changing from one background to another

[Given]

New to Animate, thanks for the help.  I am trying to animate a simple character walking.  Behind him is the background of a hallway.  It moves right to left as the character walks.  Then the character enters the bedroom which is a new background.  It also moves from right to left, then stops.  He interacts with another character and the background dissolves to another scene (background #3).  I'm having trouble getting from one background to the next.  I used new layers for the 2nd background (bedroom) and the 3rd background (new scene).  The classic tween works on the first background but not #s 2 or 3.  Can't find a tutorial that seems to address this.  Again, thanks.

you're having trouble tweening the other backgrounds or something else?

I’m having trouble getting rid of Background #1 while moving into Background #2; same from #2 to #3.  Also having trouble tweening Backgrounds #2 and #3.  Haven’t added the characters yet.  Trying to get the backgrounds functional before anything else.  Thank you.

put the different backgrounds in different layers. add an empty keyframe where you want a background to end.

So sorry, I haven't had time to try the fix -- other projects receiving priority.  I'll let you know next week.  Thank you so much for the suggestion.

sounds good.

I have 3 backgrounds on 3 layers.  They are all converted to graphic symbols.  (The files originally in JPG.)  Each background runs 8 seconds, one after the other.  On the first frame, the background is in one position.  On the last frame, the background is in another position.  I have added classic tweens to each.  Only the first layer moves from right to left as I want it.  Layers 2 and 3 do not move.  I have tried locking the layer to no effect.  I have tried changing the layer order to no effect.  I don't know what else to do.  If there is a tutorial that explains this, please let me know.  Thank you.

Also, as you suggested, I have added an empty keyframe when the image ends after 8 seconds.

adding the empty keyframe was to help you change layers. apparently that now works?

tweening layers 2&3 is the same process as you used on the first layer.

Make sure your backgrounds are in graphic symbols or movie clips to tween them and thier all on different layers.

Will do.  Thanks so much.
