Sigs
I got my signature all animated the way I want. It gets all screwed up when I save it as a .gif. Usually .swf's dont work. I know someone who saved their signature as a .gif and it worked. What do I have to do so the image doesnt look horrible when I save it as a .gif?

Flash 5 - Creating Movement Along Arc To Coordinates, Without Using Guides
I have a mc instance repeated 4 times for a navigation, each being a different link. I'm trying to get the mc, when clicked, to move along an arc to a specific coordinate, all depending on which of the 4 it happens to be.
When clicked, a variable is set to determine which navigation section the mc is, and in turn would tell through scripting what coordinates and arc to take. Is there a way to do this with scripting instead of creating 4 separate animations?
Thanks!

BEST Tutorial Guides To Follow When Learning To Make Flash Templates
I'm trying so hard to try and find either videos or books or anything on learning to make Flash Website templates, but I'm having trouble coming up with REALLY GOOD walk throughs as to learning to use and create interactive flash website templates.
Does anyone here know of the best resources to go to or what I could buy that would REALLY help my knowledge on the flash program. Who here didn't know anything about Flash, and then what did you learn to help you learn the program.
Again, I want to create flash website templates, but I don't know what guides or tutorials to follow when learning, so could someone please please direct me to the best place, thanks.

I would like to know if you can make more than one object or symbol follow the same guide. I would like each object to start in a different place on the guide. Is this possible? If so, is it also possible to attach objects to a closed path?
Thanks for you help, it is much appreciated!

Motion Guides?
Hi all,
I am trying to animate a "marching ants" effect along a path to illustrate a continuous stream of data, and I cant come up with the best way to do this.
Basically, I have a path that the "dotted line" has to move along and follow (kind of an "S" shape), but without animating a million little dots with motion tweens, I cant think of a good way to pull this off.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

Dynamic Guides, How?
I was wondering if its possible to create dynamic motion guides for an object to follow. Any insight would be great on this.
Basically I want to have an object say a ball, when told to move follow a motion guide that the user has drawn or created with various objects placed on the screen. Possibly allow the user to create the path using various path pieces then have the ball follow it.
Is this possible in flash? How could I pull this off?
I though of actionscripting and constant hit tests, but It would be nice to look at all my options.

Motion Guides...
Ok...ne good tutorials on motion guides?
As far as I know, you make an object, go up some frames, make motion tween, then hit motion guide, draw something in the layer above, then snap the object to the beginning in frame one, then to the end in last fram...sounded easy enough but my objects just go from point A to B without following the lines...suggestions?

Motion Guides--help
I have a photo. I want to emulate a camera move. So I have drawn a curved motion path. I have a keyframe and I set the registration point of the photo (a graphic symbol) on the starting point of the guide. Then I create a second keyframe 20 frames down the road and in that keyframe I drag the photo so that its registration point is on the ending point of the guide.
But when I motion tween, it just gives me a diagonal straight-line tween, completely ignoring the motion guide.
HELP please!!

Using Guides For 3d Effect?
I just recently visited the site of http//:www.levelvodka.com and found it to be really great. The creators of the site have in a very beautiful way managed to create a sort of 3D effect by using guide layers in FlashMX. Thats all i know. What I'm wondering is how it is done?? I mean how do you get seperate objects to move simultaniously but with different speeds. How is this possible??

Can someone please help me. Look at the image attached. I want to create that circular shape in Flash and have just the blue colour spinning around (the circular shapes stay stationary).

Using Motion Guides
hi all. i just wanted to know if there is a way of enabling a motion guide itself to be tweened to move from one part of the screen to another. what i am tryin to do is have my animated character 'walk' along a path that is defined by the path of the motion guide. on another layer i have the background also moving from right to left as the character walks. but when i try to tween the motion guide, it breaks the path of the walking character. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME?! Thanks.
p.s. i can send you my file and show you what i am trying to do if this helps.

Masks And Guides
Hi All
I am trying to get a magnifying glass that will have a mask layer, with text under it, but then move this magnifying glass allong a guide. Flash doesn't seem to let you nest a guide layer within a mask layer or vice versa. Does anyone know how this could be done? Or am I missing something very obvious??

Tweening Guides
Hey everyone
I am trying to figure out a way to have a tweened object, move along a tweened path.
Creating a tween object over a static path is what guides are normally used for; create a guide layer with a line, create your object, align the beginning and end and away you go.
However, i am trying to tween the object over a line that tweens while the object moves.
When applying the tween to the guide, the object will tween but only over the line that existed on the first frame of the guide.
A "work around" that i've found is to insert keyframes for each frame in the guide and then add the keyframes for the object. What this effectively does, is makes the first frame of the new guide tween the second frame of the original guide tween. The object tween then places itself at the beginning of this new guide. Yes, i know, this way is clunky and horrible. That's why i'm here
Aside form the method above, i've also tried movie clips (which of course dont work as guides).
I have also considered trying to use actionscript to resolve the issue. However, the object must be directional (an arrow moving along a path) and even if i figured out how to find the point at which to place the arrowhead, i would be lost on the angle of rotation.
Any help is most welcome

Sharing Guides.
Hi..
Is there a way I can share guides across ALL my movies no matter which move I am?
I know that if I set a guide on my main timeline I will be able to see it "across" another movie (when I edit in place) but what I would like to do is setup my guides in the a movie and then come out to the main timeline and then see it there (which is not happening).
For alignment purposes...
Thanks

Dynamic Guides?
Hi,
I have a pretty ambitious (for me) project that I'm working on. I'm trying to dynamically add a number of elements to a flash animation based on an XML file that I'm loading. After loading, I'd like to animate them traveling along a particular path. The path itself is dynamic and also based on the XML file that I'm loading. I'd like to use motion tweening and a guide layer, but so far I can't figure out how to do this with dynamic content.
Does anyone know if that's possible?
At the moment, it seems like the only option is to write code to move the objects manually.
Thanks!
Rudy

Motion Guides
I need some help on how to drag a movie clip on a motion guide and all I have is the following code:
pinnav_mc.onPress = function() {
this.startDrag(true);
};
pinnav_mc.onRelease = function() {
stopDrag();
}
I'm nearly there but it just drags all over the place.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Motion Guides
I am not sure if this is possible but I would like to draw a line in flash following a motion guide.
Most examples I have seen show a shape moving along the path using motion tween, I want to start drawing a say 5px wide line at the start and it to draw till the end.
Any help on this would be great.

Mayhem With Motion Guides
I've got a movie clip which I want to move in a circle. I add a motion guide, but it keeps getting on top of my movie clip, and if I try to get it under it transform the motion guide into a normal guide, making the movie clip go directly from point to point...
How can I hide the motion guide? And is it possible to use part of the background as a motion guide without having to copy it into a new layer (overlapping the background)?
Please help!

One Graphic Using Two Motion Guides
I am trying to build a working automobile engine in flash 5. I just started last night, so I haven't done a lot to it. I did run into a problem right away. I couldn't make the connecting rod do what I wanted.
For those who don't know what a connecting rod is, it is the piece that is connected to the crankshaft at the bottom, and the piston at the top. The circular motion at the bottom creates a straight up and down motion at the top.
I can get the circular motion at the bottom just fine. However, with the top portion, it doesn't follow a straight vertical line. It sort of bounces along. It isn't severe, however it is noticeable. Is there a way to use two motion guides for the one graphic? Any ideas other than a motion guide? The only other way is to created the motion, convert to all keyframes, fix individually. Oh, right now I am simply rotating the top of the connecting rod graphic to keep it on the vertical line. Perhaps this is the wrong way to do it, hence the "bouncing along". Any help, or just some tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason

Motion Guides With MX 2004
I've been unable to find a tutorial for MX 2004, so I've been trying to work on MX 2004 with a guide for Flash 5.
My problem is with motion guides - I know how to add a guide, and I think I'm creating it right. But then I cannot actually make it guide anything, and I certainly can't find any options.
How do I actually make an item follow the guide? Also, is it possible to use things like circles and lines as motion guides, or must it be done with the pencil tool only?

Drawable Motion Guides?
How? I'm trying to make a paintball-strat maker kind of thing, and I'm trying to make it so that the person can click on a guy, draw where he wants him to go, then click a button and the guy will follow that motion path. How? I've got the drawing part down, but how to i make it so that the path that was drawn is turned into a motion path that the person will follow once a button is pushed?
thanks
