Why aren 't you holding Shift and double clicking the outlines/fills then
moving it? This is an indispensible feature that 's been there for almost
all versions.

I personally hate it... Though I see its use, it never seems to work out for
me; I always end up losing work because I can 't always see what 's being
undone.

Not as happy as I could be.

Never mind.

Macromedia 's site:

Changes to "Undo " and the History Panel
The Undo feature (Edit > Undo) in previous versions of Flash was
object-specific: There was a separate set of undo steps for different
objects, such as the Stage, movie clips, and library. In Flash MX 2004, the
undo stack is now document-specific.

Anyone else think this sucks? Does anyone have any tips/tricks to offer up?
I 'm thinking I must be missing something "cool " about this change other than
the history panel.
