Splitting and joining sprites
You might need to split an existing sprite into two separate sprites or join separate sprites. If, for
example, you created a complex animation as separate sprites and now want to move the entire
sequence in the Score, you would join the sprites. Splitting and joining also lets you update
movies created with older versions of Director that might have several fragmented sprites.
To split an existing sprite:
1
In the Score, click the frame within a sprite where you want the split to occur.
The playhead moves to the selected frame.
2
Select Modify > Split Sprite.
Director splits the sprite into two new ones.
To join separate sprites into a single sprite:
1
Select the sprites you want to join, as described in “Selecting sprites” on page 158.
Director fills the gaps between the selected sprites. You can also select sprites in several
channels. Director joins selected sprites in each individual channel.
2
Select Modify > Join Sprites.
