Parent/child communication

1

I’ve replicated my problem in the attached files.

Index.fla executes a loadMovieNum, loading the movie bbb.fla. bbb.fla tries to change the alpha of an object in the parent movie, Index.fla, but it does not work.

so say i have a button in bbb.fla, which goes:

on(release){
_root.box._alpha = 10;
}

but this does not change the alpha of instance box in the file index.fla. i’ve tried to change _root to _parent, and even tried a _root.MovieClipInstance.box… etc.

:d: Please help

Umm… wheres “box”? the alpha button is named sA

edit: didn’t open the other fla, sorry heh… working on it now

[AS]on(release){
_level0.box._alpha = 10;
}[/AS]
