Hello,

I encountered a problem with my ascripting today. I have this nested movie on the main timeline called “mainnav\_mc”, inside that symbol are a bunch of movies, and one of them is “nav\_gallery”. Now on frame one of “nav\_gallery”, how do I call the “mainnav\_mc” to play to another frame?

This one doesn’t seem to work obviously 🙂

\_root.mainnav\_mc.nav\_gallery.gotoAndPlay(“hide”);

I also tried \_parent but it’s not working either.

Thank you so much
