multiple .png turn each into a keyframe

Hello all. I have 250 png. I'd like for each to be in its own keyframe.
Is there a way for me to do that without dragging each one in one by one? Or to create a movie symbol that does the same?

I have tried selecting all frames from the library, then convert to symbol, movie but when I open the symbol, it looks like there's only the very first frame.
Thank you

    Hi. Try this:

    1. Rename all images with sequential numbers like 001name.png, 002name.png, etc. You can do it automatically with Adobe Bridge: Run tasks from Tools menu, batch rename files, and auto-stack HDR and panorama images
    2. Import all images in Animate as a sequence: How to import an image sequence, change all frames, then export it in Adobe Animate or Adobe Flash - YouTube

    That is all!

    Renaming 250 files might take a while. Instead you could import them all into the same frame, select them, then right-click Distribute to Keyframes. Command-shift-k or control-shift-k will trigger that too.
