Features
Copy and Paste Filter Effects
Flash filter effects can now be copied from
one symbol and applied to another, making
it easier to apply a consistent filter style to many
symbol instances.
Copy and Paste Motion Tweens
The new Copy Motion option in Flash lets you copy
motion tween attributes of an existing motion tween
and apply it to another movie clip. This provides a
way for designers to reduce repetitive workflows by
not having to reconstruct the tweens from scratch.
Additionally, the motion data is stored in XML
format and can be exported for use in future files.
