Let’s move it with the new Motion Editor panel in Adobe Flash CS4. The new panel gives you an extended capabilities for animation in Flash as well as a full customized easing options using the multiple built-in easing presets and creating your own easing.
My recent article on the communitymx.com covers this new interesting feature in Adobe Flash CS4.

We have been using the classic motion tweening in Flash on a daily basis for years and years. We asked many times if the timeline could be enhanced to give us more capabilities, such as other animation programs like After Effects have.
Our comments were heard, the new Adobe Flash CS4 comes with two essential changes in the timeline. The first change is the new motion tweening, which we discussed in a previous article, Motion Tweening in Flash CS4 – Think Again!.
The second change, and the one that we will cover in this article, is the Motion Editor panel. This panel extends your capabilities by giving individual graphs for each changed property in the animation. Further more, it gives very deep control to your animation easing, which helps in creating realistic animation using both custom and built-in easing presets.
