i tried editing a bunch of components, changed the color, some shapes etc., but when I tried to look at it from the parent movie, there were no changes reflected. tried exporting the movie, and there weren’t still. but I looked at the edit window again and they were there. so what’s up with that? should I edit the thingies in actionscript instead? (or can you really do that?)

btw some flash thingies for ya (hope I link em correctly). Enjoy!

I’m really not sure what’s up with that. It seems like that should work.
