Inconsistent animation

[cursor]

I just started toying with animation.

I've created one that does letter rearranging. Load the attached XAR file, preview it, an notice how both the 'i' and the 'c' misbehave (they don't slide, but rather JUMP). Why?

Thanks.

Hi

you don't appear to have named them

By George, you're right! Thanks!

There are 34 frames in this animation.
I don't imagine that there is any way to somehow name them "globally," across all frames ... is there?

you may need to remake the parts of the animation that involve the c and the i after giving them names, but without names they will not tween

I ended up simply naming the c and i at the beginning and ending frames of their movement. Works great. Thanks!

glad to help
