Apple 2 manual Flattening an Actions List, To flatten your Actions list

Flattening an Actions List

You can flatten all the actions in an Actions list into a single action. Flattening actions renders the actions into the file, reducing the file’s complexity and size. Remember, however, that once you flatten an Actions list, you cannot reorder or edit the actions: after flattening, the actions you flattened become one action.

To flatten your Actions list:

1Move the Action Insert bar directly below the last action you want to flatten.

2Choose “Flatten audible actions” or “Flatten all actions” from the Actions pop-up menu.

ÂFlatten audible actions: Flattens only the actions above the Action Insert bar.

ÂFlatten all actions: Flattens all the actions in the Actions list, regardless of the location of the Action Insert bar.

Make sure the Action Insert bar is below the last action you want to flatten.

Then choose a flatten actions option from the Actions pop-up menu.

The actions are flattened.
