Component question

okay i need to change the text in a movieclip on a scroll plane.
_root.something.text = “this”
what do i put to get up to the text. Like the movieclip name or what?

rt click go edit in place.

have a peek yaself.

when you find the textfield u want, make a note of the path…
and dont forget to give the actual component an instance name :wink:

Prophet.

ya i dont see what you mean becuase you cant see the text field in the plane it loads it afterward, so whats the path

wel have a look at the AS inside then… when u spot something like createTextField() work it out from there

Prophet.

EDIT:- if you can set the text in the properties panel then just take a peek at the component definition (rt click on the library item) and set the variable that has a name of text or whatever to the text yu want

or and example of a scroll plane with text loaded from the first frame.

nvm im an idiot, thanks for the help though i got it to work
