I am trying to target a movie clip within a movie clip.

I have the following action script on it
on (release) {_root.a.gotoAndStop(2); }
So on frame 2 of a I have a button (instance name b) which also has two frames and a stop action on frame 1. All I want to do is click on the button and make it go to frame 2. It should work but it isn't Here is the actionscript on the button (b) on (press) {_root.a.b.gotoAndPlay(2); }

i am trying to use the Tween class to change the size of movie clip to certain height.the code works for me but when resizing the parent, it effects the child.i tried the height and scaleY property for the thum, but does not work.
I have a movie clip in my main movie. The movie clip has buttons on it that tell where the play head should go in the main movie. I'm using this script;
[AS] _parent.gotoandStop(28); [/AS]
The play head goes to the right frame but it keeps playing even though I've specified it to "gotoAndStop" at frame 28. I've tried using labels and addressing it that way but same thing happens.

how to target to the another movie clip to animate?I was using code as below but the output is not really correct.It seemed something is duplicating (I just suppected)
PHP Code: import flash.display.MovieClip; var mc_Ripple:MovieClip = new Ripple_Text() ;
I have three small images on the stage in frame 1. I also have an invisible button symbol over one of the images and have given this button an instance name. On frame 2 there are the same three images but with a lower opacity level and also on this frame 2 is a movie clip instance containing an animation. I need an onRollover event connected to the button on frame 1 so that when the user rolls over it, the playhead jumps to frame two and shows the images and also plays the animation in the movie clip.
I've applied the following code to the button symbol on frame 1:
and I've also put a stop action on the last frame of the animation within the movie clip in frame 1 so that it won't loop.
The problem is that when I test the movie, when you roll over the image on frame 1 it just continually loops between frames 1 and 2 - it doesn't play the animation on frame 2 as I thought it would.
I have a movie clip on the main timeline calledbg_graphics, I want to target a movie clip within that movieclip called bg1_mc. to gotoAndPlay frame 2.The bg_graphics clip goes to a random frame within that movieclip, there are 3 frames. 1st has bg1_mc, 2nd has bg2_mc, and 3rd has bg3_mc. How could i determine which file to gotoAndPlay frame 2 in bg_graphics when i don't know exactly which frame its going to be on, let alone target a movie clip within a movie clip.I used this code to generate the random frame
function randomBg() { //generate random BG based on random frames within the MC randFrame = random(3)+1;[code].....

I loaded this "slider" swf into a "sliderHolder" on my index swf file. inside that loaded swf there's a movice clip called icon_mc. I'm trying to target it and make it go to a specific y position within that loaded swf on a MouseEvent inside the index.swf. I can't seem to make it work.I triedI have traced sliderHolder and it says it's empty.I have traced sliderLoader and it gives a Loader.So how do I access the movieClip if I just have those two as references?Here's what I have and want to do in code:
Code: Select all var sliderLoader:Loader = new Loader(); sliderLoader.load( new URLRequest("sliding/ImageBar.swf"));
I am having trouble targeting a movie clip that was dynamically generated from information in an XML document. Basically, what I want to do is be able to manipulate the movie clip after it was generated by the initial function. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to properly target the clip even though I am pretty sure I have the proper title and location (tried both _root. and _level0.).[URL]the string at the bottom - "_level0.mc_image2" - is the name of the last movie clip (with an image inside) to the right.

I've put the files I am working with online for reference:[URL]
If you load the swf [URL] ) the string at the bottom - "_level0.mc_image2" - is the name of the last movie clip (with an image inside) to the right.
Also, if you look at the code, you'll see this is a modification of the portfolio from: [URL]
I have a looped sound and some components in my main movie (scroll bar) which for some reason is really bogging down my swf and causing the preloader bar not to show up until like 46% or something ridiculous.
So I am trying to solve the problem by having a preloader swf as suggested by Kode in this thread. However, now all my targeting is messed up in my main movie. Everything that was _root has to change but I can't tell what to load it into. I tried using _parent, _parent._parent, _root.container_mc (which is a blank movie clip created in the preloader swf that main is loaded into after the preloader is 100%) and others but nothing works. Even the simple looped sound which was originally just _root.backsound.start(0,999) can't be targeted. how to target things on my main stage based on the preloader swf?
Im trying to control a movie clip that is part of a swf from another swf file. For example. My main flash file is called index.swf. this flash files loads another flash file called image.swf within image.swf are several movie clips (mc_1, mc_2) that I need to control show hide. I need to do so directly from index.swf.This would be flash 9 action script 2.Here is the code i am trying to work with. "filter" is a movieclip on index.swf. mc_1 and so on are movie clips on image.swf. What is the path i need to define before "mcfadeTo..."[code]
I have a swf which contains a main menu bar along the top which has been added dynamically at run time. ALl the controls for this bar live inside btnHold One of these buttons loads in a new swf. There is a button within this second swf that I want to use to control the main menu bar in the top layer (I want to make it invisible for a time, or get its layer and then ensure that its not too high etc etc)However, I just can't work out how to target this btnHold from within the newly loaded swf.
Within ninja.swf, there are six scenes, and in the later 5 scenes, there is an movie clip (consule2)with has a halfdozen buttons (of which one is home_btn) that serve as the navigation across the site. So, in the consule2, I set up an Actions layer, and for Home_btn, have created this piece of code:
I have movie clip A and move clip B (in the root). Move clip A load data form external swf. The swf also load data from xml (the data is xml file name) till here work perfectly.What I want is, to pass the xml file name from the move clip A swf to movie clip B on button click. What Movie clip B do is load the xml file passed from the move clip A swf.
How can I change what movie clip an object is contained in after it has been added to the stage? I want a movie clip to start out in the main stage but them move into another movie clip so that when I move the containing movie clip the sub clip moves as well.
I'm checking for the name of the parent movie clip which is something like MyClip2 or MyClip3 ...when i trace the variable MyID, it displays the right number but when i try to do basic operation on it, it acts like a string not a number..
[AS] on (press) { if (this._name.substr(0, 6) == "MyClip") { MyID = this._name.substr(6, 6);[c
