Hello,
I need severe help with a template I am using that has action frames.
It is a photo album template that allows me to turn pages by clicking my mouse in the lower corner and dragging it across.
If I copy frame 5 and past it as frame 8 and I change the image on frame 8 it also changes the image in frame 5.
Here is the script below from the 9th frame:
//
// P i X E L W i T . C O M
//
stop();
//
//

// Thought to self:
// Try naming functions according to the events which preclude them
//
//
// A page flip involves 3 pieces of paper
// 2 bottom static pages (which lay flat at all times)
// and 1 active flipping page (which has 2 sides)
// Four pages total, 2 static/stationary and 2 flipping
// The flipping page can be on the left or right side
// The top image on the flipping page doesn’t actually move
//
//
//
//
