i’m trying to use the TransitionManager class in an external SWF i’m loading into my main movie. on the main movie it works fine, but inside my “container” nothing seems to work… what am i doing wrong?

[AS]  
import mx.transitions._;  
import mx.transitions.easing._;  
TransitionManager.start(items\_button, {type:Fly, direction:Transition.IN, duration:3, easing:Elastic.easeOut, startPoint:2});  
[/AS]
