    Circumference is the “length” of the outside of the circle. To find out how long that line is do this simple equation

    Circumference = 3.14*Diameter

    So, to find the Circum. of the circle, find out the Diameter of the circle (from one side to the other). To do that;

    1. Make the circle.
    2. Click and hold on the “Eye dropper tool” to find the “measuring tool” inside the same group.
    3. Measure straight accross the circle at its farthest points.
    4. Plug that measurement into your equasion as your *Diameter* (e.g. C = 3.14*2.05 : C = 6.437)
    5. Now take that measurement of C (or 6.437) and divide that by the number of lines you need to find out how many inches (or in this case, tenths of an inch) you need.

    I hope this was what you were looking for.

    If you are in the “Animation” window, you should see your two frames in the animation window. At the very bottom of the snapshot should be an ammount of time with a down arrow next to it. Is “1.0 seconds” clicked on each frame?

    The way I have done anything with a transparent background would be to first make the graphic and make sure you can see the gray and white squares signifying that it is indeed background.

    After you see that, go to File > Save As.

    Name your file whatever you want and right below the File name box, click on the drop down list and chose “CompuServe GIF (*.GIF)”.

    Click “Save” then on the next window you can keep the Palette to Exact, Forced: Web (or whatever colors you need)and make sure “Transparency” is checked off. Matte can stay at none.

    Click “OK” and it is saved with a transparent background.

    I hope this was what you were looking for. It should be able to import into any program you need without a background.
