animating a beating heart
Does anyone have an idea how to animate a graphic of a heart so it looks like it's beating?

There's a Pink Heart shape in the Library > Shapes section.
Whatever you use, image or shape, go into the Inspector > Properties > Transform
Right click on Scale and from the popup, Add Parameter Behavior > Oscillate
In the Behaviors tab, for the Oscillate behavior, click on Half Range, set the Speed to about 50 and the Amplitude to about 20-25 (or however you like it.) To get a "more even" scaling effect, change the Wave Shape to Triangle.

thanks for that. I really appreciate it. Most of what I've learn't so far I've gleaned from the Ripple Training series. Those guys are amazing!!!
