I tried this one ([http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/effects/create-a-static-distortion-effect-using-the-displacement-map-filter/](http://active.tutsplus.com/tutorials/effects/create-a-static-distortion-effect-using-the-displacement-map-filter/)) and it works. All I need to do now is to put it NOT in the timeline but inside a movieclip.

It works well when the button is on the timeline but when it’s inside a movieclip, the packages can’t even find it.

Any idea how the packages can find the button that is inside a movieclip?

Yes. I know the import and include commands. What I want to know is the directory (or Parent-Child) of AS3 Packages.
