How To: Use Layers and Timelines
For Simple Animation

Creating a timeline

• Media to be animated must be placed in a layer.
• It is best to add the timeline animation as the last part of the page layout and design.

Importance of Page Structure

• As the page will be animated Dynamically its shape and size can change.
• It is most important that elements on the page are structured so that they are not adversely affected by resizing.
• Also consider the affect if displayed at different screen sizes.
• Constrain all page elements in a table or use layers.
• You do not have to animate all the layers.
