Referencing a movieclip within a movieclip

If I have movieclip named box01_mc inside movieclip btn01_mc and I wanted to change box01_mc’s alpha to 0 on the rollover of btn01_mc how would I write this? I tried writing the following code on btn01_mc but it didn’t work:

on (rollOver) {
box01_mc._alpha = 0
}

Thanks!

Works for me :eye:

That code is correct, are you sure you’ve given your instance an instance name ? Not a symbol name in the library, an instance name.

on (rollOver) {
box01_mc._alpha = 0
}

thats right, u probly havnt givin it an instance name as was said b4. change the instance nme in the properties panel.

Skribble - in static event handlers such as on(rollOver), this isn’t necessary.

Ok, must be something goofy in my code. Thanks!

yeh, haha it just clicked (-:
