I teach Graphics in a secondary school and have just completed a project with 60 yr9 students in which they all created a Flash animation. I now have 60 .swf files which i want to use in an animation for the school web site.

I have imported the files into a flash doc and they appear as movie clips in the libary. When the movie clips play the original stage size of the .swf file is lost and the content spills out. How do i set the size of a movie clip so as symbols move out of a set area they cannot be seen?
 
Confused!

Were all the animations (60 external .swfs) done at the same stage size?

Are you saying that in this new global main movie you're seeing unwanted stuff (outside the actual stage area) from those movies, or that you're trying to scale them down, to all fit in your main container clip holder?
