Hello,

I am very new to Flash. I have done a few of the tutorials and I have found them to be very helpful.

I’m curious about what is going on step vi. in the tutorial:  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/simple\_animation4.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/simple_animation4.htm)

In the tutorial, I am supposed to select the movie clip, and in the Properties Panel, click  
the Filters tab. Unfortuantely I don’t see any filters tab, and try as I might, I’m unable to find one.

I am using Flash MX, not Flash 8. I don’t know if this makes the difference.

Thanks,

Ebudi
