Hi everyone,
Is it possible to load libary items from one swf into another?
I am trying to load a set of tiles stored in one swf into a tile editor.
In the code for the tile editor it adds objects from the libary onto the stage. Is it possible to get the movieclips from another swf?
Sorry for a poor description on that.

Yes, there’s ways, but you aren’t giving me enough info to help you here. Explain what you are trying to do.

in flash mx 2004 there is the open external library option under file. It will let you pick a .fla file and open only the library for it, if that’s what you mean, otherwise you can use the loadMovieNum script to load the other .swf itself. i hope that little tidbit might help a little bit

I’m not to sure on how to use the loadMovieNum script, will this get the movie clips out of another swf into the one it was used in?
Thanks for the reply, I couldn’t find the thread.
I am using Flash 8.
