hi
well i have another problem that im sure someone can help me with…
i have a flash movie… on top of that movie i want to have a white gradient that is transparent… so that the far side will be white, while the closer side will show the original movie
does any one know how to do this?
am i making sense?
It’s tricky. I lost track of it numerous times when I first started with Flash 5.0. I know a lot of people who’ve gone through their whole first year with Flash and never noticed that you could do that.
One thing you’ll learn quickly is to use the options tab to save the gradients that you make. As soon as you click on almost anything else in your movie, you’re likely to lose all the work you put into it.
keep in mind: alpha gradients with things moving behind them, are one of the biggest hogs of processor resources. If you find your animation running slow… it might be the problem.
Good luck to you, and happy flashing.
