Instance

Every time you place an Symbol on your Stage you are creating a new Instance of that Symbol. A single Symbol can have as many Instances as you like. The Symbol is the 'Template' for the Instance. The Instance will have all the properties of that Symbol although an individual Instance can have some properties altered.

Properties that you can change include:

• Size
• Position
• Rotation
• Tint (overall colour)
• Alpha (transparency)

Instances of the same Symbol on the Stage.

The original Symbol in the Library.

Note: If you edit the original Symbol from the Library you will change all Instances of the Symbol!
