78 Using Symbols, Instances, and Library Assets
You can share symbols among documents as shared library assets during authoring or at
runtime. For runtime shared assets, you can link assets in a source document to any number
of destination document, without importing the assets into the destination document. For
assets shared during authoring, you can update or replace a symbol with any other symbol
available on your local network. See
“Using shared library assets” on page 104 .
If you import library assets that have the same name as assets already in the library, you can
resolve naming conflicts without accidentally overwriting existing assets. See
“Resolving
conflicts between library assets” on page 108 .
For an introduction to using symbols and instances, see “Basic Tasks: Create Symbols and
Instances” in Flash Tutorials.
