ok in my movie i have two lines of text a line and then hte same line underneath flipped upside down and backwards like a reflection is there a way to make my "reflection" wave/ripple appearing like it is reflecting off of water
And I have Sucessfully recreated this effect in KoolMoves. I'll see if I can't dig up the .FUN
Anyhow Inside of KoolMoves you Import a JPG. Then Create 4 MC's. In Each MC you will have teh JPG on the Lowest Layer and above it a Letter O converted to a shape and a MASK or Roundish Shape that is masked. From There its simply a mater of timing the Expansion of Your O's and the fade ouit of the Image coincide and Synch with each other.
OK This Tut. Is Greast but masking is a whole new concept to me so if somone could help me i would be eternally greatful aslo i need this effect juts on one line of text is this possible??????
One line... Only if many lines could be written on one.
[In other words not likely.]
I have written a tut last night. Involves image splices that are animated by the animator.
No action script or masking needed.
[I do reccomend using masking as my method is simple, but tedious.]
Expect to have the tutorial uploaded tonite.

Well:Import the background image, copy and paste it, create an O, select the copied picture and the O and convert them to a movieclip. Open the movieclip, select the O. select properties of shapes and text and make the O a mask, depth 1. Add the appropriate number of frames and make the O move the way you want it. Close the movieclip and do exactly the same as above until you have a least 4 different but alike movieclips. Adjust the different timelines of your movieclip and, when needed, the transparency of the pictures in the movieclips. Just play with them until you have a satisfying result.
The "problem" with copied movieclips is that , when you change one of them, every copy changes the same way . They 're clones and stay clones.
For Bob:
It would be very handy when there would be a possibilty to adjust if a copied movieclip will go on as a clone or that it would start its own live, like shapes, who are a symbol or not.
Cheers

This has actually been a nusiance for quite a while.I believe Bob said he was working on that. I know sent him an email about that.
The AS method works too.. Either way is acceptable. If you AS it you can cut down on file size some- buit that's true in almost everycase.
