Popup close animation

0 votes

Hi! Here I found how to open popup with animation. But how to do same on closeing? I tried this:

func popup_hide():
    var tween : Tween = get_node("Tween")
    tween.interpolate_property(self, "modulate:a", self.modulate.a, 0.0, 0.3, Tween.TRANS_LINEAR, Tween.EASE_IN)
   tween.start()

But it doesn't work for me. It looks like I should to run animation and use popup.hide() only after it. But how to use it for non-exlusive popups? Or are there other way?

Thanks

What is your working code to open it?

(Sorry putting this as an answer. Fat fingers.)

Why you put it into answer, not comment?

Okay.

func _ready():
    connect("about_to_show", self, "_on_about_to_show")
    ...

func _on_about_to_show():
    var tw = Tween.new()
    add_child(tw)
    tw.interpolate_property(self, "modulate:a", 0.0, 0.99, 0.2, Tween.TRANS_LINEAR, Tween.EASE_IN)
    tw.start()

Popups aren't really meant to have a closing animation. I think it would be easier for you to just use a normal panel or something like that to animate it closing.
