Creating symbols for motion tweens
This tutorial shows you how to create symbols for use in adobe flash CS3 motion tweens. Extra instances of symbols used does not increase required memory resources.
- In the library tab select the “new symbol” icon. Then enter its name and select “graphic”.
- Draw the graphic on the stage. Notice it now appears in the symbol library tab (the current view is the symbol stage not the main stage)
- To align the symbol on the stage, use the align tools panel.
