I only ever use Shape Tweens for water and other fluids because of how uncontrollable they can become. I didn't even know Shape Hints were a thing. That's awesome! Thanks for making this video :)

I thought shape tweens are only for morphing objects. After I've watched this video, I wanted to add the shape hints into the shape tweens which feels like I was auto-inbetweening in Animate CC. Thank you so much, Alan Becker! :3
If anyone else here plays slither.io have you noticed that the intro thing ( when the words apear) kind of looks like a broken shape tween like when they go wrong or bits lump out
I use shape tweens a lot, despite the time it takes. If I’m not able to use them reliably at a point of time, I will smear the action. I also use them for lip sync.
I work with flash since more than 14 years, first time to know this feature, and it works with me even with Flash8, i am now able to do multiple shape tween within the same layer, which is very optimized and easier for me, thank you so much for sharing this :) ,.
Late comment, but the best ways to handle a shape tween is if the two shapes in question have similar amounts or even the same amount of points. It'll be easier for the program to know what goes where. Another thing you can do with shape tweens is colour/gradient changes. Because the shape itself isn't changing and only the colour is. Just don't do a shape tween of an object with two seperated colours.
I really like your video! Thanks for explaining! But why don't you draw the keyframes by hand seperately when it takes so long to get the shapetween right? Wouldn't be drawing the frames individually easier especially when it's a simple form like a stickfigure limb?
I think slow-mo shape tweens are better than slow-mo seperate pieces because: The problem with your ending of A VS MC Is that it looks like after each frame another is added. And slow it down you can see that cheesy effect. Unlike the shape tweens, with enough hints, can create some cool slow-mo that looks flawless. This is my opinion only, don't go modern simpleton on me.
2:02 there actually is a flash extension called keyframe caddy which makes it so you don't have to manually switch the frame a symbol's on. It shows all the frames in the symbol and you click on the frame you want to use. Ive found its very helpful. creative.adobe.com/addons/products/569#.VzDp79UrLnA
I NEVER knew about tween hints. That would've made life so much easier way back when. Do you have any thoughts on the re-branding of Flash software as Adobe Animate?

ikr
Nobody cares
If you're doing this on Flash 8, you need to use the property tab's Tween setting, click on it, and click "Shape".
-Leader
And the Shape hints?
As well as Flash 5 and the MX editions
Years ago i would never expect that the creator of animation vs animator would do the best flash tutorials in the internet. Fantastic.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
lel
I take advantage of the shape tweens glitch whenever I want a certain Polymorphing-like effect
I use it for growth shape shifting or something extending
or a joke about you being too lazy to animate a transformation lol
@@AymenZero yes like bfb lol
this channel has the most wholesome comment sections

Thanks Alan!
I love your tutorials
Thank you for being specific in what features I use for animate
I am now starting to become amazing at animating because off you ( my family is proud and my friends ) Thank you soooooooooo much

Thank you so much, this tutorial about shape tween is a time saver. It is indeed a powerfull tool.
"Shape Tweening is unreliable"
The average Object Show animator: 😁😁😁

object show animators LOVE using shape tweens
Thank you so much It really helps a lot

Alan, you're the best!
thank you for teaching me about shape tween. i can make angel wings now.
Thanks! This was very helpful.
You are amazing!
By the way you can shape tween in the Macromedia versions by making a motion tween, going to properties and changing the tween from motion to shape.

SHAPE TWEENS
*YAAAAY*
I really like your video! Thanks for explaining! But why don't you draw the keyframes by hand seperately when it takes so long to get the shapetween right? Wouldn't be drawing the frames individually easier especially when it's a simple form like a stickfigure limb?
+Black Nekoko When he uses the shape tween, he only needs to draw on something like 2 frames.
jithin presannan yes, I noticed that. But doesn't it take much longer to adjust the tween than just drawing it?
Black Nekoko
I think it depends upon other people's difficulties. But for the 'limb', I think frame by frame would be better.
wow 2016.i waited
I tried forever to make the shape tween in the intro and I did it with 8 hints :(
You really are awesome :D
PLEASE do Motion Tweens!
I think slow-mo shape tweens are better than slow-mo seperate pieces because:

tnx nice job
And my favorite part
PS video would be great and love your work bro ;)
Thank You
:)
Hey, bro! We are from Brazil and We love you
I didn't know about this :0
the only practical use of shape tween is goofy transformatione
Ohhh yeah, thats the way some people are making smooth mouth animations....
tq
OMG THX
In the future when u do photoshop tutorials
maybe give it a slightly modcharts so it will be more challenging
lisson if you wanna use flash,just use anime studio instead

I want to see all AVA with one layer at a time
there is something called "Motion Tween". Can you make a video about it?
2:02 there actually is a flash extension called keyframe caddy which makes it so you don't have to manually switch the frame a symbol's on. It shows all the frames in the symbol and you click on the frame you want to use. Ive found its very helpful.

What would you rather use macromedia or adobe
Can you do Motion tweens? Because then weve got a full circle.
I NEVER knew about tween hints. That would've made life so much easier way back when. Do you have any thoughts on the re-branding of Flash software as Adobe Animate?
Neat.
