Changing the Path of the motion
The motion tween of the left car that you just
animated shows a colored line with dots indicating
the path of the motion. The path of the motion can
be edited easily so that the car travels in a curve, or
the path can be moved, scaled, or even rotated just
like any other object on the Stage.
To better demonstrate how you can edit the path of
the motion, open the sample file 04MotionPath.fla
in the 04Start folder. The file contains a single
Tween layer with a rocket ship moving from the
top left of the Stage to the bottom right.
moving the path of the motion
You will move the path of the motion so the relative movement of the rocket ship
remains the same but its starting and ending positions change.
1 Choose the Selection tool.
2 Click on the path of the motion to select it.
The path of the motion becomes highlighted when it is selected.
