Hi GAHSIM,

Are you trying to have pictures transition from one to the other on the front panel?  Do you mean a 2D picture control when you say picture frames?  If you want to use the ActiveX Xshow, then you can use an ActiveX container, which would probably be able to show pictures transitioning.

Jarred, actually I use a 2D picture control, I want to apply transition effects to pictures and then draw out transition effect frames as a bitmap or jpg pictures

Xshow doesn't work for me because it has it's own indicator and there is no output parameter to utilize

thx Jarred

You can use Create Mask and a little creativity to make a transition.  I generate a "classic" transition between two pictures as an array of pictures.  You can export the individual frames using the Picture pallete VIs if you wish.

I needed data for two pictures, so one is the classic vase from altenbach's rotation example and the other is the diamond plate that ships with LV.  They are stored in the two controls on the FP as default data.  The cluster of those controls is the standard image data that is returned from the 'Read JPG/PNG/BMP File' VIs.  You can either replace those controls with calls to 'Read JPEG File' to read two pictures from disk and generate the transition, or use the example as a subVI and pass the image data (you may need to wire the connector pane).   Let me know if you need more help.
