Surely removeMovieClip also removes duplicates of that movieClip?

1

Hi guys,

I’m getting rather disgruntled with Flash’s contradictory statements. I just need someone to clarify one thing for me; is it true that if you apply removeMovieClip to a movieClip instance, it also removes all of its duplicate instances? When I try to apply this principle, for some bizarre reason, it only just deletes the original instance and NOT any of its duplicates:


function stopSimulation():Void {

    cell_mc.swapDepths(999);
    cell_mc.removeMovieClip();

}

Can somebody please fill me in.

Many thanks
