editing a symbol in place
You may want to edit a symbol in context with the other objects on the Stage. You
can do so by double-clicking an instance on the Stage. You’ll enter symbol-editing
mode, but you’ll also be able to see the symbol’s surroundings. This editing mode is
called editing in place.
1 Using the Selection tool, double-click the robot movie clip instance on the Stage.
Flash dims all other objects on the Stage and takes you to symbol-editing mode.
Notice on the top horizontal bar that you are no longer in Scene 1 but are inside
the symbol called robot.
2 Double-click the drawing to edit it. You will need to double-click the drawing
groups several times to drill down to the individual shape that you want to edit.
