Creating sprites

Create a sprite by dragging a cast member to either the Stage or the Score; the sprite appears in both places. New sprites, by default, span 30 frames.

  1. Click to select the frame in the Score where you want the sprite to begin.
  2. From the Cast window, in either List or Thumbnail view, do one of the following:
    • Drag a cast member to the position on the Stage where you want to place the sprite.
    • Drag a cast member to the Score. Director places the new sprite in the center of the Stage.
    • To create a sprite one frame long, press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac) and drag a cast member to the Stage or Score.
