Flip Move


    When triggered for the first time, the Flip Move action moves a layer to a new specified position. When triggered for the second time, it moves the layer to a second specified position that can be the original starting location or a new location. For example, you can attach this action to a button to let the viewer flip an object into view that is initially hidden beyond the edge of the browser window and flip it back out of sight again.

    Make sure your page has a layer with content within it or visible properties before you create the action. Trigger the action with a user-triggered or timeline-triggered event. Choose Action > Multimedia > Flip Move. Choose the layer you want to move from the Layer pop-up menu. The text boxes adjacent to Position 1 represent the location (Left and Top values) the layer will be moved to when the action is first triggered. Either enter the left and top values in the text boxes, or move the layer to the desired location and click Get to retrieve its current Left and Top coordinates. Position 2 represents the location the layer will be moved to when the action is triggered a second time. Enter the values, or move the layer to the desired location and click Get.

    To make the layer slide to each location, select the Animation option, and enter a positive integer in the Ticks text box to specify the animation speed. One tick equals 1/60 of a second. The higher the number of ticks, the slower the movement. If Animation is not selected, the layer instantly appears in each specified location when the action is triggered.
