Question about Movie Clips

programming flash
1

Hello guys!..I need some help here.

Well I’m a noob with ActionScript and I need help with this.

I have a movieclip in my library already created. I don’t want to put it in the time line, I just want to play it with ActionScript.

I’m trying to call the MovieClip from my Library and play it on the stage but doesn’t work.

How do you play the movieclip that is in your library on the stage, without putting the movieclip in the timeline?. I know there is a way to do it with objects and this is what I do:

myclip = new MovieClip();
myclip.attachMovie(“ID of the movie here”);

then when I want to play it I type this in the frame that I want:

myclip.play();

I know that I’m wrong cause doesn’t work…please HELP!!!..and Thanks a lot for your time.

you need to save the movie you want to know as a separate swf file and then place it in the same place as the movie that will load this movie so you should have 2 swf files the one you want to load and the one that will act as the loader

don’t forget that the movieclip in the library has to have “enable for flash runtime export” enabled.
