Hello!

In AS2 if I were inside a (mc1) and wrote \_parent.mc2.gotoAndPlay(7)

the movie just did go outside the mc1, enter mc2 and played the 7th frame.

But on AS3 appears an error message

1119: Access of possibly undefined property inst\*\*\*\* through a reference with static type flash.display:Stage.
