I'm trying to animate inside the classic tween I made.....

So I made a classic tween of two hands going left and right, adding some ease-in and ease-outs to it....

I clicked twice to go inside the tween, and animated the two hands typing on a keyboard.... They're at least five key frames drawings inside the tween, each one in twos....

But when I go outside the tween to test and see if all the drawing frames are there, it only shows two drawing frames, even though I made at least three more drawings inside the tween....

Am I doing something wrong? Can someone help me?..... (:(

I have a picture of the drawing frames inside the tween....

Click/drag to select all the keyframes that have a classic tween applied to them. In properties panel, find the SYNC check box and click it. This feature ensures the nested frames inside your Graphic symbol (typing animation) will be in sync with the parent timeline's frames. The problem is with the insert of keyframes after a classic tween is made, the nested animations start on frame 1.

a classic tween has 2 keyframes.  you edited one of them (after the tween was created) causing a problem.

 

you should have edited the symbol first. then tween it.

What do you mean? I wanted to make a classic tween with the two hands moving from left to right, then I made a few more drawings inside the classic tween....

If I've had edited the symbol first, making the drawings before tweening 'em, that would just be waaayy too hard! Isn't there an easier way?

did you use a graphic symbol (and not a movieclip)?
