Selecting and editing frames in the Score

You can select a range of frames in the Score and then copy, delete, or paste all the contents of the selected frames.

To move, copy, or delete all the contents of a range of frames:

1 | Double-click in the frame channel to select frames.
2 | If you want to move or copy frames, choose Edit > Cut Frames or Edit > Copy Frames. If you want to delete frames, choose Edit > Clear Frames or press Delete.
| If you cut, clear, or delete the selected frames, Director removes the frames and closes up the empty space.

Note: To delete a single frame, you can also choose Insert > Remove Frame.

3 | To paste frames that you have cut or copied, select any frame and choose Edit > Paste Sprites.
| If no frame is selected when you choose Edit > Paste Sprites, the Paste Options dialog box lets you decide how you want the frames to be pasted.

To add new frames:

1 | Select a frame in the Score.
2 | Choose Insert > Frames.
3 | Enter the number of frames to insert.
| The new frames appear to the right of the selected frame. Sprites in the frames you select are extended or tweened. (For more information about tweening, see Animation overview.)
