Hi all, I new to Flash and have been following the SAMS 24 hours book. Currently, I stuck at the Colours part. I can’t seem to get the Layer effect from Blend to work on symbol instances. Whenever I select Layer, the instances overlaying each other doesn’t manifest the effect and remains the same.

Help would be much appreciated 😏
