List of issues#2055 Change depth in multiple frames?

Im editing an animation and i have to swap the depth of two PlaceOject. Is there a quick
way to this or do i have to go through each frame one by one? Id rather not since its over
12k frames.
An unorthodox way of doing it is to use "Replace references with other character ID" right
click item on the characters (symbols) and replace each with the other one's ID
respectively. This will work globally for the flash. It's a hacky solution, but give it a
try. If any of the swapped characters had a name and it is used in a script, strange
things may happen.
The problem with that is that it is using matrixes to animate, so each PlaceObject have
unique matrixes for each frame. And the PlaceObjects are referencing the previous frame
for the character, id -1. So even if i swap the character and matrix, or doing the same by
swapping the depth, the next frame still expects the other order. So the objects get
placed and morphed using the wrong matrix.
So i have 2 ways of going about this. Either swap the depth of the PlaceObject for every
single frame, or swap the depth for the first and then swap the matrix for the PlaceObject
for every single following frame.
I don't know about a quick way, but if it is very hard to do manually and you know a bit
Java, then you may do it via FFDec Library - see its readme at
https://github.com/jindrapetrik/jpexs-decompiler/blob/master/libsrc/ffdec_lib/README.md
I will give it a try.
