RE: FLASH: Dana, The Poor Bumbling Baby Flasher

[Jaguarwoman]

Dear Knowledgable Experts,

	When imported into Flash from Swish, and saved as a movie, all the *parts*

of the movie appear in the library as symbols.  I can only *drag* the

instances onto the stage from there, not the actual movie clip.  I

understand that I need to export from SWish and import into Flash and save

as a movie.  I've got that part.  I'll reread my books about importing

movies clips into a movie and review all the confusing responses and try

some different things and get back to share what happens once I know myself.


	Of all the responses so far, the anonymous instruction to "look up

instances in your Flash manual" certainly seemed like the least helpful, but

it may be that none of you actually know and the real answer is that I just

need to do further research and perhaps go to the message board on the Swish

site of Flashlite.


	No doubt this is something very elementary but also a basic piece of

skill/information, because I know tons of people must be making little Swish

effects or other small movie clips and importing them, in spite of the fact

that "just drag it onto the stage" seems to be very misleading instruction.


	Thanks so far, I'll figure this out eventually and tell you the result.


	Dana

Echo,


You are right, and I think you did a much better job in explaining what I

think I was thinking.
