Work with library items using keyboard shortcuts 1 To copy or paste a selected library item, press Control+X (Windows) or Command+X (Macintosh) to cut the item, or press Control+C (Windows) or Command+C (Macintosh) to copy the item. 2 To paste a cut or copied item, click the Stage or in another library to set the insertion point, and press Control+V (Windows) or Command+V (Macintosh) to paste in the center of the Stage; or press Control+Shift+C (Windows) or Command+Shift+C (Macintosh) to paste in place (in the same location as the original). To cut, copy, and paste items, use the following criteria: • Cut or copy one item or multiple items. • Cut or copy an item from the Library panel and paste it onto the Stage or into another library, or paste a folder into another library. • You cannot paste a shape from the Stage into the library. • You cannot paste a library item into a common library, because common libraries cannot be modified. However, you can create a common library. • When you paste a library item onto the Stage, the item is centered. • If you paste a folder, each item in the folder is included. • To paste a library item into a folder in the destination library, click the folder before pasting. • You can paste a library item into a different location in the same library where it originated. • If you attempt to paste a library item into a location containing another item by the same name, select whether to replace the existing item. See also "Work with common libraries" on page 68 Undo, redo, and history Undo, Redo, and Repeat commands To undo or redo actions on individual objects, or all objects within the current document, specify either object-level or document-level Undo and Redo commands (Edit > Undo or Edit Redo). The default behavior is document-level Undo and Redo. You cannot undo some actions when using object-level Undo. Among these are entering and exiting Edit mode; selecting, editing, and moving library items; and creating, deleting, and moving scenes. To remove deleted items from a document after using the Undo command, use the Save And Compact command. To reapply a step to the same object or to a different object, use the Repeat command. For example, if you move a shape named shape_A, select Edit > Repeat to move the shape again, or select another shape, shape_B, and select Edit > Repeat to move the second shape by the same amount. By default, Flash supports 100 levels of undo for the Undo menu command. Select the number of undo and redo levels, from 2 to 9999, in Flash Preferences.

Undo, redo, and history
Undo, Redo, and Repeat commands
To undo or redo actions on individual objects, or all objects within the current document, specify either object-level
or document-level Undo and Redo commands (Edit
> Undo or Edit Redo). The default behavior is document-level
Undo and Redo.
You cannot undo some actions when using object-level Undo. Among these are entering and exiting Edit mode;
selecting, editing, and moving library items; and creating, deleting, and moving scenes.
To remove deleted items from a document after using the Undo command, use the Save And Compact command.
To reapply a step to the same object or to a different object, use the Repeat command. For example, if you move a
shape named shape_A, select Edit
> Repeat to move the shape again, or select another shape, shape_B, and select
Edit
> Repeat to move the second shape by the same amount.
By default, Flash supports 100 levels of undo for the Undo menu command. Select the number of undo and redo
levels, from 2 to 9999, in Flash Preferences.
