I have a problem with dragging a ball. Thing is that I have a ball for which I set up size, direction and speed before launching. Inside the movieclip "ball " I have three movieclips: “\_ball”(the real ball), “sizeSet”(a bar and a slider to set up size) and “vectors”(the speed and direction). “sizeSet” and “vectors” become invisible after I click a “ready” button.  
I still want to drag the ball after that, or . if I click on it, to resize and reset speed and direction. The thing is that “\_root.ball.\_ball” doesn’t “feel” the click.  
If anyone of you guys have any idea, please share it!
