I’m new to the whole flash thing and I’m learning on flash 8- In photoshop you can group layers so that the blending mode you use on a layer will only apply to the layers in that group… I’ve been searching all over, and maybe it’s right in front of me, but does flash have a way of isolating the selected blending mode to just the layers or objects of the user’s choice?
