Hello

I have made a symbol from some text (graphic) and I’ve tweened the text so it fades in quickly, then slowly moves up and fades away.

Now, I want the exact same tweening on another (different) piece of text, but of course with the exact same motion (e.g. movement + alpha)

I know how to copy and paste frames, but because the keyframes are assigned to the particular symbol, I seem to be unable to replicate the movements and alpha.

Is there a quick way of doing this?

Thank you.
