Loadmovie paths problem

programming flash
1

Hi there! I wonder if anyone can help me with this:

Its kinda hard to explain…

_root.movieclip._visible = false;

I have that code within a movieclip in its timeline. I use it to hide a movieclip on the main stage at a certain point in this movieclip. It works fine like this when run alone - the movieclip on the main stage disappears.

But when I loadmovie this movie into another movie, the root wouldnt be the same and the movieclip is no longer invisible. I’ve tried messing about with ‘this’ and ‘parent’ but i cant get is to become invisible when l loadmovie it in.

Not a very good explanation but hopefully you will get the gist…

Thanks for anyhelp!

Cheers

just add the _level of your loaded movie in front of your action…

_level1._root.movieclip._visible = false;

Thanks for your reply,

If I loaded the movie into a target would it be:

Holder._root.movieclip._visible = false;

Or still _level1 ?

Cheers
