Working in Animate with a file created in Indesign

Hi, I have a design made in Indesign that I have to animate in Adobe Animate.

I have searched the forum and I have seen that I have to export a .fla file to be able to do it. The problem is that when I import it, it doesn't import the individual elements and editable elements, but it imports everything together as if it was an image.

Is there any way to import a file and that all the elements are editable?

Thank you very much 🙂

Just copy everything in Indesign and paste it into adobe animate. That usually works best for me.

Copy/paste may have worked in the past, but it crashes Animate anytime I have text. It would be nice if there was a native import/export from InDesign to Animate.

That is, in indesign you select the elements, press ctrl+c, go to animate, press ctrl+v... and you paste the separated elements? Because to me it sticks them together and I can't separate them 😞
