Dna Effect

Creating the DNA effect like in the FlashBox banner.

Create an object like (One Strand of DNA(Like a cotton bud)) Make it a Movie Clip.Give it an instance name of dna1

Now create a layer and name it actions. In the first keyframe give action:

for (i=2; i<30; i=i+1) 

{

duplicateMovieClip ("/dna1", "dna" add (i), i); 

setProperty ("/dna" add i, _rotation, getProperty("/dna" add (i-1), _rotation)+11); 

setProperty ("/dna" add i, _x, getProperty("/dna" add (i-1), _x)+10); 

} 

setProperty ("/dna1", _visible, "0");

In the next keyframe give action

for(i=2; i < 30; i = i+1)

{ setProperty ("/dna" add i, _rotation, getProperty("/dna" add i, _rotation) + 5); 

}

And finally give the third keyframe

gotoAndPlay (2);

And that’s it.
