Overlay help, anyone?

[Ebx]

Hiya! I don’t know if this is a really stupid question, but I’m a little stuck. Is there a way that you can have an overlay fade away in a story?
Like, I want to zoom in on a character, and have the overlay (that covers some of their body) to fade away, but I have no idea how to do that.
Any help is much appreciated

You mean have the overlay fade and then that part of their body visible?

@zoom on x y to % in s
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0 in 2
0 is invisible and 2 is the amount of seconds it would take to fade, you can substitute your own values in!

Yes

Probably like this:
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.1 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.2 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.3 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.4 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.5 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.6 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.7 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.8 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.9 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 1 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.9 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.8 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.7 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.6 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.5 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.4 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.3 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.2 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0.1 in time
@overlay OVERLAYNAME opacity 0 in time

Unless there’s another way…?

Thank you! I was putting in the word “changes” and that’s why it wasn’t working
