Merry Xmas flashers.
I’m trying to access a function and a movieclip on the main time line from within a Movieclip. In ActionScript 2.0 days, this would suffice:
_root.exchangeMovies();
_root.myContainerMC.gotoAndPlay(1);
Now, I know we don’t use the underscore in as 3.0; thus, we just use the word “root”. However, I tried to use just “root” or “parent” but that’s not working. Here’s the error message:
**
1061: Call to a possibly undefined method exchangeMovies through a reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObject.**
Any assistance will be so grand. Thank you.
ActionScript 3.0 made alot of issues hard for beginner and intermediate programs as Colin Moock charged in this lengthy article: http://www.insideria.com/2008/07/the-charges-against-actionscri.html
