Show exact duration of animation
January 11, 2010 05:18PM
Hi
I'm realtively new user with this Eff, and so far it looks promising. However, I've found an issue that bugs me. How to calculate the total duration of an animation. On a Show/Hide mc, I have to add up tweenDuration (and if any, delay) manually, then find my calculator and figure out how many frames the whole thing requires to play properly. That's a lot of clicking back and forth.
I hope I'm just being slow and have missed the place on the Flash eff panel where I can easily see the total time it takes, and where I can input fps and get the # of frames needed. Or something to that effect.

espen1,

I am really sorry but the only way to find how many frames needs to be added to the timeline for a certain flasheff animation is by adding the effect's showDelay+showtweenDuration+hideDelay+hideTweenDuration and multiply them with the frame rate of the fla file.
Unfortunately we were not able to calculate that directly in the FlasHEff2 Panel since is technically impossible.
