Re: FLASH: alpha/bright & exchange symbols

[John Croteau]

Hi Valerie,

Probably about the same. The amount of screen involved in the transition

is much more important.


> Also, if I alter it in a paint program, is there an easy way to switch it with the newer version of the symbol (ie. exchange cast members in Director)?

Go to the Library > Select the Down Arrow > Update
