    symbol properties?

    Is it possible to access a symbols properties via actionscript? I know you can access some a movieclip instance properties, but can you access a symbols properties?

    Just wondering,

    If it ain't broke, I probably haven't touched it yet.

    do you mean something like:

    symbol_X.onEnterFrame = function(){
    this._alpha = 0;
    }

    ? the above will set symbol_X's alpha (transparency) to 0.
    in the actions panel, click on the book in the upper right, and look for the properties "book"; you'll see all the properties you can affect with as.

    hope this helps.
