    It would be a lot easier (as you dont have to think backwardly) to leave the text as it is, create a Mask layer and then do the effect by drawing over the text with the paintbrush/pencil tool so only the drawn section will be revealed

    What if I have the color background? How do I avoid when it also erase my background.
    Thank you

    @GrandDewalt , you could cheat, by downloadin a quick program that records your screen and what your doing. then play the animation? maybe try that if ur just trying to put them on youtube.

    I don’t suppose anyone knows how I can export my flash animations and not end up with this 4GB file. It is ridiculous and just shattered my dreams of making an anime with Flash, my animation only goes on for 1 minute and 51 secs, and it got that big after exporting as AVI, and I dont have the option of exporting as WMV, SWF files don’t work either, how am I going to get this stuff on Youtube if the file is too big, or wrong format and won’t convert properly?

    @GrandDewalt if you convert it into a movieclip you can then apply the motion tween

    Your a GENIUS!!! I was trying to figure out how to make a tree look like it was growing and I tried almost everything. This technique will work perfectly for my idea! I could kiss you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

    I wish you much success.
