HI guys I was wondering if any of you could help me with this problem I’m having.

 

Iv created a character on illustrator for riging, Iv used separate layers for all parts of the character I would like to be moveable. 

When I import it in to animate I can’t use the bone tool. In YouTube videos Iv see people puppeting however they have only one layer for their character and have thir layes in ther libary and when I import mine its on all individual layers and no layers in libary. Iv also been told to make them in to simbles but I don’t know how I’m very new to the softwere.

first, create an empty movieclip (eg, your_character) and then import to stage while maintaining layers.

 

p.s. you'll probably want to learn about layer parenting, too.

p.p.s. you can't use an html5/canvas project with the one tool nor with layer parenting
