Is there something in actionscript that allows you to get an mc’s instance name or a way to make an mc report it’s instance name?
For example something nice and easy like this would be: this._whatIsMyInstanceName
I would like to build something like the following into an mc I’m using that is being attached in multiple instances:
this.onRelease = function(){
_parent.changeTheColourOfThisMCWithoutKnowingItsInstance(this._whatIsMyName);
}
I hope you get what I’m driving at. And I’m hoping there is a simple solution for this because it seems like an elementary thing to want to do but I was stumped trying to find something to do this in the help files.
