The skyPod logo must be converted from a graphic symbol to a movie clip symbol in order for the Fade and Focus preset to be applied. Select the first keyframe of the Logo layer.

The step is incorrect as printed, as there is no keyframe in frame 20 of the lesson file. It should read as follows: Scroll horizontally until you reach frame 20. Right-click and choose Add Keyframe from the context menu to insert a keyframe. Press the Shift key to keep the keyframe from moving left or right, and click and drag the keyframe down to the baseline (0.0) of the Rotation Z row. Then, again holding the Shift key, click and drag it to the right to frame 30. The z rotation now begins at frame 30.

Note: You may need to ungroup the box and the arrow to change their individual properties. Select the graphics and ungroup by choosing Modify > Ungroup. Add a keyframe to the Over state to design a unique look for your button when the mouse pointer rolls over it.
