simple fade in, fade out...

[dottieandbelle]

BACKGROUND: I'm being asked by a client to fade in and out of some of her photographs, so I figutred Flash was the way to do it. I set up a timeline and used alpha channels set to 100% to 0% opacity with tweens to create the fade effect.

THE PROBLEM: Wherever I set a keyframe, the image seems to jump a little bit which makes the animation look terrible. I didn't physically move the image at all (all I did was tween opacity changes between keyframes), so does anyone know how to get rid of the little jumps?

Use 1% and 99% on your tweens' settings rather than 0% and 100%... That should eliminate your bitmap shifts.

Are the objects that you are fading in and out on separate layers in your Flash movie?
