Fla Animate CC 2019 does not work in Animate CC 2018

In Animate CC I added some movieclips with linkage name BlackMc with Javascript

for(var i = 0; i < 5; i++){

var mc = new lib.BlackMc();

mc.x = 200 + i* 20;

mc.gotoAndStop(i);

mc.y = 200;

this.addChild(mc);

}

I have put another movieclip on the stage by hand. Lets call it mc2

When I open this fla file in Animate 2018 and publish it there is a problem, the BlackMc Movieclips are in the upper left corner.

If there is no mc2 it works fine in Animate 2018.

If I export the frames and copy the Movieclip BlackMc in a new fla File in AnimateCC 2018 it will work.

I have also the problems that some files does not open in Animate CC 2019

i don't see that unless advanced layers are enabled in the 2019 file.

disable advanced layers (modify>document>untick 'use advanced layers').

The advanced layers is a great new add-on but seems a lot of folks are having issues when they try to code.

Advanced layers were added for the animator, not the programmer. So If you are programming Advanced layers should be turned off.
