Hi

I’m a beginner in Flash and I have some basic questions that I hope some of you can help me with?

1. Which is best to use? A movie clip symbol or a graphic symbol? I read that graphic symbols have some restrictions … what are those restrictions?

2. I’ve notice that you can’t tween certain objects. Like grouped things. What’s the way of solving this?

Many thanks in antcipation
