A decent crossfade is pretty easy to do with Imaging Lingo, or you can get whole sets of OpenGL based transitions from DirectXtras, including some incredible crossfade stuff, and others that make Keynote's look like... well, still a decent presentation package, I guess - but one with a lot less openGL-based tansitions than Director has.

bug not fixed - Version: 10.1r11, 9/17/2004 09:29AM PST

hginnow

it's hard to believe: they still didn't fix a ug that's really offending and superfluous. Or am I missing something? On my PowerBook G4, when setting the stage to Location 0,0 (upper left) in the DisplayTemplate in authoring mode, when switching to full screen, the stage remains where it was with the menu bar visible. When I do a presentation by video projector switching to full screen the stage does not go to the upper left and my buttons etc. are outside the picture.
And the built-in transitions are still Director 4 (or earlier). A decent cross-fade remains absent.

After the upgrade, entering "trace(_system.environmentPropList.productVersion)" at the message window like MM suggests, still traces "10.0" in Panther.
