There's all the actions that define that animation for our star instance and now let's preview this in the browser. Let's open up the actions window and let's paste the actions into the window. Let's go ahead and add a new layer, call it actions, enter the key frame then, I'm going to select it so I can paste all of the ActionScript that I saved previously into that key frame. So the ActionScript is now on the clipboard. Let's open up the properties inspector and we need to make sure that, that instance name is spelled exactly the same as my prompt in the other document, so there it is. click OK, now I got another document all ready with a symbol on the stage.

The ActionScript will call on this instance name in another document and apply all that animation to it. It asks for an instance name to use in the script, I'll enter star. Let's go ahead and copy my original animation here, I'm going to select that layer, and then from the main menu choose edit, timeline, copy motion as ActionScript 3.0, Flash will copy all of that motion converts it into ActionScript 3.0. You can also instantly convert timeline animations into ActionScript 3.0, these animations can then be added and edited and leveraged into other Flash projects and Flash files. Position, scale, rotation and skew, color filters and blend mode. Now if you only want to copy certain attributes of the motion tween you can choose edit, timeline, paste motion special that'll bring up the paste motion special dialog where you can pick and choose any of these options to copy over. Notice that all three of them are animating in unison there. Paste motion and the new animation is also applied to the oval symbol. So, let's drop symbol number two, onto my new layer and because I've already got the motion copied to the clipboard I can just simply choose timeline. Now I can also do this with other symbols in the library, doesn't have to be the same symbol but it does have to be a symbol, it can't animate a graphic. Then I'll select that rectangle there, the new one and choose from the main menu, edit, timeline, paste motion, notice that the size immediately changes and the animation is duplicated in the new object. So I'm gonna create another layer into the blank key frame there I'm gonna drop another symbol of the rectangle, notice that the second rectangle is larger then the first one. Now I can only copy the motion within one layer, I can't copy motions that transcend multiple layers. I can select this entire layer here and copy that animation by choosing edit, timeline, copy, motion. I have here in this open file a simple animation of a rectangle spinning and changing size. When pasting the motion tween to another object you can also choose to paste all the properties associated with the motion tween or choose specific properties to apply to the other object. You can now copy and paste motion to let you copy a motion tween and paste or apply the tween to frames, tweens, symbol information and all the rest of it to another object. One of my favorite new features is copy and paste motion. You can also customize the workspaces to improve workflow and maximize stage space. You can now enjoy a new streamlined interface that emphasis consistency with the other Adobe Creative Suite 3 applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver and Fireworks CS3. Let me spend some time then In this movie, reviewing some of the more important of these new features in Flash CS3 Professional starting with the Adobe interface. For example under the advanced debugger you can test content with a powerful new ActionScript debugger that offers greater flexibility and user feedback as well as consistency with Adobe Flexbuilder 2 debugging.
