Print button in a loaded movie

programming flash
1

Hello folks, I was hoping my first post here wouldn’t be looking for help but hey :slight_smile:

So heres my query:
I’ve got a print button sitting in a movie clip which works fine nornally using this code:
// (“printscenario” is the target we want to print)
getURL(“print:”, “printscenario”);

the problem is that in the finished project, this movie (printscenario.swf) is being loaded into a base movie the button ceases to function…ie it wont open the print dialogue box.

Can i adapt the getUrl command to fix this?..or anything else?

Thanks in advance for any help.

check if this works
code:
// (“printscenario” is the target we want to print)
getURL(“print:”, “basemovie.printscenario”);
or // (“printscenario” is the target we want to print)
getURL(“print:”, “_root.printscenario”);

thanks for responding Gupps. Fraid neither of those worked, I reckon the problem is at the “print;” side of the command…
