Macromedia Flash MX 2004

[JeffCoKid]

Hey I just got this program, and I am wondering how to make text and stuff move like an animation.  I am used to SWiSH and with that you just select the text you entered and say "Add Effect."  Is there a similar feature in Flash MX 2004?  I just cannot seem to find how to animate text and make it look really cool.

anyone?

Sorry Jeff, here are some google groups maybe they can help.

Are you looking to create a flashing gif image?  Or a flashing flash image?  Or a flashing shockwave image?  Or just some text flashing on and off?  I've got the Dreamweaver 2004 bible right here... So just be a little more specific and I can write out the instructions for you...

Here is what I am trying to do....

Make a flash introduction.

Something like this but NOT that extensive... but maybe so lol

I am currently working with a friend from another forum on this and am figuring it out rather quickly.

I am just working with some basics at the moment but its getting there.  It's a bit harder to use than other flash programs, but this keeps the files small and that is the main point.... SPEED.

I think we've had this talk before... HTML is ok with me... Flash just goes right over my head...  I can Photoshop and whatnot... But Flash is just too much for me to take on at this point...  Good luck on the flash though.

I am going to incorporate that into a new flash intro that I am going to be working on this week.
