RE: FLASH: Fade to transparent gradient - Flash 5?

[Wayne Kaminsky]

Try the following:

1 - open up your mixer palette

2- set your colour to white (or anything else) and set the alpha to 0%

3 - apply this new colour to a block on the page

4 - select your dropper tool from the menu

5 - click on the new block and you will see the transparent colour has been

added to your swatches library


hope that helps

Subject: FLASH: Fade to transparent gradient - Flash 5?



I've looked at the manual, but can't find on the palettes a quick way to

create a fade to transparent gradient.  The book says you can't add a

transparent gradient fill to an existing object, but only to a new one.

But even in creating initial objects, I'm having trouble finding a

"none"  color on the swatches/gradient creating palette.


What's the easiest method of setting up these gradients?

Jeff
