HELP: Control MCs with AS placed on the timeline

[BUroKHUli]

Hello,

I have a question on how to control an MC using AS which is placed in the timeline.

Here is the scenario:
I have an MC named “backMC” placed on the main stage. My other MC named “showcase” is also placed in the main stage on a different layer. On “showcase” last frame, I wanted to add an AS that would make my “backMC” play.

I tried to add this AS on the last frame of “showcase” but didn’t get any result.

_parent.backMC.gotoAndPlay(“up”);

Question:
Am I doing things right? Or is it not possible to control it my way?

Thank You

Hey,

Its very much possible what ur saying. And your code should also looks right to me. Still you can try this:

tellTarget(“_root.backMC”) {
gotoAndPlay(“up”); //please check the label name u wrote is correct :h:
}

I thought tellTarget is a depreciated AS already?
