Is this possible?! I have tried converting and all sorts but I cant get some text to morph! I have seen it done on another site. (www.pjmp.co.uk) so i know it can be done. I justw ant words to morph between each other. i.e hello --->how are you-->goodbye etc etc.

Any tips?! :D

You have to BreakApart the text ( twice in MX ) to be able to treat it as a fill. And you also need to use Shape Tween instead of Motion tween.
Also to give Hints (Modify>Shape>Add Hint ) to get the morph as smooth as possible). Doing nice morphs between words can be a timeconsuming effort, its a lot easier with single letters or simple shapes.

Have you checked the tutorial section or searched google for tutorials?

where does the text morph on the site you posted? morphing text, and making it look good is a time consuming job and to get it right u will need lots of shape hints, and maybe even need to do it letter by letter but im not sure that is waht you are on about after looking at the site.
