The 'Tween Object' tool provides functionality to quickly create a sequence of object placements over a range of Panels given a starting and finish state.
This tool gets its name from the animation term 'inbetweening' where object placement are created in between key animation frames. This term is oftern abreviatied to 'tweening' or 'to tween'.
The tool is very useful when initally blocking camera or character/prop geometry over multiple Panels.
To access the tool select a minimum of three consecuative Panels in the 'Panel Timeline' or 'Panel Thmbnail' palettes. These Panels include the first Panel with the staring object placement set and the last Panel with the finishing object placement set. The object to be 'tweened' needs to be present in all Panels. This action is not undoable.
When the desired Panels are selected the 'Tween Object' dialog window is avalible from the 'Stage->Tween Object...' main menu.
