Alright, so I’m making my own Flash webseries and I ran into a problem.

Each character has a Walk Cycle, where I have them exported as a SWF.

I then created a new .FLA file to animate Episode 1.

The time came where a character needed to walk across the screen. So I imported the SWF file into the library.

Then I placed it to the frame it was needed on, and the SWF wouldn’t move. It was as if the character was frozen, but then I clicked on the character and then it would move, but not on the stage. Get what I’m saying?

I hope so 😕 Anyways, I was really hoping someone could tell me how to fix this problem. Do I need to export the Walk Cycle as a different type of file so it can work on the .FLA file? Please help!
