As for my tutorial… nope, no .fla for it yet. The tutorial is pretty straightforward though, you shouldn’t have any problems with it. I always get e-mails telling me how good it is. Oh yeah… and rip off my invention? It is a tutorial, and it is of a clock in flash… definitely not something I invented…LOL. ---

i figured out the part i need help on First go to Insert/New Symbol or press CTRL+F8, they both work. Create a new movie clip called “getTime”(without quotations). Open your library and drag an instance of getTime onto any location of the MAIN movie screen. Right click the getTime instance and click Actions. Apply these actions directly to the movie clip: ok so the open ur library thing… what the library… obviously im new… ---

OMG, the library is like the most important thing in Flash. It is what holds all the symbols you use in your movie. Hit CTRL+L to open it. Or go to Window/Library or something like that. Keep in my I wrote that tutorial the day after I started learning AS so some of it might be a bit… “ghetto”
