Flash Extension: Break Symbol Into Layers
I’d written an extension a while back that Convert a Timeline into a Symbol. David Stiller sent me a note yesterday wondering if I had an extension to do the opposite: break a symbol out onto a timeline (and retain the symbol’s layers). I didn’t have one yet, but it sounded like an interesting challenge, and something that I could certainly have used on a few past projects. So, a few hours after work I had something together, and here it is.

Thanks, Mostafa. Glad you like the site. Are you installing them with Extension Manager CS4? Perhaps they’re being installed in an older version. Any additional information would help me troubleshoot.

Mostafa,
I’m not sure if I understand the problem. If this is a general Flash problem/question, the Adobe Forums are the best place to get answers. If this a question about an extension on this site, I’ll need a little more information about the problem (and the steps to reproduce it).

Dear Justin,
I thought this might be two Extension.
Thank anyway

This one is very useful. Now I can properly import swf files into After effects (otherwise symbols would be paused).
If you need an idea for an other extension: break all symbols into layers at once.
