Need help with external swf with dynamic text

programming flash
1

This is in regards to Claudio’s scroller http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27214

I’m trying to implement a scroll-bar with externally loaded text the following way:

  • Create scroll.swf movie clip (works and displays the dynamic text fine)
  • load the scroll.swf file into another movie using
_root.createEmptyMovieClip

When i load the scroll.swf into another movie, i can see the scroll bars, however no text. I DID embed the fonts for the text field. I also made sure to use

 mc._lockroot = true;

But the text still doesn’t show up. Any suggestions what else i need to change/add?
