Exchanging cast members
The Exchange Cast Members command changes the cast member associated with a particular
sprite to the currently selected cast member; that is, it replaces the member reference for the
selected sprite with the member reference of the selected cast member.
This command modifies the selected sprites in the score; it doesn’t modify cast members. The
command is enabled only when both a sprite and a cast member are selected.
If multiple cast members are selected, the command associates only the first selected cast member
with the sprite.
You can execute this command while the movie is playing.
To exchange cast members:
1
Select a sprite in the Score.
2
Select a cast member in the Cast window, a different cast member than the one already
associated with the sprite.
3
Select Edit > Exchange Cast Members.
The selected cast member is associated with the sprite.
