Basic Tweening Simple tweening of one object across the canvas. For Ulead GIF Animator 5.

Basic Tweening - Tweening by Transparency
Website wrote:Tweening is one of the handier functions of Ulead GIF Animator 5. "Tweening" is creating or updating the frames "in between" two main frames. You can tween one object to move it across your canvas, or tween the transparency of an object to make it appear to fade in and out. Or both at the same time...

In this tutorial, we will take an image and make it fade in and out. We will start with this image. Save the zip file to your hard drive, then unzip and extract the ghost picture to a folder of your choice.

When we're all done, we will have something like this image: Image

Ulead Cool3D Website with Tutorials, Models and more.

Thanks to rwernyei and also htchien for supplying this link.

This website contains a vast wealth of information concerning Ulead Cool3D
including a \"Webring\" - this is a method where members of an internet community with a common interest supply two more website links - next/previous. As the name implies, think of a circle where members of that community send you on to another similar website until eventually you find you're way back to the one currently being viewed.
