March 13, 2008 at 12:42 pmHave you looked at all 4 of the Quick Start images?
Have you looked in the html docs for “moving an emitter” — it’s pretty close to the start of tutorial 1.
The answer is you’re in “Add” mode, which adds an emitter whenever you click on the stage. Use the toolbar button to toggle between “Add” and “Select” modes.
If you still are having problems, please post as much details on what you’re doing so I can tell you where you’re going wrong.
Alan.
