Writing effect in flash

Hey,

Is there any tutorials or can you tell me how to make something look as if its being written in flash?

Thanks.

Hand written?

Sort of, so you have text in flash and you do something to it and it looks as if its been written from nothing into the finished text…

Thats tough… you’ll have to use tweens.
I think there’s a tutorial about that on flashkit

I will search it, but if you find it before me plz post

I find this to be the best way

yeah frame by frame seems to be the best way to do it, or you can complicate things and try to use a mask or shape tweens with shape hints.

most productive way is frame by frame, you get what you want and theres no hassle with coding or other stuff.
