Usually the tween steps are evenly spaced between keyframes, producing a linear animation from one keyframe to the next. By appending < and > symbols to the front of the object name, you can make objects speed up or slow down. So naming an object >Name means that it starts fast and slows. The opposite, <Name, would start slow and speed up.

You can even use these in combinations. So an object name <>Name would start slow, speed up and then slow down towards the end of the frame period. In traditional animator's terminology this is called 'easing', so you can ease in or ease out, and the command <> would be an ease in/out.

You can control the degree of acceleration or deceleration by using numbers from 0 to 9. So <2Name would be a very gentle acceleration, while <9Name would be extreme acceleration. Similar >2 in front of the name would give a slight deceleration. Using the name >Name (with no number) is the same as >5Name.

Example: there is an example file called Pendulum in the Flash Examples section of the Designs Gallery (click the Disc Designs button on the Designs Gallery). The pendulum group uses a combination of <> and the rotate command. Another example called "Zoom.xar" is also worth examining."

Thanks for the info on easing Simon, I will give this a go.

Egg, you can also export as avi too, I was attempting to use it for making a simple video intro so avi is ideal for that.
