    alt drag the one you want to duplicate.
    right click the new instance and select 'Duplicate Symbol'.
    set the new name, this should create a new symbol in the library.

    • Yeh, but pain in butt when u have nested child symbols on layers, many of them. My stuff will do it all automatically, and rename instances on all keyframesfyoucher1
    • yep - this doesn't solve the issue you have at all - I always did this and had the same problem.fadein11
    • I have solved this by copy paste the symbol into a new flash doc, renamed the objects in the library and copy pasted them back into my anim. would that work?uan
    • not sure if auto renaming worked on importing a library from another flash doc into the library.uan
    • new flash doc will work of course lol - but what if you want to similar MCs in one flash file.fadein11
    • to = twofadein11
