Automating tasks

While creating your documents, you may want to perform the same task numerous times. You can create a new command in the Commands menu from steps in the History panel and reuse the command multiple times. Steps are replayed exactly as they were originally performed. You can't modify the steps as you replay them.

You should create and save a new command if there's a chance you'll want to use a given set of steps again in the future, especially if you want to use those steps again the next time you start Flash. Saved commands are retained permanently (unless you delete them). Steps that you copy using the History panel Copy Steps command are discarded when you copy something else. See Copying and pasting steps between documents.
