infinite symbol increase/decrease

[seanmacintosh]

hi everyone,

I want to make a simple coming soon page where the text "coming soon" (a graphic symbol I suspect) occupies the entire stage and slowly shrinks infinitely to the point where it can no longer be read.

Anyone know the script for this pretty please:battery:

Thanks.

well make the coming soon thingy a movieclip and add some actions:

onClipEvent(enterFrame) {
_xscale -= 1;
_yscale -= 1;
}

the bigger the numbers the faster the shrinking...

It doesn't seem to work:(

Do I need to give the 'coming soon' graphic an instance?

Or do I need to add the 'coming soon' graphic to a button and then proceed?

Sorry to sound like an idiot, but, I'm really bad at this:x

Thanks.

COnvert it into a movie clip

Select the graphic, hit CTRL+B, hit F8, give it any name, select movieclip, set the registration point to center and apply Syko's code to it.

(why ctrl+b? :))

He only did that to turn the graphic into a shape and then make it a movie clip

Yeah, you also could've one it without, but I prefer like this =)
