From: dzedward on 2 Aug 2007 16:04 change the text color and background color and it won't look as jittery.. red text on black background, looks smoother.. not saying you have to use those color combos, just saying try some out. I'll get back to you with the code, I'm going to lunch.

From: steeve on 2 Aug 2007 17:24 very cool!! I see where you put: //insert new Tween here for another MC How could I time-seperate the headlines? on the timeline? BTW the end action still repeats -- in this case the zoom out from 125-0 2 sec pause > zoom/fade to zero > 2 sec pause > zoom/fade to zero wonderful stuff thanks- Steven
From: steeve on 2 Aug 2007 17:31 I think a 1 sec fade/zoom in looks best --look less jittery. ..so I changed that in the code and I changed the wait time to 4 sec. Let me ask-- is there another motion, say a genle move to the left or right that I can apply to the "wait time" so it doesnt look so static? would a move like that look less jittery? In my experience it would Steven

"2 sec pause > zoom/fade to zero > 2 sec pause > zoom/fade to zero" this makes no sense, it hasn't happened to me, and there is nothing telling it to do that, so it has to be on your end. "Let me ask-- is there another motion, say a genle move to the left or right" tween the _x or _y properties. |
