I have a few problems.

1. The eraser seems to be affecting all layers when I use it.

2. When I go to edit a symbol, it resets the layers to when you just open up flash.

Thanks for the help.

1. Check if the layers are locked, but otherwise, that's impossible..
2. Editing a symbol, meaning you went inside the symbol right? If yes, then that's normal because you can place frames in symboks

The layers aren't locked, but it's still happening. Would it be helpful if I recorded it or something?

Edit: in fact, a few other tools work on all of the layers at once, too.

Yeah actually, record the problem then let's see what's wrong, but what about your 2nd problem?

I think I just need to watch a few beginner tutorials that talk about symbols because I'm still pretty new to this on the technical side of things.

I'll probably won't be able to get a recording of the first problem until tomorrow.

That's your problem :/

It still wouldn't be his problem unless everything he has is in that one layer.
Or unless he selected everything while it was still unlocked

If he didn't mean are, then this is the whole problem

Root's Flash is being haunted by the spirit of a 10-year old unfinished test anim maker. The spectre will stop at nothing to fuck around with Root's Flash until he kills himself and joins him

Everywhere I fucking go.



Ok, I think I understand what I was doing wrong now- big user error on my part. Thanks for the help, guys!
