| Introduction |
 |
| The
vast majority of the "Standard" (or
Flash 3) effects in Wild FX and Wild FX Pro will
import directly into Macromedia Flash. However,
with certain effects that contain alpha sequences,
or if you wish to export effects as Flash 6 they
must be broken up in order to have the letters
display correctly. This mini tutorial gives simple
instructions for doing that. |

In
the Library panel, double click Symbol 2 to Edit
it (if
you already have another symbol with this name,
then it might be named
something else, but it will be in the form Symbol
X, where X is a number).
You should see a letter within the symbol. |
