Okay. The next thing we're gonna do while we're here  is naming the instances. So when we named it before we went to modify convert  to symbol, we called him Mc Bob. Does mc Bob sound like a rapper or a dj? That's, I keep hearing. Anyway, so Mc Bob  is a space alien rapper,  but he, uh, that name space Bob is kind of a symbol name.

What we need to do is give these things,  these instances a name, okay? These instances here, I'm gonna go to properties. Um, they have no instance names at the moment. Why, um, you, why do you add instance names? It's because later on, um, when we add a little bit of code,  we're gonna do a little bit of code in this course is  we wanna control something. Say we wanna control this one, but not this one.

We wanna move this one from left to right  and this one up and down. Um, we can't control it with code  because we don't know its name. We have to give these all unique names so  that later on we could do this guy  and we can, so we know who exactly  who he is by giving him a name. And we're gonna call this guy Mc. And this is gonna be alien  and it's not gonna be very, uh, exciting. Actually, this is gonna be, um, Bob,  he's Bob four in my little list.

This guy, here's gonna be Mc underscore Bob one. Okay? Making sure there's no spaces in there, okay? Use underscores or hyphens and just go through  and name your instances as you're working. This will give you, it's just good habit to get into. You don't have to have them,  but later on when we start doing some  of the publishing parts  and we need to figure out who is what  and do, uh, special things to them.

Um, especially like buttons. Okay? We need to give them instance names. So we're gonna go through  and name all of ours now, MC  Bob three. And this is gonna be Mc Bob five. All right?

That's how to name your instances when you're  working in Adobe. Animate.
