I’m using a Movie Clip (mc1) as a button and for it to be able to function with a mouse click, I placed a Button symbol (b1) inside of the Movie Clip and put some ActionScript onto the nested Button symbol:
on (release) {
_parent.attachMovie("mc2_id", "dot", 100);
dot._x=150;
dot._y=100;
}
As you can see, I’m trying to get another Movie Clip (mc2) onto the stage and that part works fine, but for some reason it keeps ending up at the top-left corner of the stage even though my code says otherwise. What am I missing? I’m including the .fla if anyone would be kind enough to look at it.
Any help appreciated.
Also, when I was setting the linkage properties for the clip to be attached, I had to enable the “Export in first frame” function just so it would work (I normally don’t since I was told it would kill a preloader if I had one); how would you export things without having this box checked if you normally don’t do that sort of thing because of a preloader?
