Thanks a lot for the info you provided, but what i was trying to do was
creating a sprite out of nowhere (meaning no placeholder on the stage) and
from the info you provided i deduce that{s not possible if there are no
placeholders where my sprites would be.
I'm afraid you misunderstood; the technique I detailed will work without placeholders. You can use it to put any sprite onto any empty channel.
By explicitly puppeting the empty channel first, you can do exactly what you need to do:
puppetSprite someChannel, TRUE sprite(someChannel).member = theMemberYouWant sprite(someChannel).ink = theInkYouWant sprite(someChannel).loc = theLocYouWant
