Yeah, it's indeed weird.

But I guess it's like this if advanced layers are being referenced by code.

Hi.

It's because throw is a reserved word both by AS3 and JavaScript and Animate doesn't allow layers to be named using these special words.

that makes no sense (but it is what it is). that's a string, not a key word. layer names/strings aren't even referenceable via as3/js - but are with jsfl

while scenes names (in as3, obviously) are referenceable and you can use reserved words..
