duplicateMovieClip

1

I am using duplicateMovieClip to layout a random design on the stage. After I am done I want to print out the design. I read the manual for the print(); function but for it to work it requires all the clips to be within another movieclip. How do I duplicateMovieClip into another movieclip?

This is my code:

for(i=0;i<total;i++){
duplicateMovieClip(box, “box”+i, i);
}

You cannot duplicate a movieclip onto another timeline. So either put the original into the movieclip to be printed or use attachMovie() instead.

You can print a frame using the print function - never the less you might want to look into the PrintJob class :slight_smile:
