SHAPE TWEEN HOW TO

Select the Rectangle Tool. Select a fill color. Select no stroke (the red slashed square). Make a rectangle. Give the layer the name "He" by double clicking on the Layer 1. Click in frame 24 and insert a keyframe under the Insert Menu, Timeline or right click in the frame and select Insert Keyframe. Right now you have an animation that lasts a second where nothing happens be cause your object(He) is in the same position in keyframe one and keyframe 24. Click in frame 24 and move the object away. Now you have two different keyframes and when you play your animation the object jumps to the new position. Select a frame between the keyframes and right click selecting Create a Shape Tween. An arrow appears between the two keyframes and the object moves smoothly between the two key frames. The change is distributed incrementally between the 24 frames of the animation.
