In this tutorial we will teach you how to make a raindrop effect in Flash.
Open a new Flash Movie.
Choose Insert/New Symbol from the drop down and select Movie Clip for symbol 1
On layer 1 of the movie clip, draw a circle, try using a contrasting color for the background, (I chose red) and white on the stroke and transparent on the fill.
On frame 20 hit the F5 key to extend the timeline.
This will happen:
Now, add a new layer and on frame one draw a smaller circle inside the circle on the first layer.
Select layer 20 and use Modify/ Transform/ Scale to enlarge the circle.
Click on the timeline between the two frames and put a shape tween on the frames, choosing '100' Easing Out and Distributive on the Blend at the Properties Menu.
Your finished movie clip should look like this:
