Layer copy and motion tween problem.

[bongp]

I have been trying to make a live audience in animate, I have successfully generated 4 different characters that have a motion tween applied to the arms. I was hoping to duplicate the layers and move them to different positions on the stage  to build up a arm waving crowd . However when I duplicate  layers for the characters and move them to a different position on the stage the arms move ok but they also move back to the original position on the stage where they were duplicated. Any helpful suggestions

Can you post a screenshot of your timeline here?

Hi Preran thanks for you reply, I seemed to have solved the problem,when I

moved the object I was also putting a xy motion upon expanding the timeline

I can delete the x y motion which left the z motion working.Again thanks

for your reply.
