This command sets the amount of fade. For example:
<code>
_ctrl ctrlSetFade 1; // hides the control<br>
_ctrl ctrlSetFade 0.5; // control is 50% visible<br>
_ctrl ctrlSetFade 0; // control is fully visible
</code>
</dd>

<dd class="note">
The resulting fade speed seems like is not exactly what [[ctrlCommit]] commands it to be, as is dependant on your current framerate. Example:
<code>_ctrl ctrlSetFade 0.5;
_ctrl ctrlCommit 1;
</code>
Will actually result in:
<code>'''[60 FPS and higher]''' = ~1.0 seconds
'''[30 FPS and around]''' = ~1.2 seconds
'''[10 FPS and anything lower]''' = ~5-10 seconds
</code>
This phenomenon probably occurs because of engine time simulation disruption caused by performance damage.

Description

Description:
Sets wanted transparency for control animation. Requires ctrlCommit to commit changes. To hide or show a control instantly, use ctrlShow.
ⓘ
If there are multiple (interactable) controls on top of each other but the top-most control is faded using ctrlSetFade 1,

this control will interfere with other controls that were defined earlier and in the exact same position.

To counter that, the faded control must be disabled with ctrlEnable.
Problems:
Despite having fade = 1; in a control's config, ctrlFade will still report a fade of 0 - resulting in ctrlSetFade 0 doing nothing.
To counter that, first use ctrlSetFade 1, then ctrlCommit 0 to apply it, and only then ctrlSetFade can be used as usual.
Groups:
GUI Control

Syntax

Syntax:
controlName ctrlSetFade fade
Parameters:
controlName: Control

Return Value:
Nothing
