Frame to frame ??

[Just-here-to-watch]

I'm new to flash , but I've been visiting a lot of tutorials and stuff.
There's just one thing I can't figure out.

How can i make proper frame by frame animation ?? (I have flash 8)

I found a tutorial on NG , but when i tried , I didn't get animation , but just 10 pictures overlapping eachother.

Can I somehow do something about this ? And if so , where ?

I'm really wondering!

Thanks for the help :D

well, i guess it would be easier to do frame by frame animation if you used onion skin.
Onion skin lets you see your current frame, and lets you see a slightly faded picture of what your past frames look like, it makes frame by frame a lot easier. You can find the onion skin right under your frames. it's a smallish button.

Yeah I saw it , but I have no idea how I have to use it. But I'll try. Thanks for the info !

you make a blank frame (F7) draw in it put on onion skin and to { } appear above the frames move them to adjust which frames you want to see (you can also multi edit frames).
when doing frame by i find it best to animated in a 1-5-10 and then fill in 1-3-5-7-10 and then 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10... well like that, not just going 1-2-3-4-5 in order.
if you need more info, post.

Yeah I've been reading that... about the 1-5-10 bit then do the rest.

Why exactly do you do that?
