Fireworks MX 2004 Making GIF animation (3)

3, the use of "onion skin" function

The Onion skins feature makes it easy to view the contents of frames before and after the currently selected frame in animation. So as to bring convenience to the production of animation.

Click the small arrow button in the lower left corner of the "frame" panel to eject the "onion peel" feature option, as shown in Figure 6-10 and effect figure 6-11.

Multi-frame editing is an object that allows you to edit multiple frames at the same time, eliminating the hassle of switching back and forth between multiple frames.

4, the use of layers

In the process of drawing objects or graphs in fireworks, it is more time to use the Layers panel to select and Schedule objects. In the animation production, the level of the use of the Board is equally important.
