Copy and paste a motion tween

Copy and paste motion lets you copy a motion tween, and paste (or apply) the frames, tween, and symbol information to another object.

  1. Select the frames in the Timeline that contain the motion tween to copy. The frames you select must be on the same layer, however, they do not have to span a single motion tween. The selection can span a tween, empty frames, or two or more tweens.
  2. Select Edit > Timeline > Copy Motion.
  3. Select the symbol instance to receive the copied motion tween.
  4. Select Edit > Timeline > Paste Motion.

    The necessary frames, tween, and symbol information are inserted to match the original, copied tween.

    To copy a symbol’s motion tween to the Actions panel or use it in another project as ActionScript™, use the Copy Motion As ActionScript command.
