TUTORIAL 3: MORE ANIMATED BALLS

Animating with the Property Inspector

The next series of tutorials animate other sprite properties.

The diagram to the left shows the Property Inspector. The

Property Inspector allows you to set properties for various

elements of your movie, including sprites, cast members and

even the movie itself.

The sprite properties can also be viewed as an extension to

the Score window, called the Sprite Toolbar. The Sprite

Toolbar can be turned on and off by selecting View > Sprite

Toolbar (while the Score is selected).

In Director MX 2004, sprites can have unique names. Sprite

channels can also have their own unique name, independent

of the sprite name.

The Moody Ball - Animating sprite colour

1. Open tut1.dir.

2. Open the Property Inspector through Window > Property Inspector. The property tab for the movie

will most likely be displayed. Click on Sprite to display the sprite tab as shown in the diagram above.

3. Click on the keyframes in the Score, and change the Foreground colour

chip to different colours. I chose white, then pale pink, then a light bluish green, then yellow, and that

worked well - feel free to experiment with any colours you like.

Changing the foreground colour is Director's way of putting a coloured film over your sprite. The

resulting colour is a mixture of the member's original colour and the 'film'. For this reason, light colours

work better than dark colours for this effect.

Rewind and play the movie.
