As I've been working on a project, the .fla has gotten slower and slower for loading, saving, and working with. It's only 13MB, so I don't know why it's so slow. But it's pretty bad; I opened up a movieclip and clicked on the first frame, opened the actions panel and typed CTRL+V to paste one line of code inside, and the whole program locked up and I had to end the process from the task manager.
I'm using Flash 8. The project has a large graphics library and loads a few external ActionScript Classes. It has no trouble compiling to a .swf file, but loading, saving, and even pasting a line of code into a frame freezes everything up sometimes.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
