Tweening Question
I'm using Unlead GIF Animator v5.05.

I have five images set up, where they tween exactly the speed and style I want. The problem is as the program tweens through the last image, it sort of jumps back to the first one then continues the way I want. I don't like the quick jump, as it deters from the smooth rhythm.

I tried to set it to tween from the last frame, into the first one, but it it will not allow me to. The "value " has to be greater. (I can't go from a higher frame number to a lower frame number)

Is there some trick, or something I can do so it continuously tweens smoothly through all images?

TIA

I'm going to experiment with taking the tween files from the first frame, reverse them and add them to the end of the last frame and see if that does it. I'm going to leave this up in case there's something I'm missing.

Usually you just add a copy of either the first image to the end or the end image to the beginning and tween from the last image to the first at the end or from the last to the first at the beginning. If there aren't a lot of tween images you may notice the ever so slight hesitation as it loops across two identical frames with this method but otherwise it works very well.

I never made anything by using the tween.
But you can make a copy of the last from and move it to the first frame spot on the "frame panel" The jumping of the image may be that you moved the image. Right on the image in the "object panel" on the right and click object properties. Now click the "position and size" tab. Now move the image around to where it needs to be. You can lock it here too or in the "object panel" click the blank spot right of the eye in the "object panel" and it will lock the image so it can not be moved.
I know when I have made something and have some that plays right when I edit it to add effects and see a frame jump it is because it was moved and I did not know I moved the frame. If it is a copy of another frame then look at that other frame "position and size" to get the number to move it back because it should be the same.
