Some text effect questions

1

how do I make all these text effects like here: http://www.flashfreaks.nl/udzoneBanner.asp I mean the text effects like:

  • text moving from nowhere into the screen
  • text moving outside the screen
  • text going a little down/getting italic/ etc, and then moving out of the screen

These are problably simple tweens. I gotta believe there are tutorials on this site that would help. If not try flashkit.

the first two are very easy, you simply move the tweened text outside of the viewable area in flash…

the last one is probably just some slick tweening :wink:

I’ve got a problem: when I make a text comming from the bottom to the middle, at the same time, I want a text comming from the top to the middle. So I make the first text, make it tween, and it works perfectly. And then I insert a new layer, in the new layer, I see the text from the first layer. So I delete it, and suddenly everything from the first layer is also deleted:angry: How do I make 2 different thing happen at the same time?

When you make a new layer, it should be empty, chances are you probably didn’t lock the first layer so when you clicked it selected the text on the first layer and you thought it was on the second layer.

Try locking the first layer then make a new layer, see if that works.

no problem, I forget to lock layers sometimes too and it creates a mess. =)

haha

nothing a little ctrl-Z can’t do! :smiley:

yea, try undo if you mess up…although it only goes back like twenty steps (I think) it’ll save ya some trouble.
