Create scale animation in Photoshop?

October 15, 2009 5:48 PM

I am trying to create an animated button in Photoshop CS4 which includes a logo scaling down and moving a bit across the animation. I've created two frames that I'll tween between, but no matter what I do, when I scale the logo it changes in both frames. I've turned on and off the three unify buttons and the propagate frame 1 checkbox, and I've scaled using Transform and with the move tool options, every time it scales in both frames. Moving it from one position to another works just fine. Can anyone help?

Ah, the wonders of animating in Photoshop. Have you tried duplicating the logo so that the initial size and the scaled down size are on two different layers, created frames from those and tweened from there?

I have, but all I get is the starting version fading out and the ending version fading in.
