Hi All,  
this is my first post. Greeting to every one.🔗 (\<-- Zelda rulz)

I’ve got problem, here’s the explanation:

I’ve done the Tutorial written here by Kirupa on how to display an hover caption

[Tutorial](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/captions3.htm)

It works perfectly in the stand alone movie.  
But i need to put this in another movie as external.

When i do so, it doesn’t work , actually 'cos it drag ALL the external movie and not only the item i want to do a Hover Effect.

Why this??

Maybe because it consider the command

\_root.x = 1 (and so on whenever there’s \_root)  
the root of the Main movie and not the one of the external??

Must i correct all the code with level1 or there’s another way??  
I can’t figure it out.

I Hope to get some help.  
Thanks anyway.  
Sup^

I think you’ll have to remove the

```auto
_root

```

if you want to make the movie loaded externally.
