Using Behaviors
14
Drag the left shaded ramp of the Fade In/Fade Out control in the Dashboard to the
right to lengthen the fade in effect.
15
Drag the right shaded ramp all the way to the right, until it’s a non-shaded, vertical
edge. This eliminates the fade out part of the effect, so that the center text object
remains onscreen for the remainder of its duration. The animation is now complete!
Example 2: Creating a Clock Animation
In this example, two parameter behaviors are used to create an animated clock. By
arranging the objects and their anchor points properly, each part’s motion can be
created quickly and easily using the Rate and Oscillate behaviors.
To create a clock animation:
1
Place the graphics objects constituting the hands, face, and pendulum into the Canvas,
arranging them to create the clock. The hands are on top, the face in the middle, and
the pendulum should be in the back.
