vector graphics - easy 2

[russland]

hi,
i managed to transform a jpg(bitmap) to a vector graphic - using Flash Help. Unfortunately i wasn't able to find how to move, tween. (frankly speaking, i intend to turn the vector graphic 180°, smoothly please. (doesn't mather which way). very mage like a page of a book.

do you guys know a tutorial to flash AND vector graphics?

thanks a lot

Flash is a vector application... if you simply want to rotate the image - change it to a symbol and then rotate using tweening

i know that. as i said. i managed to convert a bitmap to a vector graphic. however, i got now clue how i'm supposed to do fancy movements - NOT SIMPLY ROTATING!

i converted the graphic to a vector in order to do so! i'm not looking for pseudo 3D animation.

So like morphing?

So you're looking for true 3D animation?
Or what are these "fancy movements" you're talking about?

 

[russland]

YES, exactly. true 3D animation using vector graphics! any links or tutorials?

You can develop in LW3D and publich to a vector swf... might be a little expensive though

You could always do frame animation...

You can do wireframe 3D stuff if you know the right math - my portfolio site

http://www.wangbar,co.uk

has a 3D interface done that way but the code is pretty deep for a quick answer.

There's some stuff here that may help:
