MCTE Show/Hide + Layers July 25, 2008 10:56AM | Registered: 15 years ago Posts: 7 |
Since I'm still a bit confused with all the flashEff/txEff/AS2/AS3 thing, I'm just asking if I'm doing this right.
I need to do a AS2 Banner (Flash8 req.), so I have to ditch those cool AS3 texteffects and use flashEff.
I create some text, covert to movieclip, drag the green MCTE square over it, set a transition effect (MCTEPatternClouds, for example), and it works.
Now I want to remove the text, so I finally figured out I need to do the "hide" sequence on a new layer.
Is this correct?
(Just for the record, I do all this with the timeline and drag/drop. I guess scripting would be 200 times faster/easier, but I lack the skillz.)
EDIT: I also figured out, the last frame of the "show" instance and the first frame of the "hide" sequence must not overlap. Is this the "secret"?
