Guys,

I’ve just noticed that text in flash movies isnt copy-able from a browser. Normally, you can copy text from a website by just highlighting it and using Ctrl C. Surely this is a drawback of the Flash authoring environment if this cannot be achieved.

Can someone please tell me this can be done…
