ADOBE FIREWORKS CS3 53 Extending Guide Arguments name A string that specifies a name for the new animation symbol. numFrames An integer that specifies the number of frames through which the symbol animates. offsetDistPt A point that specifies the distance the animation will move in pixels (see "Point data type" on page 6). For example, passing ({x:100, y:25}) animates the symbol to the right 100 pixels and 25 pixels down. rotationAmount A floating-point value that specifies the degrees of rotation to be applied to the animation symbol. For example, passing a value of 720 specifies an animation that does two complete clockwise rotations. To rotate the animation counter-clockwise, pass a negative number. scaleAmount A positive floating-point value that specifies the amount of scaling to be applied to the animation symbol. For example, passing a value of 50 scales the symbol to 50% of its current size, and passing 200 scales it to twice its current size. To specify no scaling, pass 100. startOpacity and endOpacity Float values between 0 and 100 that specify the starting and ending opacity for the animation symbol. Returns Nothing.
