSetFade 1, then ctrlCommit 0 ( to instantly apply it ), and then you can use ctrlSetFade to set the fade to any value you wish.

ⓘ

If there are multiple (interact-able) controls on top of each other but the top-most is faded using ctrlSetFade 1, the top-most control will interfere with controls that were defined earlier and in the exact same position. To counter that, the faded control needs to be disabled with ctrlEnable.

in Arma 3 2.17, when ctrlSetFade is used on a CtrlToolbox or RscToolbox, it only has effect on the text of it.
