I am having trouble with the Falling Snow tutorial. I would like to move the instance of the snow inside another graphic on the stage but no matter where I drag the snow instance or change the x any y postioniong of the snow instance on the property inspector, I still get the snow at the default position, the top left corner of the mc.

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Statiicviisiion

I believe Statiicviisiion has already searched and couldn’t find an answer that solved this particular dilemma, I know I have. He needs some constructive help from someone who knows a little more about Flash than he does. Unfortunately, for his sake, that is not me.

I looked at the post but I am still a little confused, okay maybe a lot confused. In the original script, I have the movieWidth = 60;  
movieHeight = 10; I want to keep it to that size to fit within another movie clip.

What would I set the xmin, xmax, ymin, and ymax to then?
