Help?

[Wrendy]

this is more than an idea than a question for all of you regular flash users, im making a movie and have hit a lot of problems along the way and have had to either find out myself what the different things do or often post in forums such as this, to make this easier im asking for anyone/everyone, who knows a thing or two about flash to post here any well know snags and problems that they had when they first started out and some useful tips, also some common problems, anything, it doesent matter i just want some stuff that will help me tru all the stages of flash, so remember anything from a little tip to a common problem or difficulty....

Thanx in advance to those who post

Well, when I was new here I had problem with..well everything, but I didnt do jackshit about it. I just came here and learnt stuff that other people said.

Like, somebody would ask a question, and then somebody would give an answer, instead of asking the same question I would just look at what answer the person gave and then use it.

I didnt know how to lip sync (BBS Search)
I didnt know how to make a button.(Emerald Tokyo helped me)
I didnt know how to put sound into a layer (Titbread helped me out with that)
and the rest of the problems I had I just searched for in the BBS search bar thing.

To make something faded
1)draw your object.
2)Highlet the object and convert it to a symbol>graphic
3)Right click on the new symbol and click properties
4)Click COLOR, and goto ALPHA then move the % to whatever
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------
Making buttons
1)Draw an object
2)Convert the object to a symbol>button (right click>convert to symbol)
3)Double click on your button
4)You should see 4 boxes (up,over,down,hit)
5)insert keyframes into each box
6)Double click anywhere in the stage (besides your object)
7)Right click on your button and open actions
(Depending on what you want your button to do Use these scripts)
Play:
on (release){
play();
}
Stop:
on (release){
stop();
}
Goto a certain frame and play:
on (release){
gotoAndPlay(frame);
}
