How to Generate Spritesheet from a 'problematic' animated Symbol in Flash Pro CS6?
- by Arthur Wulf White
In the new Flash Pro CS6 there is an option to generate spriteheet from a symbol. I used these tutorials:

And it works really well!
An artist I'm working with created a bunch of assets for a game. One of them is a walking person as seen from a top-down view.
You can find the .fla here:

(If this does not work let me know, it is the first time I used Google Drive to share files)
1 .When I press ctrl+enter I can see it is moving. When I look for the animation, I do not seem to find it. When I select to create a spritesheet, flash suggest creating a spritesheet with one frame in the base pose and no other (animation) frames.
What is causing this and how do I correct it?
2 .I want to convert it to a sprite sheet for 32 angles of movement. Is there any magical easy way to get this done? Is there a workaround without using Flash CS6 to do the same thing?
