i've always wondered this, but i've never quite gotten a straight answer. how exactly would i go about causing a small string of text, such as a title or quote, to fade in slowly on-screen, and then fade out in the same fashion? thanks, everyone.

FADE BITMAP
This command will fade the contents of a specified Bitmap. You must specify a fade value that sets the level of fading from zero which fades the bitmap completely to black, up to 100 which does not fade the bitmap at all. Fade operations are slow and the completion time depends on the size of the bitmap. The parameters should be specified using integer values.

SYNTAX
FADE BITMAP Bitmap Number, Fade Value

Thanks in advance.
All the Best,
