Is there a way to change the position of the registration point inside a Movie Clip using Flash5 ? I've found stuff online for older Flash versions but not CS5.

I wasn't aware of that.

As far as I know, all you need to do is:

  1. edit the MovieClip(Dobule-click)
  2. move the contents of the MovieClip relative to the crosshair on stage

If you want to match the transform point with the registration point:

  1. Go one level up
  2. Use the Transform Tool(Q)
  3. Double-click Transform Tool's circle.
