Creating symbols for motion tweens

August 20th 2009 in Flash

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.

  1. In the library tab select the “new symbol” icon. Then enter its name and select “graphic”.
  2. 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)
  3. To align the symbol on the stage, use the align tools panel.

Another method is to draw the image on the stage and then using your selection tool right click on it and select “convert to symbol”.
