Hi,

I am trying to have a rectangle bar, around 10 pixels high and 100 wide. I want it to have sloping rectangle bars that look like they are moving, you know like if the barber shop sign was spinning.

Can I do this by tweening, or can it be done by scripting.

I want to use the effect for a background of a preloading bar. That's not important though, what I want to know is can it be done. I have tried to find an example but can't find anything anywhere,

Many thanks in advance.

PS

I have just found an example, the preloader to this site

It's looping background animation :) Here's the sample file:

Hi,
baby annie,
I have a question about your .fla file. What is that green bar and what does it do?
It seems to be some kind of edge. How create such edges?
Thanks.

It's the rulers(Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R) in flash. I use it to place object in exact position as i want.

baby annie,
I didn't get it. I use rulers too. You have a green bar or something like that in the right hand side of your movie. That's what I asked about.
