Re: FLASH: 3d vector art

Actually the angle of rotation on that one is either apporox. 8 or -8

degrees on each axis, as it takes 46 frames to rotate 360 degrees.


The easiest way to do it is to let it calculate the degrees of rotation

itself ...


Select the object, then under "Operations" select "Generate Sequence," then

you just follow the instructions in the dialog boxes (export as "Adobe

Illustrator" sequence, of course).


You'll and up with all the frames named with suffixes like 00001, 00002,

etc, so you can import them in one fell swoop.
