Please help me with this. It is absolutely driving me insane. I don't understand why the stage for a movie clip and a graphic button is not identical to that of the main timeline in a scene. Why are the dimensions so different? And why when I try and "paste in place" between the two they are so drastically off.

I am finished with what I am doing in the movie clip. I am going to the main timeline and adding the actionscrip to load the movie into the right level . . . and the movie clip loads almost completely out of frame. So I go and see what the problem is. And I start trying to repaste in place all the graphics from the main timeline into the movie clip. And it is pasting them out of frame/off stage.

Is it even possible to have the stage in a movie clip or a graphic symbol identical in terms of dimensions and active space as the main timeline. You specify all of this information prior to designing. Why the heck would you want a movie clip or button to be any different?

I have spent hours dealing with this problem.

Would you please tell me how to fix this PLEASE!!
