You’ve learned about most of the basic animation techniques, but you may want to use Fireworks MX for more than just advertising banners. In this hour you’ll look at some more ways to control motion by working with objects on more than one frame using multi-frame editing and onion skins. With these tools you can select objects across multiple frames and change how an object moves throughout a sequence by previewing nearby frames. You’ll also learn how to export animations for use on the Web and in other applications.
