I figured out what my problem was. I had forgotten to check off transparency
in the Optimize dialogue box.

If you control click on the first frame of an animation, you'll be given 3
options: 1) automatic; 2) do not dispose; 3) restore to background. I'm not
sure what number 3 does and number 1 is merely the default but number 2
allows whatever appears in frame one to remain as background for
all the remaining frames in your animation. In order to make this option
work, it seems to me you must first make sure that transparency is checked
off in the Optimize dialogue box. It would also appear that you need to
chose the Do Not Dispose method before you tween your animation. And when
you do tween your animation you tween it from the 2nd frame onwards. You're
able to choose "Selected Frames" as your tween option in the tween dialogue
box. This is how I understand it to work but don't go by me, after all, I
came here looking for answers. Whatever I've figured out (right or wrong)
I've done merely through trial and error. Ciao.
