Hi all,

I am sure this question will be easily answered by most, but I can’t figure it as I am a flash beginner…

I have created a motion tween with text (animating each letters independently), with glow filter and 3D movement… I have a total of 12 letters = 12 layers. (it is a short animation, only 30 frames)

I now want to create a new scene with different text, but i want to repeat the exact same effects (tween, glow, 3D) and the exact same timeline…

My question is: is there a way to copy and paste the effects from my first animation to another animation?? The only difference is the letters… That would save me approximately 20 minutes… Plus I have 8 different text animations to create, all with the same effects… If it is not possible, do you know if there is another way to make it quicker??

Thanks a lot for your help…
