Hi everyone,
I have not made many flash animations so I made a rough compass drawing with pointer and I want to know how do you line up the pointer or fix its centre to rotate without looking jerky.

My approach was to draw a large circle and group my graphic with the circle.
Then the center point would be at the center of the combined graphic. Once things were rotated, I ungrouped and removed the circle.

Very similar to Rich, but with less steps. Create your needle and a slightly larger circle. Set the circles transparency to 100%. Select both the circle and the pointer / Group / make it a named object. Copy Frame, rotate 90 degrees. Repeat three more times. You don't need to bother with the rotate+ in the name this way either.
I attach a xar file which is smooth. If you look at the group that makes up "needle" you will see it has a yellow filled circle if you remove the transparency.

"Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.
Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.
