What am I doing wrong? 2008-10-09 19:00:12 Reply

I'm working on my first Flash, and it contains a few spots where I have to switch out and change sprites. It involves a human figure made of sprites. I drew and made them all myself. I have one for the torso, and seperate ones for hands, upper and lower arms, and two for the head.

Now, when I try to do a motion tween, for some reason all of the sprites except the torso disappeared. They disappear when I try to set a new keyframe. I discovered the vanishing could be taken care of if I made the collection of sprites a symbol instead of having them all seperate. My problem is that I need to change the positions of some of the sprites within a tween. (The human is playing a guitar.) I can't change it without changing the symbol period.

If you're using a tween, you can only have one movieclip per frame.

So this is why Flash projects can take awhile...
