Re: FLASH: wide field not shown in symbol stage

[Robert Bleeker]

Hi Michael,


The best thing is probably to copy/paste the panorama into a temp new movie,

work on it and copy/paste it back into the symbol.

Other option would be to scale the panorama inside the symbol when you have

to work on it.


Where is Flash 5? :-(
