perfect allignment

[wacko]

hello,

I was woundering wether you can see the last frame of a mc when you are placing it on the scene ( for the perfect allignment)?

i'm not sure if I follow you :confused:

[wacko]

if you have a mc of 50 frames and the first frame is blank and the last frame of the mc is full of graphics... Then you go back to your scene the mc is placed in the library and now you have again a empty field in front of ya no graphics buttons whatsoever, then you want to place your mc wich is blank in the first frame on the scene but it has to be at a specific place. In the last frame of the mc there is a image that has to stand straight in the same way as something in the scene,
but if you place the Mc on the scene you cant see wheter it is in the right location because the image is in one of the last frames of the mc.

understand it better know?

Hello Wacko

I have run across the same thing.
Place a copy of your graphics in the first frame of your mc on a guide layer to aid in positioning.

Hope this helps.

that's almost a solution, dataOne ;)
objects in guide layers are not visible when you are working "in" the parent movieclip. I usually place the graphic in the first frame, combined with some code to hide it:
testgraph._visible=0;
