Re: FLASH: actionscript help

[Olga]

Rather than tweening, you can set up a frame loop---


frame 1:

Set Variable: "x" = 100


frame 2:

If (x > 0)

      Set Variable: "x" = x-10

      Set Property ("graphic", Alpha) = x

End If


frame 3:

Go to and Play (_currentframe-1)


I also tried it with an action loop but I think flash processes the

information too quickly to see the fade taking place.
