Question

Using layer depth (Z depth) within a nested symbol

Hi Guy's

is it possible to Use layer depth within a nested symbol? I have a character i've created with each limb on a seperate layer, once the the character is complete I like to nest all the layers into a single graphic symbol, 

kind of like having a master/global symble that I can move, rotate or scale on the canvas and then double click on it and animate everything within  the symbol as I see fit, the only problem is that adobe animate removes/prevents using layer depth as you're no longer on the main timeline, 

 

Please any kind of input would me appreciated

    Currently it's not possible. Layer depth is only usable on the main timeline.
