StartDrag dragging children?

Hi All,
I’m trying to drag a movie clip which (if I remember correctly) is easy. Right? Well, the movie is an outline and a background movie that I use as a dynamically coloured background. And it’s dragging that separately, leaving the outline in normal place. I tried using useCapture = true on the event listener but then it seems to ONLY drag the background and not the whole movie.

Any ideas?

I know I can check the MouseEvent.target but that’s pretty messy trying to keep it as reusable as possible (and can’t pass args with event listener and setting a global var also seems messy)

Thanks in advance,
Martin
