Setting up Layers

If you are like me you are mostl likely to have all your illustration in one single layer !..If you are! …Prepare your work by placing all of your objects in separte layers. At this point you should have in mind how your file will be working in flash . So just separate all of your work and place different symbols / objects in different layers . This will give you greater ability to modify or animate them while they are imported into flash.
