Hi there,

I was wondering if there’s a way to increase the size of the Pasteboard in Flash CS4?

I have a long strip of images in a movie clip which slide across depending on which button the user mouseOvers, and now I need to edit images which I positioned beyond the accessible area of the pasteboard.

The pasteboard currently extends horizontally to 3400 pixels and I’m worried this may be the limit…

Thanks for any tips!
