Is doing my head in! I’ve got this really great code that combines duplicate mc’s based on dynamic input that darg left and right, but the interaction in between is flash 4 and I’m have problems with all these /: things everywhere and it’s making the bits of MX that I want to use fail because it’s outputting as a flash 4 document.

Why when I’m one step inside a movie clip on the timeline, would /:tmi not be the same as \_root.tmi?

Any pointers appreciated.
