Setting Up the Main Movie Timeline and the Instance


In the main movie line add another two layers and name them, from bottom to top respectively, "Background", "Image", "Box Actions".

In the background layer add a background if you so desire. Here I have the gray box and the text seen at the base of the gray square.

In Frame 2 of the "Image" Layer, add the image you want uncovered when the boxes disappear. Here it is "SolarBurst Web Design." Add a "Stop" Action to the frame.

It is the Box Actions Layer where all the action scripting is done. Add an instance of the ChangingBox Movie to Frame 1 of that layer and place it more or less in the top left of your movie where you want the first box to appear. This will allow you to better create a beginning point (x,y) for the ChangingBox. Also, in the properties of the "ChangingBox" movie, name the instance "box".
