Use motion paths
Last updated 6/15/2014
Summary
In this chapter, we've examined how to create motion in Adobe Edge Animate by making use of the Timeline, Playhead,
Pin, and Properties panel. Those who are familiar with Flash Professional or After Effects should recognize just how
familiar many of these concepts are, and possibly how refined and evolved these concepts have become as implemented
in the Edge Animate application interface. It is quite easy to both create and edit animation within an Edge Animate
composition!
