Edit Class Definition is not saving

[mattb77259948]

Hello, I'm taking a class and we're using Animate CC, and I am in need of help. We are supposed to create a new symbol for a timer in a game.

I successfully created it, and am now adding the code. It instructs to right click the timer in the library, go to properties, and click edit class definition.

When I add the code we are supposed to add, I am supposed to save it, so I do that and save the .as file.

To make sure it works, the only code we're supposed to add is a trace code that will say a message in the output menu.

When I run it though, it does not give a message.

So I reopen the code, doing the same thing...properties...edit class definition.

The code is reverted to the previous code and my code is not saved anywhere.

How am I suppose to solve this?

Thank you.

The code that is in .as files is external. Doing a save of the FLA won't do a save of the .as code. Either remember to do a save after changing the .as code, or you could use the File menu Save All option.
