51 * This effect will grab a screenshot and then slowly fade it to gray,
52 * rendering each frame on the pixmap you pass to the constructor.
53 * The animation will begin when you call start(), and each time the
54 * pixmap is updated, update() will be called in the @p parent widget,
55 * which must then paint the pixmap.
57 * The actual blending is done in a separate thread to keep the event
58 * loop alive.
60 * The FadeEffect can safely be deleted at any time, even while the
61 * effect is running, but it's important that the pixmap isn't deleted
62 * before the effect object.

65 * @param pixmap The pixmap the effect will be rendered to.
