So I want to save a sword I made for my RHG, but I have to remake it between every animation. Does anyone here know how I can save a symbol to insert into another animation whenever I need it?

You cant save the symbol exactly, But you can just save the sword in an .fla file of its own and whenever you need it just open the file and copy the symbol, then paste it on your current animation.

you can save the symbol and you can save the sword as a symbol
select everything
right click, and convert to symbol: http://prntscr.com/85n59n
after that, it will save the symbol to the library: http://prntscr.com/85n4c6
save the fla. file. After that you can copy that sword or move it to any frame you like with out having to re-draw it
