I am currently using CS4 but taking a class that is using CS3. The problem is I am finding the "motion tween" is not creating a tween. What is the difference between the motion tween in CS3 and CS4.I can get the tween to work if I use the "classic tween" but the instructor is saying I must use the motion tween.

View 1 RepliesI've created a symbol and motion tween and given an instance name to the tween (lets call it mt1) on Layer 1, frame 1 - frame 10. On layer 2, frame 1 I create a button and stop and add the MouseEvent hander and function. Can I, from the function on layer 2, alter the end point of the motion tween on layer 1 via the function? I've tried, but unsuccessfully. Can't seem to access the tween properly. Or I am way off base. Here's the Actionscript frame 1, layer 2:

I have motion tween made on the stage that follows a custom path. It's a bus going along its route. instead of dragging out the frames to get it to be the right length ( i have multiple bus tweens running) is there a way to export the tween for actionscript or xml and adjust the total duration of the tween as one would a normal tween created in actionscript?
View 1 RepliesI will have three seperate pages for the motion tween, mask effect and shape tween... would you make the seperately, in a different scene, as a symbol or on the same scene with the website.

I am facing a problem in one of my animation with flash CS4 - I have nested a Shape Tween in a Motion tween to get more control over the easers and effects, unfortunately I am not able to view on the timeline of my Motion Tween the action of the Shape tween nested inside.
It only show the first shape of the Shape Tween during the entire Motion Tween and that is really a problem for me because I need to see the final frame result of that Shape tween to be able to position it in a precise way on my scene according to other instances.

I'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...
Is there a way to convert a classic tween to a motion tween?

View 1 Replieswhether it be text, symbol, a shape that I drew. None of it works. When I create the motion tween the line arrow in the timeline doesn't show up like it should. Here is the extremely simple animation i'm doing. The problem are for the bottom 9 layers starting from frame 80. I converted all of those to graphic symbols and I'm just trying to do a very simple alpha 0-100 while resizing the letters. I've also tested motion tween on very simple shapes and it never works. I just don't get it.

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to get the name of a motiontween in AS3. I have many tweens that call a generic function on MOTION_FINISH.
mainContent3X = new Tween(MainContent3, "x", Strong.easeOut, MainContent3.x, 1750, 1, true);
I need to get the number/name to know what to do. I've tried the following with no luck:
trace(event.currentTarget.toString());
trace(event.currentTarget.name);
Has anybody found a way to ease motion only between keyframes, not the whole animation? In classic u get separate easings.Generally, I want to convert old tween to new for more control, but it seems to be impossible.
View 4 RepliesI created some text, converted into a movie clip and I have three keyframes - 1,5,15.at 1 the text is as it is, at 5 i flip it horizontally, using the transform tool [q key] and at 15 i flip it horizontally it again, so it's normal again And I've put motion tween between both the places. Now when I preview the swf, from 1 to 5 the text animates as it is supposed to clockwise but from 5 to 15 it rotates clockwise
So it covers 1/2 revolution and then traces the same half back to become normal again.What must I do in order to make it swivel in clockwise sense only ?
Am trying to use the Tween class to scale and move a movieclip. Now the movieclip is within the loader, so I need the motion to be controlled by the percentage loaded. Now the code to move the movieclip to its final position is:
var xscaletween:Tween = new Tween(mstone, "_xscale", Regular.easeOut, mstone._xscale, 220, 6, true);
But this is the final location, I want to be able to change the properties of xscaletween, yscaletween, xmovetween and ymovetween as per percentage loaded.As in, within this final boundary limit of the tween, I want, for example, xscaletween, to scale only till 140 till percentage hits 50. Is this possible?? If not is there a workaround?Or do I have to use new tweens within each percentage limit?

I've watched the tutorial video's and searched the thread -
I want to delete part of a motion tween ... I only seem to be able to delete all of it.
I am having problems with the scripted Tween as the motion does not always complete and therefore does not let the rest of the script execute. Why these Tweens are not completing? I have a few of them throughout my program and they are all doing the same. I have to "Test Movie" several times before I get lucky and they complete and then the program runs fine. I have them all set to under 1.5 seconds as I read somewhere that there this might happen after this time. I am using IE 8 I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

I have a menu I'm building in Flash, the version with no animations can be seen at [URL]. I'm trying to make the block of text on the left tween in from the left. That block of text is a movie clip made up of three dynamic text boxes. Each text box reads in a variable from a text file. Ideally, what I want to do is have the tweening in the movie clip. However, when I add in a keyframe at any point in the movie clip, the dynamic text will display and animate up to that point and then disappear. Also, to mkae things more annoying, only the first of the three blocks will move at all. I can change the alpha or whatever I want to on that first one, but the others seem to be off limits. Could this be due to the fact that I set the second and third blocks to be just below the title block in action script? Does that interfere with tweening?
View 5 Repliesdo a simple fade in of text with a motion tween. I have entered text, converted to graphic symbol, set alpha channel on frame 1 to 0% and on frame 30 to 100%, the add motion tween. The text simply pops back in at frame 30 with no fade in between 0 and 30 at all. I have text set as static. Is this a Flash bug? I am working with Flash CS3. The same thing happened when I tried to do a zoom with a graphic and I had to break the two objects apart before I got any motion tween between them. This is not working with text, however.

View 5 RepliesI have a motion tweened layer that uses 445 frames. However the actual property change occurs from frames 1 - 360. After fr 360, there are no property changes. When I create a simple ease - ease out, set at 100. This ease shows that it takes 445. When I apply the ease to my properties (x and y specifically). The ease appears to be applied and the movement stops at fr 223. So between 223 and 360 there is no movement. The dash line of the ease in the properties motion editor goes diagonally to 223 then flattens out at the top - indicating no movement. How do I get the ease to apply to all 360 frames, and slowing down up to 360, rather than earlier than that?
View 1 RepliesI have added a fly in right to a symbol and I want to add a fly out right after a certain number of frames. I've been through a tutorial on Lynda of the new CS4 tweening, but what I cannot figure out is how to add the second motion to the new motion tween. When I try to select the last frame or add a new keyframe past the last frame, Flash asks me if I want to replace the existing tween. I can't figure out how, like in classic tweening, to add a fade out, e.g., to the existing item after so many frames.
View 5 RepliesI am using Flash CS4. I applied a Motion preset to one of the symbols on my stage. However, the Motion tween is applied to the symbol infinitely & it loops over to the beginning of the tween after completing it.However, I only want the tween to complete once & not loop over after it.
