Hi, I've been working for several hours on what seems like it should be a very straightforward operation. I'm trying to change the position of an object and at the same time change the alpha quality of it (it has a gradient fill). I have two objects which I believe have the same actions applied, however the behave differently. The first one falls away and fades out, at the same time the gradient shifts and seems to glint across it. This is how the other one should be. The other object however, simply fades and as it changes position the shape goes though all kinds of crazy morphing before it arrives at its designated position. Both objects have shape tweens and are not symbols. Why do they behave differently? Please help! (ps. in both cases I have copied and pasted the object in the first frame into the last frame and have not altered the objects except by rotating them and moving them downward).

:fear2:

First, check to see if they are on the same layer. If they are, this could be causing the problem; you should have a seperate layer for each tween.
If thats not the problem, then you'll have to post a swf or something so I can actually SEE the problem.

Read a tutorial on the subject jeez it's not F*%ing rocket science, which i heard isn't all that hard either.

Rocket science. What a bunch o' hogwash.

yea agree wid ya! hehehehe! mwahahahaha!! :smokeing1

thanks to those who helped... and to the other clowns, may you get a patch in the afterlife.

When you have them in the same layers it behaves that way, and one objects tweening joins the other one, as if it were to go to what object 2 is like which wont really work for normal tweening.

But you can do that with Shape Tweening which you could choose from the list of tweening, so that object one morphs into object 2.
