I need to access the stage from a class and bring the playhead on the timeline forward to frame 2 but I can´t access it. _I´ve been looking around here and on net but still can´t solve this problem. grrrr :upset:._

I´ve a Init-class that executes when application starts. First of all it preloads the app and then it calls a Connection-class that connects to a streaming server. When a successful connection is made I want to bring the playhead forward to frame 2. The problem is, I can´t access the stage.
