Global replace for actionscript?

[mrc]

Hello,

do you know a way to replace the name of a variable throughout all the actionscript bits of a movie? Or have Macromedia postponed implementation of a global replace function? Or am I just to stupid to find it?

Cheers,
Marc

The Movie Explorer is one of the nicer surprises in the new app... you can set it to show just scripts and inspect them all at once, replace strings, more.

The movie explorer was the first place where I looked, knowing that it would help me find all the instances of a certain variable name throughout all my scripts. But I cannot find a replace function (like in the action script editor).

Soory, if I am too stupid, but, please, where exactly is this replace function?

Cheers,
Marc

I did this in flash4 and that time I had a stringvariable named "text0". To make my stringvar named "text0" and rename it to "text1" i had to seperate the letters inside "text0" from eachother and then put them together again and name that variable "text1"...

this was kind of hard but eventually i made it! I guess you have to do the same way in flash5....

good luck
