   Hi Martin
   Great Help indeed!
   a bit embarrassing, i couldn’t get it to work though
   i tried a few links from youtube
   checked them manually on tubegrip
   no success still
   are there any other requirements besides connecting the Main class as the Document Class to a new FLA?
   cheers
